A celebration of enduring friendship is presented in the MB&F Legacy Machine LMX Paris Edition. This exceptional timepiece is crafted in 18k white gold and features a stunning sunray purple dial plate. Production is strictly limited to just 15 pieces worldwide, available exclusively at the MB&F LAB on Rue Saint-Honor\u00e9 in Paris.<\/p>\n
The watch pays tribute to the decade-long relationship between MB&F and Laurent Picciotto, founder of the legendary Chronopassion boutique. The vibrant purple dial creates a dramatic backdrop for the watch’s extraordinary mechanical architecture, prompting Picciotto to nickname it the “LMX Deep Purple” in homage to the iconic rock band.<\/p>\n
At the heart of this timepiece, a massive 13.4mm flying balance wheel is suspended above the movement, oscillating at 18,000 vibrations per hour. Two white lacquer dials are positioned at angles, each displaying an independent time zone that can be set via separate crowns. The crown at 2 o’clock, engraved with MB&F’s battle-axe motif, sets the right dial and winds the movement. The crown at 10 o’clock, adorned with a globe, adjusts the left dial.<\/p>\n
A revolutionary hemispherical power reserve indicator is positioned prominently on the dial. This three-dimensional display showcases the impressive seven-day (168-hour) power reserve and can be adjusted to show either a numeric scale or days of the week, according to the wearer’s preference.<\/p>\n
The movement comprises 367 components and 41 jewels, with three mainspring barrels providing the extended power reserve. Through the sapphire crystal case back, the symmetrical construction of the movement is revealed, with three barrels placed evenly around the center and enhanced by sunray-pattern C\u00f4tes de Gen\u00e8ve finishing.<\/p>\n
The watch is secured by a grey hand-stitched alligator strap with purple lining, fastened by a white gold folding buckle. This Paris Edition, priced at EUR 122,000 (excluding taxes), represents the crossroads where the first and second decades of the Legacy Machine collection meet.<\/p>\n
