Catalogue Essay
The present watch is numbered 10 of a limited edition of 12 pieces only created for the Singapore market.

Founded in 2005, Maximilian Büsser and Friends (MB&F) represents a collaborative effort between artisans, artists and professionals who collectively design rare and unique horological masterpieces.

The present watch, Horological Machine No3 (“Black Frog”) in Black PVD covered Titanium, achieves MB&F’s goal by imbuing high end watchmaking with playfulness. While the rotating domes may suggest frog eyes, technical finesse is required to create the semi-spherical sapphire crystal hour and minute domes.
