Catalogue Essay
Within a few short years since launching their first model, the Horological Machine 1 (HM1), MB&F had firmly established themselves as a brand at the cutting edge of horological design. They broke the mold in terms of aesthetics, movement design, and the very concept of what a wristwatch could be. The Legacy Machines are pure retro-futurism in terms of aesthetics but they still push the ingenuity of their watchmakers’ to the limit.
This second member of the Legacy Machine family, the LM2 maintained the vaulted bridges, structural lugs and domed crystal of its predecessor, but now mounts two independent escapements above the dial. Linked by a differential visible at six o’clock that mechanically averages the two which, theoretically, should provide improved chronometry – not to mention a magnificent show.
The manual-wind caliber, created exclusively for this watch, was developed between Jean-Francois Mojon and the MB&F team with finishing duties being carried out by none other than Kari Voutilainen. Housed in an elegant 18 karat pink gold case that hammers home the steampunk aesthetics, we are pleased to present this example in superb condition with its original MB&F box (a work of art in itself!) and certificate.
Please note that MB&F generously offers a complimentary service of the watch to the successful bidder within a period of six months following this auction.
