As alluded to in my previous thread, this was sort of dropped in my lap. I was texting the boutique about the more modern 16.29 editions being a little big and thick for me, with only the old models of 43.5mm maybe working. Moreso a commentary on hoping a future model would come out in that size. I was informed that there was one of these 43.5mm collection villeret models available, that had come from villeret in the past 2 months. I have always found the 16.29 to be more attractive than the 13.21 (I mean slightly as both are beautiful) but with the more curvaceous levers, the overall size and depth. I was somewhat hesitant as I am not into large watches...but for me this movement is beautiful and fills the entire caseback, so it has a reason for the case size. Also having an enamel dial, and thickness of only 12.5mm helps with the overall appeal. Also, ๐ ๐
I present the montblanc collection villeret vintage chronograph, 43.5mm x 12.5mm, WG, black enamel dial. This is a run of 58, there was a purists pro version as well. Red strap definitely makes a statement.
Thanks for looking,
Kevin
