Maximillian Büsser, the mastermind behind the contemporary brand MB&F, famous for their extraordinary and other-worldly haute horology masterpieces since 2005 has quickly climbed the ladder in the past few years as a top independent watchmaker and collector-favored brand. As a child, Büsser was fascinated by all things automobiles and dreamt of one day becoming a designer of cars. While his life took him along another path and led him to watchmaking at the highest degree, we get a glimpse into his incredible passion for supercars with the limited edition HMX Blue that was greatly influenced by the distinctive 'Superleggera' style of Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Touring.
Launched in 2015 to celebrate ten monumental years of MB&F, the HMX Blue was a highly exclusive timepiece and limited to only 20 pieces. Instantaneously distinctive, alluring, and intriguing, it is easy to see its automotive inspiration since the area for the dial in a standard watch is a car engine-like movement in the HMX Blue. Incredibly, the bi-directional jumping hours and wandering minutes time is laterally displayed through the bottom of the watch thanks to two the triangular prisms.
