Catalogue Essay
Making waves in the independent scene, MB&F has created some of the most exciting, technically sound and futuristic object of horological art since its establishment in 2005 by founder, Maximilian Busser. With an aim to collaborate with other craftsman in the industry, Maximilian Busser and Friends introduced the Horological Machine 3 in 2009 marking the firm’s first truly iconic creation.

A universe of its own, the HM3 draws one’s gaze to this iconic series with two iteration: Starcruiser (cones in line with arm) and Sidewinder (cones perpendicular to arm). Available in either 18K white gold or 18K pink gold with titanium, the three-dimensional horological engine was designed by Jean-Marc Wiederrecht. In 2013, MB&F launched the HM3 Megawind with larger rotor and a more legible rotating-disc time display.

With a spaceship-like appeal, the HM3 features the model’s signature hour and minute cones transmitted via ceramic ball bearings to laser-cut hands allows the wearer to tell the time from the side or on the top. A movement that is literally turned upside down to allow an uninterrupted panorama of the solid gold winding rotor’s graceful arcs spins with the high-speed oscillations of the balance wheel.

Offered in “like new” overall condition and complete with its full set of accessories, the present MB&F HM3 is a fantastic opportunity for collectors of independents to acquire an attractive, iconic and rare creation from the “M.A.D. House”.

Please note that MB&F generously offers a complementary servicing of the watch with one-year warranty to the winning bidder within a period of 6 months after the sale.
