Received my Black / Time-only Oceanking four weeks ago. Everything about this is exquisite! Looks and feels absolutely perfect on my 6.75" wrist. I never want to take this thing off. The slide-lock adjustment on the bracelet is ingenious. I was hesitant to invest this much on a time piece but the fit, finish, function, precision, presentation along with the customer care from Monta has made this one of the best purchases I've ever made. The daily compliments I receive reinforce my owner experience. It's more than a watch to me. Thanks for your review Rob, Cheers!

I am happy to see a 60 click bezel! Brands brag about 120 click, but 60 click line up so much easier. That watch is a home run!

I picked up one of these 2nd hand from a seller on Watchuseek and it quickly became one of my favorite watches and now in the permanent collection. I was hesitant about the price for a micro but got it for a great price used. Great size! one of the most accurate I own (4 secs a week), Best chapter ring of any blue I have seen (metallic blue anodized / lacquer over brushed stainless?), Rhodium indices and hands are just beautiful, ratcheting adjustable clasp that is only about 16mm wide I think. The bezel is very satisfying as you demonstrated. Just a fantastic case design. The only thing I would change is I wish the dial matched that metallic specularity of the chapter ring/ crystal chamfer ring like the blue Mido Ocean Star Captain you reviewed (another favorite blue). One of the best of the premium micros. Some of these small companies are really giving the big boys (Omega, Rolex ...ect) some serious competition (Halios, Chris Ward, Helm, Obris Morgan, Steinhart, Damasko, Sinn, Aevig, Nodus...the list gets bigger everyday.)

Stunning looking watch! I know this Monta and some other premium Micro-branded watches are more money than a lot of guys can pay (for now). But these are the types of watches that most of us either gravitate to or want to gravitate to. Thanks Rob for showing us this watch again. Some of us need a reminder about how great of a job Monta is doing with their designs and quality. I'm just not seeing much of a quality difference between Monta and some of the bigger brands like (enter brand name here). Thanks again

Hi Rob--I enjoy your reviews. Two questions: a) My wrist is only 6.5". Would the clasp be too large for my wrist? b) I'm torn between this and the gilt Oceanking with ceramic bezel, at least in part because the ceramic will not scratch. Can you see any scratches on this steel bezel? Thanks!

Hey, great video and I agree this one is my fav too in their lineup. Sold out for now though, hopefully will come back soon. I have a question about the case back, how is the case back secured to the chassis of the watch? Could a regular watchmaker be able to open and service it? Thanks

Gotta say... if I'm going to spend this kind of coin, I'd be going with the Chris Ward C60 Elite 1000. This is a nice watch from Monta, no question, but I think the Chris Ward is a better value at the price point.

Just ordered this exact model combination after many months of deliberation on which model to get...unfortunately the recent price increase has made it a bitter sweet experience so far. However, has anyone got this on one of the rubber straps and if so which colour would you recommend as Everest have a few different options? Suggestions welcome, thanks all.

Given that you have mentioned Monta a lot over the past couple of years, it’s totally believable that you really appreciate the brand. That is a long clasp however. That was a curious decision. I have found that a 120 click bezel is a little more useful, but 60 clicks is not a bad design.

1:00 - The dial color shown on their website (MONTA Dark Blue) looks NOTHING like what you have. They show a color closer to teal (blue-green). It bothers me when product websites are this misleading.

I had this exact model. The finishing is done to a standard much higher than its price point suggests. I’d say the only weakness is the movement is not chronometer rated. Other than that, a great watch to have in the collection!

I mean, there are many big Swiss watch brands that don’t do finishing to the quality you would see in this Monta. And also, $2k isn’t really a lot of money when it comes to luxury watches..
