MB&F Certified Pre-Owned

HMX BLACK BADGER BLUE

For MB&F's Performance Art collection, designer James Thompson - aka "Black Badger" - reinterpreted two MB&F Machines: HMX, first launched in 2015 for MB&F’s 10th anniversary, and Starfleet Machine, MB&F’s first table clock created with L’Epée 1839.

For the HMX Black Badger, Thompson redesigned the "rocker cover" of the HMX engine, visible under the supercar-like sapphire crystal cover, milled from his signature solid blocks of brightly coloured, high-efficiency lume.

This HMX Black Badger Blue in stainless steel and titanium, with lume in 'Phantom Blue', was limited to only 18 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 BADGER BLUE

 

While the "Phantom Blue" colour is eye-catching by day, it's when the sun goes down that it really comes out to party. The long-lasting glow emitted by the high-efficiency lume irradiates the HMX Engine compartment in an ethereal bath of light.
HMX displays bi-directional jumping hours and trailing minutes. Light streaming through the transparent engine cover both illuminates the top of HMX's Engine by day, and by night the brightly glowing lume provides its own colourful backlight to the time display.

HMX BLACK BADGER BLUE

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.
