MB&F Celebrates 20 Years with Stunning New Releases: LM Perpetual Longhorn and LM Sequential Flyback Longhorn

As we mark MB&F’s 20th anniversary, the Swiss luxury watchmaker is once again pushing the boundaries of horological innovation. This milestone occasion is being celebrated with two exquisite timepieces: the LM Perpetal Longhorn and the LM Sequential Flyback Longhorn. Both releases are a testament to Maximilian Büsser and Friends’ commitment to artistic excellence and intricate craftsmanship.

The Legacy Continues: UM Perpetual Longhorn

The LM Perpetual Longhorn is a staggering creation that reflects the essence of MB&F’s commitment to horological art. Its stainless steel case, comprising 69 meticulously assembled components, measures 44mm in diameter and 17.5mm in thickness. Water-resistant up to 30 meters, this masterpiece is designed to be both durable and majestic. The case features four rectangular corrector pushers on the sides, an easy-to-operate crown at 3 o’clock, and sapphire crystals on both the front and back. The polished and brushed finishes seamlessly blend together, creating a refined and luxurious look.

At the heart of the watch lies the exquisite LM Perpetual movement, developed by Stephen McDonnell for MB&F. The movement boasts an impressive 581 components and operates at 18,000 vibrations per hour. It features a mechanical processor system for its calendar functions and includes built-in safety mechanisms to ensure ease of use. The power reserve is ample, thanks to double manually wound mainspring barrels that deliver a remarkable 72 hours of uninterrupted timekeeping. The balance wheel is positioned under a V-shaped bridge and all hands are crafted from blued steel, adding to the watch’s visual sophistication.

The time and perpetual calendar indications mirror previous Legacy Machine Perpetual references. Hours and minutes are displayed on the black lacquered subdial at 12 o’clock, while the day, month, and date appear on circled rings – also black lacquered for this Longhorn edition – floating effortlessly above the rhodium-treated base plate. The impeccable finishing of the perpetual calendar mechanism showcases MB&F’s dedication to mechanical artistry.

Each LM Perpetual Longhorn comes paired with a calf leather strap secured by a stainless steel folding buckle. This limited edition release is priced at CHF 168,000 (excluding VAT), making each piece a true collector’s item. Only 20 examples will be available, ensuring an exclusive opportunity for those who appreciate the extraordinary craftsmanship of MB&F.

Complexity Meets Elegance: LM Sequential Flyback Longhorn

The LM Sequential Flyback Longhorn is another masterpiece unveiled by MB&F to commemorate its 20th anniversary. This timepiece is nearly identical to its predecessors, yet it stands out with its unique elongated lugs that distinguish it from the regular LM Sequential series. The case, composed of 88 intricately assembled components, measures 44mm in diameter and 18.2mm in thickness. Its stainless steel construction and elongated lugs give it a distinctive and elegant profile.

At the core of this watch lies a fully integrated dual chronograph flyback mechanism that operates at 21,600 vibrations per hour. Developed by the renowned horologist Stephen McDonnell for MB&F, this movement is a marvel of complexity and precision. The Twinverter switch allows for multiple timing modes, including independent timing, simultaneous timing, split-second timing, sequential timing, and cumulative timing like that used in chess.

The busy yet elegant dial features hours and minutes displayed at 6 o’clock. The left chronograph seconds are indicated at 9 o’clock with minutes shown at 11 o’clock; operated by the start/stop pusher at 10 o’clock and reset/flyback at 8 o’clock. The right chronograph seconds are displayed at 3 o’clock with minutes shown at 1 o’clock; operated by the start/stop pusher at 2 o’clock and reset/flyback found at 4 o’clock. The time subdials and subdial rings are black lacquered with all hands crafted from blued steel.

Each piece comes with rhodium-plated bases, blued hands, and black-colored subdials. The power reserve is secured via double mainspring barrels delivering a 72-hour reserve. The final price for each limited edition piece is CHF 168,000 (excluding VAT), making it a rare opportunity for enthusiasts to own such an intricately designed complication watch. MB&F will produce only 20 pieces of this masterpiece.

For those ready to celebrate MB&F’s 20th anniversary with a true marvel of mechanical artistry, the LM Perpetual Longhorn and LM Sequential Flyback Longhorn offer unparalleled complexities that blend tradition with innovation. These timepieces are not just watches; they are mini-masterpieces that continue MB&F’s legacy of excellence.
