A peek of the Montblanc Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph Anniversary Edition
Counting down to celebration of the creation and work of Nicolas Rieussec - 'the Chronographe' in 1821, Montblanc pays hommage to the genius Nicholas Matthieu Rieussec with the issuing of the Montblanc Nicolas Rieussec Chronograph Anniversary Edition, in ...
I love this Chronograph a lot.
I would have hard time deciding which one I would take, between the platinum, for its understated but very elegant look, and the stronger white gold black dial combination. I love a lot the way they included the date in the " dial landscape "... It doesn'...
platinum...
Although I usually prefer black dials, the platinum version with white dial looks marvelous!...
Thanx
Thanx Kong, I made it during SIHH 2011 earlier this year. Soon I'll visit both manufactures and I'm very much looking forward to these visits!
Great photo! The new, simplified chronograph disks
make it look so much better and easier to read. Thanks, Mike
Kong, just curious if the WG/Black dial had luminous material?
It wouldn't make sense because the hands are not lumed but you never know. One thing I did notice...the presentation boxes are much improved Best, Mike
Need to verify ...
about the if the black dial WG model has lume. The box, yes...did not show the outer box...and nice solid thick white box ! Kong
Only 125 in Pink Gold???
The macro of the PG case back indicates XXX/125. It appears as if each metal has a different run number. Can anyone verify the quantity of each metal in this stunning offering? With my luck I would be the 126th person to order the PG version. Cheers
Here are the run numbers...
from the press release "The Anniversary Edition will be available only in a limited and individually numbered edition: 190 watches in eighteen carat red gold, 90 watches in eighteen carat white gold and 25 watches in 950 platinum. " Not many at all given ...

interesting detail on case back
Can anyone recall ever seeing a case back being used as an index for an RDM like Montblanc is doing on the back of this one? Pretty interesting.
I prefer the black dial version.
Has Montblanc developed its own silicium escapement? Regards Ling
Should be ...
tyoically, most companies do not have the machines to fabricate the components. But the design of the escapement is specific to the companies...however, it would be possible to share amount the sister companies...will ask. Black dial is not common for the...
Will be great if ever ...
comes in steel case Davo, seems like all your watches are black Kong
Yes but I think MB is trying very hard to be exclusive and
extremely selective in their point of sales. Trying to avoid the same past mistakes where poor control of inventory/flooding the market lead to a slight tarnish in the brand image in their watch collection. Now the Rieussec is something to be proud of...n...
Love the backside a lot...
I prefer the black dial but the white dial seems to handle better the "proliferation" of markings on the dial. the white on black dial markings can be distracting with the words "chronographe", "riuessec", "anniversary edition", and "swiss made" shouting ...
