MB&F’s stunning latest version of the LM FlyingT Malachite, features a dial plate and sub-dial in the vibrant green gemstone, in an 18k white gold case set with diamonds.
The natural lines in Malachite, vary randomly from light to dark green. As always with gemstones, it has associated virtues: among them, good health including protection from lightning! During the Middle Ages, it was apparently customary to wear it engraved with a figure of the Sun – just like the Sun-shaped winding rotor of the FlyingT!
Powering this new edition, the towering vertical structure of the FlyingT automatic movement, offering 100 hours of power reserve and topped by a 60-second flying tourbillon. The time is displayed on a tilted subdial placed at 7 o’clock visible only to the wearer of the watch, underlining the personal nature of the LM FlyingT.
“I wanted LM FlyingT to possess the epitome of femininity as reflected by the women in my life, particularly my mother. It had to combine supreme elegance with tremendous vitality. The column-like structure of the flying tourbillon was very important to me as I felt very strongly that women form the pillar of humanity. There is another layer of meaning coming in from the sun-shaped rotor, which incorporates the element of life-giving, a source of sustenance which we gravitate towards and around.”
Maximilian Büsser, Founder, MB&F
