Maximillian Büsser, the mastermind behind the contemporary brand MB&F, famous for their extraordinary and other-worldly haute horology masterpieces since 2007 has quickly climbed the ladder in the past few years as a top independent watchmaker and collector-favored brand. The Legacy Machine, a cornerstone model of the manufacturer is one of the most important and desirable models as it melds traditional watchmaking with contemporary technology and innovation. Inspired by the works from the godfathers of mechanical watchmaking: Abraham-Louise Breguet, Ferdinand Berthoud, and Antide Janvier, these inventive geniuses were united by their strive for experimentation with dual regulators, and MB&F’s Legacy Machine continues their works two and a half centuries later.
Launched in 2011, the Legacy Machine 1 or 'LM1' broke horological grounds with its incredible futurism aesthetic that still incorporated traditional watchmaking design. The dual time watch features an alluring, oversized suspended balance which playfully dances and brings vibrancy to the timepiece. To accommodate this incredible structure, the watch has a highly domed sapphire crystal which doubles to allow for a pleasurable view from the sides. Furthermore, a power reserve indicator has been incorporated in the symmetrical design. However, Maximillian Büsser has ingeniously created it in a three-dimensional vertical manner that is unlike any other timepiece. The LM1 pays homage to the past with its traditional roman numeral white lacquer dual time disks and its wonderful movement created and finished by none other than the legendary watchmakers Jean-François Mojon at Chronode and Kari Voutilainen. It is just as beautiful as the front featuring 19th century style hand-finishing decoration including Côtes de Genève, anglage, and black-mirror polishing.
