Is montblanc’s horology legit? Might sound like a dumb question but I think of them as a stationary company first before a watch company

Montblanc Minerva watches are very high end and good value (think haute horology level chronographs for 30k - 40k). Minerva was an old manufacturer that Montblanc bought and uses to produce high end stuff.

Regular Montblanc watches are sometimes also nice, and obviously far less expensive. Depends on the model. Some people like them more than other people do.

Fwiw, Montblanc is owned by Richemont (who also own Lange, Vacheron, Cartier, JLC, Baume & Mercier, Van Cleef, and many other brands).

Yea, quite legit. Most lower end models use sellita these days but they also have (kind of) in-house movements. Not bad at all. I am not a fan for their aesthetics though.

Thanks. Some of their higher end models are 10k+. What do you mean by kind of in-house?

They make decent dress watches for the price (less than $3k), wouldn’t pay full retail though. You can find their stuff discounted on eBay and Joma shop all the time. I don’t mind their designs at all actually. And the leather straps are quality

That too was my first reaction when I learned they made watches but thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
