Montblanc

Montblanc Heritage Chronométrie Dual Time appeals to me because

 

...it seems easy to use and clearly displayed on the dial.

Not just once have I called SWMBO (She who must be obeyed) accidentally when she was asleep during my international travels.

Believe me, you should only do that once to learn never to do it again. Alas, it happened again and again.


Actually, once during my travels, I called a Montblanc senior executive in Germany, having "carefully" calculated the time difference. Unfortunately, I forgot that I was in Las Vegas and not Singapore (where I usually call from).  He was not at home so you would think that I got away with it.   Alas, I woke HIS wife up instead!!!   Sorry, Alex.....  smile

It was during the International Gathering of The Tribes 2 back in 2011 before this watch was invented; that's my excuse.


Regards,

MTF

That is so funny MTF! :p Agree on calculating time zones Sometimes I calculate it the wrong way around (eg 8 hours ahead instead of behind etc) I think for some of us we need the Orbis Terrarum instead Cheers Robin

The dials of both of these watches look exceptional.

The dual time is very nicely laid out. A very good example of that complication. How big is it, Robin?

41mm case diameter

I wished it were smaller to be honest. 41mm is ok for most wrist size but a tad big for me Cheers Robin

This is a good article Robin...

Glad you like this Dual Time too As Arie suggested, our smartphones also have a worldtime feature! But it\'s the beauty on our wrists that we like so I still appreciate a dual time or worldtime watch Speaking of which my Orbis Terrarum arrived in Singapor... 

I like the "atmosphere" of the Dual Time

I don't know where my impression comes from but the blue and warm dial colors match pretty well, as does the way the 2 subdials are decorated. The colors and design layout are really nice and make me think a little about the 60's Pan Am commercials spirit... 

Thank you Mark
