MB&F Horological Machine Nº11 Architect. Introducing a WORLD PREMIER!

#mbandf #wherethewatchesarethestars #architect ‪@Mbandf‬
Introducing the MB&F Horological Machine Nº11 Architect. The Horological Machines of MB&F have established a reputation for increasing the sophistication of shaped sapphire crystal components used in watchmaking, and Horological Machine Nº11 is no exception. There are six externally facing sapphire crystal components in the case of HM11, the largest of which consists of two separate sapphire crystal domes stacked concentrically to form the transparent atrium roof of HM11. Dome skylights feature prominently in 1970s residential architecture, a result of that period’s fascination with injection-moulded acrylics and adventurous design.

HM11 Architect is available:
in Grade 5 titanium with blue dial plate limited to 25 pieces;
in Grade 5 titanium with red gold dial plate limited to 25 pieces.
