Laurent's opinion
The Legacy Machine FlyingT was born from a feminine inspiration, but it speaks to anyone drawn to exceptional watchmaking. In this platinum version with its blue guilloché dial, it reaches a rare purity: no gender, no era—just the emotion of a movement suspended in space.

Description

MB&F Legacy Machine FlyingT – Platine Edition -

A unisex timepiece born from a feminine vision

The MB&F Legacy Machine FlyingT is a truly exceptional creation, initially conceived as a tribute to the influential women in Maximilian Büsser’s life. Today, its sculptural elegance and technical boldness redefine high-end watchmaking through a unisex lens: artistic, poetic, and mechanically sophisticated.

At its core, a vertically constructed flying tourbillon rises from the dial, crowned by a 0.035-carat diamond. The white lacquer dial, tilted at a 50° angle, displays the hours and minutes exclusively to the wearer, reinforcing the intimate relationship with the timepiece. A sun-shaped 3D rotor ensures a generous 100-hour power reserve.

This platinum 950 edition features a radiant sky-blue guilloché dial, handcrafted at Kari Voutilainen’s dial atelier. The scalloped pattern evokes shimmering fish scales, ocean waves, or medieval armor—capturing the kinetic beauty of the tourbillon.

Limited to just 18 pieces, the Legacy Machine FlyingT Platinum is a rare work of mechanical art, where precision and poetry unite in a timepiece designed for all.
