Inspired by Aviation: Introducing the Montblanc 1858 Collection
Montblanc recently launched a new collection called 1858, inspired by 1930s pilots’ watches from the brand’s archives. At launch, two models have been announced, the?1858 Chronograph Tachymeter Limited Edition, in gold, and the?1858 Small Second Limited Edition, in steel.The first model is the 1858 Small Second Limited Edition comes in a 44-mm-diameter by 10.95-mm-thick stainless steel case and features a?large-diameter (37.2 mm) hand-wound movement reminiscent of those in pocketwatches from the same time period.

Zenith El Primero Lightweight Limited Edition Skeletonized Watch
Zenith really seems to have mastered the ability to surprise with their new models while still respecting their proven formula for distinctive and lust-worthy sport chronographs. While it is a bit of a stretch to call any El Primero "garden variety", the new Zenith El Primero Lightweight LE is certainly not your Dad's El Primero (better?). This new high-tech model offers a number of cutting edge enhancements all made in the name of saving weight. With a movement crafted from silicon and titanium and a case in carbon and aluminum, this is essentially the El Primero Superleggera.This new El Primero (ref 10.2260.4052W/98.R573) has actually been upsized over the standard El Primero Striking 10th models, from 42 to 45mm. At 45 mm, the Lightweight is certainly a large watch but I doubt this will be much of a hurdle for most buyers as Zenith makes a series of other successful models at this size like the Chronomaster Bullitt, Chronomaster Grande Date, and the 45.5mm Stratos Flyback.The 13.2mm

What's everyone's opinion on this model? I haven't really paid any attention to it till today. I'm so close to liking it, but I just can't seem to. I like the 47mm 1940's case and all, but I just can't stand the date function and the spring bar lugs. If it had no date, and screw down lugs, I'd be all over it. I guess I just really want a 399. Actually, I'd love to see a 399 without the seconds hand!
