How is the redesigned Montblanc website to be evaluated from a collector's perspective?

Montblanc Montblanc — general FAQ entry

The new website is regarded as a clear improvement over the old one: it loads faster, products are easier to find, descriptions more detailed, and thanks to better search-engine friendliness, deep links to individual products are possible. Criticised are a still inadequate internal search, the missing German language version and the absence of individual editions like the "75th Anniversary Meisterstück Edition" and particularly small editions (88 to 333 pieces) in the Limited Editions area. The auction prices stated under "Collector's Information" (Patron of Arts) are not fantasy figures but average prices from three documented hammer prices of renowned auction houses such as Christie's and Sotheby's, but partly several years old. Factually wrong is the dating of the 149 to 1924 in the History section.
