    • @thetinkeringseal

      I apologise for the late reply. I still own the watch. It's very comfortable despite the typical Longines long logs, so it should wear very well on your 17cm wrist. The bracelet feels... soft(?) in a way. Like wearing a leather strap but it's steel.

    Is the designation 117 correct for a (shorter) Montblanc rollerball version to the 116 ballpoint. Under that numerical designation (117) I'm finding nothing in my research except the mechanical pencil. I would prefer a rollerball version (117) to the 116--but is there one? Thanks for the help in advance.

    • @thetinkeringseal
      @thetinkeringseal Рік тому

      No, 117 is the Mozart pencil, as per the video. 118 is the rollerball. However, the numbers aren't always used within the Mozart line, generally they're just called "Mozart rollerball" and so on.

I personally don't know anything about watches, and I have spent the better part of today wondering if I even like it tbh. Sure it looks good, but I don't know if I like the blue all that much. I'm sure my friend would buy it back if I told him I didn't want it, but I am giving it a try. Also here on the internet to see what others think of it. I love that it's pretty big.

    I am fortunate to own all of the fountain pen series mentioned here; one point (& it may be moot), but why is the 147 'Traveller' a Meisterstuck ? It is not a designated piston-filler. Trusting you may be able to answer my enquiry. Thank you for your comprehensive overview, Andrew

    • @thetinkeringseal
      @thetinkeringseal Рік тому

      "Meisterstück" isn't exclusively for the fountain pens. It's the name of the design line, containing pencils, ballpoints, rollerballs, cartridge fountain pens and piston fillers. Just like the Starwalker have its own design, but also with different writing types within that line.

    I have this watch and put it on a mesh bracelet. Looks amazing. My bezel aligns perfectly as does the chapter ring. Mine also winds beautifully and does not interact with the crown guard. I think you need to make sure you have unscrewed the crown properly, as per your video. Overall, a lovely watch and nice review.

    • @thetinkeringseal
      @thetinkeringseal Рік тому

      The crown is completely released. It's free without resistance when turning the opposite direction, but catches the threads when turned the right way even with a minimum of pressure.

    Thank you so much for the video! I inherited a mont blanc a while back and was told that it was a converted pen to pencil. I was fairly sure it was authentic but I nonetheless scoured the internet for these so called "conversions". Your video has helped set my mind at ease. I believe mine was made sometime during the cold war era since "W-Germany" is inscribed on part of the clip. From what I understand the "W-Germany" was to clarify that it was made in West Germany as opposed to East Germany which was a communist territory. Correct me if I'm wrong... I'd love to know more about it and its history!
