[Novelty] The new MB&F Legacy Machine Perpetual
By: Mark in Paris : November 3rd, 2015-04:03
Friends, The launch of a new Horological Machine or Legacy Machine from MB&F is always something exciting as it comes out of the traditional path. Today, Max Büsser and his friends are unveiling the 4th Legacy Machine after the LM1, the LM2 and the "e...
This watchmaker is a genius
By: dsgalaxy1 : November 3rd, 2015-04:48
We could never thank enough Max Busser for what he gave and hopefully he's still giving to the watch industry.
Every watcmaker brings a brick to the wall
By: Mark in Paris : November 3rd, 2015-14:03
but some add a massive one and change the face of watchmaking quite significantly. Independents have quite many of them Cheers, Mark
It is indeed a question we always have in mind
By: Mark in Paris : November 3rd, 2015-14:05
when an independent watchmaker, or at least one we are waiting a lot from, launches something new: will it be worth of the previous models? I second your compliments Andrew. Cheers, Mark
You know what I REALLY like...
By: andrewluff : November 3rd, 2015-16:13
other than the design Mark? Is there is no story to go with it based on some dream or a false thank you like the HMX... its just real watchmaking, great design and a wonderfully balanced piece. To me this is by FAR the best LM version to date, I actually ...
I follow your ranking... on a technical standpoint
By: Mark in Paris : November 4th, 2015-08:06
and the will to master differently the QP complication. However, I find the LM1 an equal number 1 for the aesthetical symetry, pure look... As for the limited editions, there may be some in the future but I know an opposite example (from Urwerk for instan...
I agree with you
By: Ondrej Berkus : November 4th, 2015-00:35
and i like and respect the HM line for its horological and design daring approach. The LM line is love at first sight for me though, head over heels crazy feelings I just have to keep coming back to this post to look at the QP some more. Ondrej
Watch the video and enjoy passion and innovation
By: kolosstt : November 3rd, 2015-10:35
Really like this one. Pure innovation and a design masterpiece keeping a strong sign to the brand as it continues to carry the open balance wheel. A mechanical processor, how cools sounds that... Carried away by dreams, thanks Mark and cheers kolosstt
My pleasure Kolosstt
By: Mark in Paris : November 3rd, 2015-14:11
It is very interesting to discover and follow the brand's philosophy when creating a new model. I'm glad also they kept the balance wheel display they started with the LM1. Cheers, Mark
I'm fortunate...
By: Tim Jackson : November 4th, 2015-18:47
To know Stephen McGonigle well personally, he and Stephen McDonnell shared workspace in Neuchatel until McD's recent move back to his native Northern Ireland. I had the fortune to meet him on a visit back in July 2009. Little did I know then of his full g...
Many genius watchmaker remain in the dark
By: Mark in Paris : November 6th, 2015-10:43
I think that this one is going to be put under a glowing light for a while with that masterpiece. Thanks for the sharing your personal experience Tim Cheers, Mark
Ten very well spent years
By: heartbreaker : November 3rd, 2015-13:16
Congratulations to Mr. Maximilian Büsser and his friends for these ten very well spent years! MB&F, as a concept brand - or, better, as a creative laboratory - has released truly innovative and surprising timepieces. This sort of enlarged family has conce...
Evident fun
By: Mark in Paris : November 4th, 2015-14:37
This is indeed what we feel from their creations: the fact that the heart dictates it and not marketing studies. As between Pt or RG, I hope I'll be able to see it soon and find out! Cheers, Mark
Thanks for posting this, Mark.
By: TheMadDruid : November 3rd, 2015-13:31
It is quite a beautiful watch, and in line with the previous offerings from MB&F. The elimination of the typical large lever, and use of a stacked gear system has been used before by Ulysses Nardin and Cartier. The connection is Ludwig Oechslin-Carol ...
I read this too
By: Mark in Paris : November 4th, 2015-14:41
I don't know if there is a connection but it seems to be a very smart movement. However, as their is a patent pending concerning their "mechanical processor", I imagine it is quite different from the existing previous ones (and maybe completely different,...

By: stephenmcd : November 6th, 2015-10:03
Hello Mark Thanks for all of the kind words and appreciation of the watch. From a technical point of view, I just thought it might be useful to clarify that while it is true that my "mechanical processor" concept is indeed an assembly based on stacked gea...
Dear Mark
By: stephenmcd : November 7th, 2015-03:33
Again, thanks for your kind words. I poured my heart and soul into the conception, design, development and prototyping of this watch over a period of just under 2.5 years. This is a ridiculously short time to develop something so complex (other big brands...
All about watchmaking
By: Mark in Paris : November 7th, 2015-09:57
This is, especially with independent watchmakers as they can (and want to) try other ways to do things, what is the most appealing. We indeed feel it is a matter of talent, curiosity and hard work and this little something we can't define (and that you ca...
Dear Stephen, we will meet in London within a few days.
By: foversta : November 6th, 2015-15:12
I had a long chat with Charris during our dinner in Paris so I can't wait to meet at QP. I will come back in a few weks with a full review of the watch but as usual with any machine, I take my time. Best regards. Fx
Dear Foversta
By: stephenmcd : November 7th, 2015-03:37
Yes, it's true that I'll be at Salon QP in London next week, so I look forward to meeting you there. In the meantime, if you need any more information about the piece, or technical explanations, I would be more than happy to help. Should you require it, m...
