Catalogue Essay
Founded by Maximilian Büsser, a maverick figure in the watchmaking industry, MB&F embraces a collaborative approach, bringing together some of the most talented independent watchmakers and artisans to create extraordinary timepieces that defy conventional norms. Established in 2005, MB&F has consistently pushed the boundaries of traditional watch design, crafting timepieces that transcend the notion of mere instruments and evolve into kinetic sculptures and wearable works of art. Each MB&F creation is an avant-garde masterpiece, reflecting Büsser's passion for innovation, storytelling, and a deep appreciation for the unconventional.
One certainly unconventional watch within the MB&F line is the HM5, short for Horological Machine No. 5. Inspired by the inaugural supercars from the 1970s, including models like the Lamborghini Miura, Lotus Esprit, and Lancia Stratos, all of which commonly featured louvres on their rear windows, the HM5 infuses a sense of dynamism into its original design.
With a case that is made in red gold, titanium, and zirconium, the HM5 combines classical hues with futuristic craft. Set in the centre of the machine is a three-dimensional horological engine developed by Jean-François Mojon and Vincent Boucard of Chronode, shining light on the collaborative spirit of MB&F. The present example is offered in excellent condition and is complete with its full set of accessories.
