Moser, Black Badger, and more. Their timepieces — and we specify ‘timepieces,’ as MB\u0026amp;F makes much more than just wristwatches — are some of the most innovative, daring, and properly unique products in modern horology, known for their use of alternative time-telling systems, unique materials, and interesting complications.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eTake for the Horological Machine N°9 Flow, or HM9 for short. The HM9 debuted in 2018 with a jaw-dropping case silhouette was reminiscent of something out of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe Jetsons.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e Its hard to believe that this watch even \u003cem\u003eexists -\u003c\/em\u003e but it does - and offers one of the brand’s most creative displays of mechanical ingenuity that resonates through horological - as well as retrofuturistic design - circles today. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis particular HM9 features a 47mm x 57mm rose gold case with curved sapphire apertures displaying the inner workings of its HM9 engine. This stunning movement took three years to develop and represents the steady innovation spanning across the 13 in-house movements from MB\u0026amp;F that preceded it. In its own distinctly expressive and mesmerizing way, the HM9 features a visible twin oscillator and balance system with a central differential visible to the wearer.  Comprised of 301 individual components, the manual-winding HM9 engine is greater than the sum of its parts any way you look at it!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe case is another exercise in innovation. It mandated an entirely new manufacturing process to achieve the satin finish across its sloping case curves and polished accents along its sharper edges. The topside of the case features a large signed ‘turbine’ crown and at it's base, and its gloss black luminous dial is oriented in a 'driver's' position, with a relatively low-key design featuring printed Arabic indices and a sword handset.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFitted to its signed brown leather strap with tonal stitching and a signed 18k rose gold and titanium spring deployant clasp, this high-horology masterpiece is in outstanding condition throughout, showing only the faintest signs of wear from careful handling. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAccompanied by its complete set including its boxes, papers and a signed leather folio, this excitingly innovative design offers a unique experience in the high end independent space.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eEccentric and absolutely cool, it perfectly sums up what we love about the mad scientists at MB\u0026amp;F!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MB\u0026F","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40507958788183,"sku":"40991797","price":120000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/files\/AS09375_40991797_MB_F_HOROLOGICALMACHINESNO9_HM9-7.jpg?v=1707861594","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/mbandf-horological-machine-n-9-flow-as09375","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
