Montblanc Collection Villeret 1858 Vintage ChronographeA couple of weeks ago the young Swiss watch maker brand has introduced its new vintage Montblanc Collection Villeret 1858 Vintage Chronographe monopusher chronograph watch.Like a number of recently introduced vintage chronograph watches, the new Montblanc Vintage Chronographe is powered by a vintage-styled but nevertheless pretty modern movement. In this particular case it is the Minerva Kaliber 16-29 manual-wind chronograph movement that we have already seen on the highly exclusive Montblanc Collection Villeret 1858 Grand Chronographe Authentique limited edition monopusher unveiled in 2008.Like the preceding model, the Vintage Chronographe sports only one 30-minute totalizer at 3 o’clock, which is visually balanced with a small second hand located at 9 o’clock.Its dial with a spiral tachymetric scale, as well as the characteristically shaped winding crown combined with a single chronograph pushpiece also remind us about the years when chronographs were at the peak of their success, serving both as pieces of luxury and as real time measuring devices.What is interesting about this watch is that the tachymetric scale was removed from its traditional place at the periphery of the dial, transferred to the central position and replaced by the telemeter scale. The latter is used to measure not the speed of but distance to the particular object or an event. For example, when trying to understand how far is a thunderstorm from your house, you can push the button after seeing a flash and then push it again when you hear the sound of the thunder. The result will be accurate to a point of 0.1 km.Of course, all these features make the dial look a trifle busy and the fact that the spiral tachymetric scale intersects the areas reserved for the chronograph and small second subdials doesn’t help much in reducing the clutter.Well, this Montblanc Collection Villeret 1858 Vintage Chronographe is still one of the best new models that the Swiss brand can offer for this year.Unfortunately, the total production run of the model will be limited at 118 pieces, evenly split between the red gold and white gold versions.

I just recently reported that Tom Cruise has been known to enjoy his Bremont ALT1-C watch and brandish it about town. Funny enough, Taylor Lautner from the Twilight movies has just been seen wearing the exact same watch Bremont ALT1-C watch, with the same anthracite colored dial. Here Taylor is at the premiere of the new Twilight movie with his Bremont. I quite wonder how word spreads about watches like this within the celeb community. I can't image Tom Cruise likes to hang out with Mr. Lautner - but they aren't the only ones in Hollywood with Bremont - that seems to one of the hot new timepiece brands for the movie star elite these days.
