This large size wrist watch is one of the brand’s TimeWalker GMT collection for gents. It comes with a sturdy, mirror-finished case with a stationary bezel that both are made of premium grade stainless steel. Its well-crafted case measures 42 mm in diameter and is 11 mm thick, in which, thanks to its narrow bezel, this Timewalker looks even larger than its already ample diameter of 42 millimeters. The case tapers sharply downwards so that only a relatively small portion of the back actually comes into contact with the wearer’s wrist, making it also fits well on a narrower wrist.
Both of its case’s sides are shielded with a scratch resistant sapphire crystal; the rear sapphire is held in place by six screws, while the ones atop the dial is enhanced with an anti-reflective coating on both sides. At the right hand side, its large crown is textured to makes it even easier to use, and it is decorated with the brand’s enamel logo. Furthermore, its gorgeous 20 mm wide Brown bracelet that is made of genuine leather bracelet comes equipped with a steel pin and buckle clasp.
Opted for read-ability, this Montblanc 106593 TimeWalker watch’s dial is quite a pleasure as well. It is bold in Brown, has a nice modern design, and comes with Rhodium plated hands, and applied sticks and Arabic numeral hour markers. The hour in the local time zone is indicated on the inner 12-hour scale, while the hour in the second time zone is shown on the 24-hour scale along the dial periphery. The date display at six can be easily noticed, while the additional GMT hand doesn’t interfere with the legibility of the dial either. And better yet, the hour and minute hands, as well as the markers over the hour markers feature SuperLuminova that make them remain visible in every light conditions.
Speaking a bit about the movement, Montblanc 4810/405 is a fine Swiss automatic movement that is personalized by the watchmaker based on the ETA 2893-2. It is accurate and reliable. This self-winding 21 jewels caliber beats at a 28,800 alterations per hour, and it provides approximately 42 hours of power reserve.
Overall, this TimeWalker GMT is a good timepiece that already offers everything you could possibly ask from an automatic mechanical watch with 2nd time zone; both form and functions. Furthermore, its construction that is watertight to 30 meters makes it an ideal one to be worn daily. For all of its quality offerings, this gent’s Montblanc Ref. 106593 steel on leather watch is reasonably priced with an original manufacturer suggested retail price of $3,755.00.
