Independent Swiss watch brand MB&F is all about three-dimensional watchmaking that showcases the glory of the mechanical craft. One of the most coveted independent brands among collectors, MB&F regularly pushes the creative envelope with sculptured cases that resemble animals or spaceships, and with movement architecture that should be in a museum. Even in its most classic of watches, the Legacy Machine, the brand still finds ways to surprise customers. The newest LMX watch (which celebrates 10 years this year), is the brand's first-ever dual time zone piece. Not only does it feature two nearly vertical dials in perfect symmetry, but also the hours and minutes of each subsidiary dial can be set independently of the other - a feature not usually found on dual time watches. The battle-axe shaped escapement bridge is indicative of the brand, but the large 13.4mm balance wheel adds to the allure of the watch. The seven days of power reserve are indicated in an unusual manner on an arched scale, and the wearer can choose to use a seven-day indicator or a weekday mode. The list of innovations inside this 367-part movement goes on, but su!ce it to say that this titanium timepiece captures eyes from across a crowded room.

The one rule that Maximilian Büsser & Friends follow is to rebel. Rooted in the laboratory-based artistic concept of collaboration, the brand gathers watchmaking professionals to cultivate timepieces that are rare and radical. Cooperation is the key element to achieving the best clockwor. The brand's 'Friends' include varying talents of product designers, photographers, manufacturers and more.While tradition underpins the brand's values, it is reinterpreted to suit the contemporary consumer, materializing time into three-dimensional kinetic sculptures that speak of and establish legacy.From MB&F's collaboration with Bulgari that birthed a bedazzling, diamond-imbedded dome timepiece, to the baffling bulldog structure of its Horological Machine No'10, the multi-dimensionality of timepieces created by Maximilian Büsser & Friends are astonishingly animate, telling not only the story of time, but also of geometry, history and art.
