MB&F Certified Pre-Owned

HMX BLACK

HMX – “X” as in the Roman numeral for ten – was conceived as a thank you to the collectors who have supported the brand over the first 10 years. Instead of developing an ultra-complicated, ultra-expensive anniversary piece – standard practice in the luxury watchmaking world – MB&F cut sales margins without sacrificing quality, offering a true Horological Machine at an unprecedented price. Paradoxically, creating such a Machine also made HMX one of the most difficult to develop as MB&F considered, tested and rejected a plethora of combinations of forms, finishes and details before being satisfied that everything was “just right”.

This HMX Black edition in stainless steel and titanium was limited to only 20 pieces.

As you would expect, our curated MB&F Certified Pre-Owned timepieces go through a full check-up: at our workshop in Geneva, our own watchmakers clean, polish, check water resistance, movement functions, time regulation… If necessary, we restore using our own original parts. And we ship the piece anywhere in the world, free of charge.

Description

HMX BLACK

Because of its utterly unconventional shape, the HMX case is a major challenge to manufacture: Every line, curve, metal, finish and colour has been refined over and over again. The case options were considered for strength, colour, finish and even weight: HMX didn’t just have to look good from every angle, it also had to feel “just right”, i.e. not too heavy but not too light either. Stainless steel and grade 5 titanium were finally selected as offering the ideal qualities for the HMX case.

The Creator

Maximilian Büsser and Friends

After decades confirming to the rules of corporate watchmaking, Max Büsser broke the chains and started a rebellion in 2005; a rebellion called MB&F - Maximilian Büsser & Friends.

MB&F is an artistic concept laboratory based around a simple idea: to assemble collectives of independant watchmaking professionals to develop radical watches - Horological or Legacy Machines. By nurturing teams of talented individuals, harnessing their passion and creativity and crediting each person's essential role, MB&F uses their synergy to become much greater than the sum of its parts. Respecting tradition, but never constrained by it, MB&F reinterprets traditional, high-quality watchmaking into three-dimensional kinetic sculptures.
