Maximilian B\u00fcsser<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0is a genius of modern watchmaking, no question. Each creation he makes with the MB&F\u2019s signature is a blow to the conventions of a market that wants to remain faithful to itself but, at the same time, discover new aesthetics and mechanical inventions. Should we bet on the fact that, among these inventions, the\u00a0LM101<\/strong>\u00a0will leave its a mark in history?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE BALANCE WHEEL \u2013 THE LM101 STAR<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We wouldn’t be so sure of our bet if we didn’t know the history of this timepiece \u2013 that defined simply as a watch is an understatement. Better to consider it a talisman of haute horology, whose history goes back a long way.\u00a0Legacy Machine 101, or LM101, was unveiled in 2014 as one of the most compact machines ever created by MB&F<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"MB&F<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a040 mm diameter case<\/strong>\u00a0was and remains quite far from Maximilian B\u00fcsser\u2019s standards. In addition, it holds the first caliber entirely conceived in-house by the MB&F design team, a challenge within the challenge that the brand wanted to further emphasize by exposing the heart of the LM101. And when we talk about the heart of a watch, we talk about the balance wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If in the aesthetics and mechanics of traditional watchmaking the balance wheel is hidden behind the movement, in the LM101 it stands out from the shadow of the gear train and the dial to float above it and above the caliber, in a suspended atmosphere enclosed by the domed sapphire glass. A technical choice that those unfamiliar with B\u00fcsser may consider almost crazy, but which comes from\u00a0two very specific directions. On the one hand, the desire to be inspired by the manual caliber of the Legacy Machine No.1, recreating it almost from scratch; on the other, the determination to follow the teachings of history<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A HISTORY\u2019S LESSON<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Let me put a footnote, without being boring.\u00a0The mechanics of the LM101, as well as that of many MB&F watches, pay homage and owe much to that of historic watchmaking<\/strong>. It is no secret that Maximilian B\u00fcsser loves 18th- and 19th-century pocket watches, so much so that his Legacy Machines were born from a question that he often asks himself: \u201cWhat would have happened if I had been born in 1867 instead of 1967?<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps he would have crafted the balance wheels as he crafts them today. Once, in fact, they had rather big dimensions, often at the expense of precision. Also important is\u00a0the size of the LM101\u2019s balance wheel: it\u2019s 14 mm diameter and has four traditional regulating screws floating above the movement<\/strong>. It oscillates at a low frequency, at 18,000 vibrations\/hour, but it is anything but retro thanks to the technological research characterizing it. The same as for the hairspring \u2013 the brain of the watch, together with the balance wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"MB&F<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the 2021 editions of the LM101,\u00a0it is a Straumann double hairspring with traditional Breguet curve, which comes from the collaboration between Moser and Precision Engineering: it is a double spiral escapement<\/strong>. Its task is to counteract gravitational influences, which compromise the precision of the movement,\u00a0as well as being a system of interchangeability of the escapement module itself, which prevents the barrel from discharging uncontrollably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\"MB&F<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"MB&F<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

These features make it possible to ensure the caliber has a power reserve of 45 hours, more than enough for the refined vocation that the LM101 wants to have. As usual for MB&F, the quality of the finishing of the movement\u2019s parts is the same that the brand puts in the dial\u2019s finishing. With a detail that\u2019s not negligible:\u00a0the aesthetics and finishes of this caliber were handled by Kari Voutilainen<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"MB&F<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Maximilian B\u00fcsser’s friend and the MB&F team worked following\u00a0the nineteenth century style, working on internal bevel angles that highlight the hand craft, polished bevels, classic C\u00f4tes de Gen\u00e8ve finishes and handmade engravings. Voutilainen respected tradition by also creating the bridges with elegantly curved shapes, leaving a large space between the bridges themselves and between their perimeter and the case. A work that was signed on the bridges by the artist who worked on it and which is visible through the sapphire crystal caseback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE SHOW IS ON THE DIAL<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ok, the movement is great, but what about the dial, which is worth not only the price of the watch but also a front row seat in the high-end theater of watchmaking? It has truly out-of-the-ordinary aesthetics, dominated by the large suspended balance wheel that accentuates the tridimensionality of the watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The beauty stands in the fact that this presence is dominant but not bulky, because it does not minimize the impact of the hours and minutes dial or that of the power reserve, which catch the eye thanks to many tricks. Beyond their\u00a0blued gold hands<\/strong>, in fact, they accentuate the tridimensional effect of the entire dial thanks to their rounded shape and the\u00a0so-called\u00a0\u201claque tendue\u201d process, in which multiple layers of lacquer are applied and heated, to stretch them over the surface of the dials<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In addition,\u00a0the counters are fixed on the dial through a sophisticated screwless system which makes them seem almost lying on it<\/strong>. The\u00a0very domed glass and the sunray pattern engraved on the upper part of the plate\u00a0<\/strong>increase the impression of depth of the whole dial, so much so that its elements seem to float in a vacuum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On closer inspection, they float on a colorful sea instead. The 2021 versions of the Legacy Machine 101 are indeed characterized by the classicism of the shapes and the genius of the technical solutions, but also by a very modern touch of color. The version with the\u00a0white gold case has a fascinating purple dial (\u20ac.67.000)<\/strong>, which in\u00a0the steel version becomes a beautiful blue (\u20ac.56.000)<\/strong>; the reference with a\u00a0red gold case has a dark royal blue dial (\u20ac.<\/strong> 67.000)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"MB&F<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For these versions of the LM101, Maximilian B\u00fcsser chose colors that were more contemporary than those of the first editions in platinum, palladium, red gold and white gold or the “Frosted” versions, which were also beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MB&F\u2019S CONSISTENCY<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Finally, the straps, which we sometimes forget when talking about a watch, even though they are often a basic part in the aesthetic balance of the timepiece \u2013 especially if it is a haute horlogerie creation. Well, in the LM101 they are in black, blue, brown alligator, depending on the reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"MB&F<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In short, what more can we say about the LM101? That it is maybe one of the watches that best embodies MB&F\u2019s mission and vocation. Born as the first conceptual watchmaking laboratory in the world, after 16 years the brand continues to follow the vision of its founder and creative director Maximilian B\u00fcsser to create kinetic art in 3D by deconstructing traditional watchmaking. Timepieces like the LM101 only confirm the consistency of this project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
