I think Steve is still down in Mexico, so I'll take the liberty of introducing MB&F's latest machine, the LM1. I'm sure he'll have more to add when he gets a chance.



As you can see, this is their first round watch, but that doesn't mean you won't find plenty of MB&F DNA within. The "Friends" in this case, are Eric Giroud (returning for the design), Jean-François Mojon (engineering) and Kari Voutilainen (finishing). Each brought to life the magnificent vision of Max, who's inspiration was "what if i had been born in 1867 instead of 1967?"

Hard to argue with the results, the watch is breathtaking, least of all in pictures so be sure to check out the videos that Steve took as well.

See the full story with plenty more pictures over at HODINKEE.

 

Whoa - I like that!

 

top notch as always Steve.

 

I was going to post this earlier today but didn't get around to it. I saw it up on your site today ctzn. Gorgeous piece. I'm looking forward to SteveH chiming in about it soon too.

 

Really a very classy looking piece.

It's stunning! The vertical power reserve is really cool. Very well done watch.

I'd love to see some wrist shots at some point just to see how that domed crystal looks.
