Last year, Montblanc released the Spirit Orbis Terrarum World Time with in-house(ish) movement. This year they have extended that design with the 4810 Collection Orbis Terrarum. This year’s 4810 Orbis Terrarum is similar to the one released last year with the exception of the color scheme and case shape.
The new 4810 has the same caliber MB 29.20 automatic movement as the Spirit. The world-time dial features 24 different cities in 24 different time zones. The dial is composed of multiple layers of sapphire crystal that rotate accordingly. The main difference between the Spirit model and the 1480 is the color scheme.
While last year’s model indicated the nighttime hours by shading the countries in dark blue and the daylight hours countries in light blue. This year the countries during daylight hours are colored in shades of yellow, orange, and green. Additionally, the 43 mm stainless-steel case is a slight different shape with stepped lugs.
This is a very cool watch that received a lot of praise when the earlier version was released last year. It is one of the more aesthetically pleasing and complicated watches being produced by Montblanc in my opinion. More pictures and pricing to follow.
