Only a complete watch snob could look down their nose,at a brand that try to make watches for every type of watch buyer.
And as any watchmaker could tell you,there is nothing wrong with calibers from Sellita.MB are offering the watch in my link for a very reasonable price in my opinion.

Prøv lige at bruge to minutter på at læse min kommentar ordentligt, Willy.  Jeg har udtrykt forståelse for det forhold, at man er nødt til at spare på nogle punkter for at levere på andre. Heures du Monde er et fint, men dyrt alternativ til dem som dyrker finish på højt niveau. Hvis man ikke tillægger finish betydning eller større betydning, er Orbis Terrarum et godt og prisvenligt alternativ.

I can assure you that i read your comments.MB are new in this game,and to write them off at this stage would be foolish.At this time i consider them not to be near the level of other  high end brands.But under the present leadership only a fool would write them off,of ever achieving this.But we must also bear in mind that other brands who today are top high end brands,started out by using calibers from other brands.MB have come a long way in a short time.They have yet to reach the level of say VC-Patek-AP-Lange etc etc.I find better value in their lower price models,and i can agree that their top models are a bit overpriced.One thing you should think about,is this.MB are not completly dependant on their watch sales,and they have the economic muscle to take the long haul into the high end market.And that is why they headhunted their present director,and i am sure you know who that is
