Closest competition would be this one ...
... which was AFAIK the very first on the market using this combination of 2892 base movement and DD calendar module, the Nivrel perpetual:
With 38mm diameter it is smaller than the MB, and available only in stainless steel.

Montblanc SIHH 2014: Meisterstuck Heritage Perpetual Calendar.
Here are the three pictures I could take on this Watch, during the SIHH. Agressive price, classic look, nice case. The centered subdials are the consequence of the movement size, which as you can see, is small, compared to the case. But we can notice the ...
I was so looking forward to see a post on this Meisterstuck Heritage PC
Thanks for sharing these superb pictures! These are the best pictures of this new watch on the web now. And your pictures made me like this watch more. Of course I have to see it in the metal to see if the centered sub dials make them hard to read (being ...
Thanks for your comment, Robin.
I forwarded your question to the Montblanc Authorities. ;) Will keep you updated as soon as I have the answer. Best, Nicolas

There is quite some offer in this segment. I would see the GP as the closest in the style.
But financially speaking, the GP is more expensive... Best, Nicolas
First impression - it looks like Blancpain PC.
I agree with Patrick. Fantastic value which really surprises me. For those who has yet to own a PC and with limited funds, I think this Montblanc should be seriously considered. I dare not use the word "cheap" but it is very reasonable priced. Regards Lin...
Sadly I see no compelling reason...
To accept the compromises. It's a rather generic movement and module(see the Nivrel implementation , and the movement is swimming in the case. The aesthetics are nice enough, but if you're going for a "tuxedo" look, you've got to get the details right. I...
The price is one reason. But I agree that the movement is not the most interesting part of
This Watch. My main concern is the size of the movement, compared to the case. Best, Nicolas
