Horological Machine No.1
not simply pushing the limits but creating a
totally new dimension!
Hor-o-log-i-cal Ma-chine
1. 1. n. a device consisting of fixed and moving parts which
modifies energy and transmits it to a more useful form, i.e.,
timekeeping.
MB&F presents Horological Machine No. 1
An all new, totally original three-dimensional timepiece,
featuring: hour and minutes on separate dials, raised central
one-minute tourbillon, 7-day power reserve, four mainspring
barrels, both automatic and manual winding .
Horological Machine No. 1 (HM 1) is an extremely sophisticated
timepiece on many levels: visually, technically and emotionally.
As much, if not more, art and sculpture as micro-engineering. By
designing and constructing a three-dimensional machine, MB&F
have broken free of the constraints imposed by traditional
horology.
HM 1 features a radical new design and construction plus a
totally original movement with 376 parts and 81 functional
jewels - yet only 30 per year are to be crafted over the next
three years.
