Maybe the finest watch from Montblanc Villeret. Here we have: - A manual winding chronograph with a Rattrapante which is not modular, but integrated. - A sublime Tourbillon with its hyper finished bridge which requires one week of work. - Enamel dial. - O

High complication haute horlogerie - NWA

Some quick pictures of my new timepiece featuring a regulator dial, GMT, Rattrapante and the patented exo-tourbillon. Pretty big and three dimensional caliber which is the deepest and nicest I have ever seen, even compared to an ALS Rattrapante. I know th

Nicest Chronographs? Share pics!

Datograph from Lange Duometre à Chronographe from Jaeger Lecoultre. 1858 Tachymeter from Montblanc. 5370 from Patek, And the King of the Kings, but I would prefer a Rattrante NOT associated to a tourbillon, this opus from Montblanc, the level of movement

Montblanc Exotourbillon Rattrapante. A close up of the two dials.

A Montblanc Villeret Minerva Rattrapante " only ", would you be in?

Ok, let's dream a bit. Somewhere in the 30's or early 40's, there was that: A big steel case, with a Valjoux Cal 55 inside, rattrapante Chronograph. Then we saw that: The Exotourbillon Rattrapante. With its wonderful Cal 16.61: Now, remove the tourbillon,
