Tech Talk: Montblanc’s TimeWriter II Chronographe Bi-Fr��quence 1000
If three watches constitute a trend, then measuring milliseconds, or 1/1,000s of a second, is a trend. Two watch brands, each with high-speed horological histories, have launched mechanical chronographs claimed to be capable of accurately measuring 1/1,000s of a second. Last year, TAG Heuer debuted its Mikrotimer Flying 1000 Concept Chronograph, followed this year by the even faster Mikrogirder. At SIHH this year, Montblanc launched its own millisecond-measuring marvel, the TimeWriter II Chronograph Bi-Fr��quence 1000, which employs a unique approach to splitting seconds.In a sense, development of Montblanc's high-speed chronograph began in 1916. That's when Minerva launched its first 1/100s-of-a-second stopwatch. Acquired by Richemont in 2006, Minerva was a true manufacture, known for chronographs and pilots' watches. In 2007, Richemont decided that Minerva would produce movements for Montblanc, and the following year, Montblanc launched the Fondation Minerva to create the TimeWriter

How easy is it to replace a bezel?
I damaged my bezel on my PO and replaced with one that I did not know was not OEM so now my PO looks fake so I ordered a OEM one. I would like not to send my watch back in to be repaired if I could do it myself.

Would you trade 5167A for an RO 15300BA
I wonder if you think that it is reasonable to trade an 5167A (2006) for an RO 15300BA (yellow gold, 2012, serviced 2015) with no money exchange.

Thoughts....
Thinking of adding this to my collection. What are your thoughts?

Thinking of a Skydweller
TRF,I have blue omega seamaster currently and am about to get my first Rolex. I have decided on the Skydweller because I really like the looks and complication of the watch. I am thinking that I like the Black Skydweller and my question is should I go for the the SS or TT model. The watch would be for daily wear with business clothes. My AD doesn't have a SD in stock (no surprise), so I will be getting on the list. What are your thoughts on the Black SS bs TT?Regards,NB
