At 40 mm it lands in the modern sweet spot, a 48 mm lug-to-lug suits most wrists.
Fairly priced for what it is.

The maker
Montera blends structured British craftsmanship with relaxed Southern European character, drawing on Mediterranean colour palettes and textures — sunlit stone, deep coastal blues, natural greens — translated into sculpted, textured dials. The design focus is proportion, legibility, and materials that age well, aiming for pieces that feel relevant today and years from now rather than trend-driven design
