MB&F - Watches
New Wristwatches - Watches For Men Women ...
MB&F is a creative laboratory developing three-dimensional high-end timepieces with collaborations of horological artisans and artists. Founded by Maximilian Büsser, the brand is based in Geneva, Switzerland. MB&F presented its first watch, Horological Machine No.1 in 2006 and has followed that up by presenting a new Horological Machine each year.
Horological Machines are as much, if not more, art and sculpture as they are micro-engineering: they are machines which tell the time rather than machines to tell the time.
By designing and constructing three-dimensional machines rather than wristwatches, MB&F are able to break free of the constraints imposed by traditional horology and create kinetic art.

Maximilian Büsser After graduatinged with a masters degree in micro-technology engineering, Maximilian Büsser's first employer was Jaeger-LeCoultre where he spent seven years in their senior management team during a period of change and strong growth.
Büsser was appointed managing director of Harry Winston Rare Timepieces in 1998. During his seven years there he transformed the company into a well-respected haute horlogerie brand. Working with talented independent watchmakers on the revolutionary Opus series of timepieces planted the seed for developing that concept further still.
In 2005 Büsser resigned from Harry Winston to form MB&F, with the ethos of ackknowledging the contribution of the individuals who contributed to each project.
