To celebrate the UAE’s 50th anniversary, MB&F releases the 10-piece limited LM Split Escapement EVO UAE Golden Jubilee, with a commemorative engraving \u201cYear of the Fiftieth\u201d on the outer box.<\/p>\n
The name ‘Split Escapement’ comes from the creativity of Stephen McDonnell who innovated a balance wheel that would traverse the entire watch from top to bottom. Hence, the suspended balance wheel is visible on the front side of the watch while the anchor and escape wheel are located on the opposite side.<\/p>\n
The 44mm case is made of grade 5 titanium and due to the absence of a bezel, the glass directly merges with the case – as is typical of EVO MB&Fs. The contrasting colors of the dial in salmon and sub-dials in grey, as well as the Super-LumiNova applied on the numerals and hands, provides great legibility. The time is shown at 2 o’clock, the power reserve at 6, and the date at 10 o’clock. A push-button next to the date allows for an easy quick change.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, and because of the movement configuration which has been rotated by 30\u00b0, the crown is unusually located at 4:30. The movement itself is composed of 298 parts and can accumulate power for up to 72 hours.<\/p>\n
This ingenious timepiece comes with an integrated rubber strap to sit comfortably on your wrist.<\/p>\n
