If it was called ... Minerva?
LOL.
Don't know, my friend...Really don't know.
But this is not really the problem of the name, as it happens the same to me with the PanoInverse G.O.
Still don't know what to think.
I was enthusiast while seeing it for the 1st time, then, I want to see it in the flesh for a definitive judgement.
Best.

Counterpoints
Anthony and Kong, First - thanks for an in-depth review and on-the-wrist test drive. Next - as you mentioned, the power of digital macro photography is too scary for regualr consumers. We are not surprised to find flaws even on pieces by "acknowledged" ma...

I should have put a smiley face in there..
Thanks for your comments, Melvyn. You're right about dress watches and 'complications' of course. Actually the case of this Montblanc chronograph is rather elegantly shaped, and I can forgive Anthony describing it as a "dress watch", particularly if it wa...
Wow, Anthony, that's what I call a Review!
Informative, detailed, with very nice pics and a superb text, that's a great work, here.. Congrats to you and Kong! As for the watch, I still don't know what to think. The finish seems ok, the design is not bad, so what does this watch miss??? Legitimity?...
