Part 3: Watches
Most of the models from MB&F were on show, if not on display then on one of the many wrists with an MB&F machine. The number of MB&F watches in the room was extraordinary, as is the case every year.
First, the HM3 Frogs. The black with green rotor is way cooler than the white gold and blue.
The HM2 Sapphire Vision
The original HM3
The HM2
And the one that started it all, the HM1
A remarkable thing about the appeal of MB&F is that is encompasses both genders. Here are just two of the many female MB&F wearers that night.
And here are four more.

MB&F launches the HM3 Frog in Singapore
Two weeks ago Max Busser was in town to unveil the Horological Machine No. 3 Frog at a dinner organised by retailer The Hour Glass at the Garden Suite of the Mandarin Oriental. Also on show was the HM2 Sapphire Vision launched earlier this year during SIH...

Indeed.. I think that gentleman collector you mentioned
with the grey striped shirt looking to the left was looking at the diamond crusted HM1. Trust you to know the who's who of our horological scene Great report (again)!
There was another prominent gentleman collector missing
which was a shame otherwise it would have been a hall of fame gathering with one or two gatecrashers who dropped by on the way to the airport. - SJX
Part 2: Dinner
While guests ate Max stopped by at each table to interact on a more personal level. Buying a watch from an independent watchmaker is all about the person or people behind the product so this is vital....

Part 4: The end
Unfortunately I had to catch a flight so could not stay till the end but if this was anything like prior years' dinners it is certain guests stayed past dessert to mingle and talk. Above: Dr Bernard Cheong and Wong Mei Ling of The Hour Glass; Bernard was ...

Amazing report of an amazing event. We all know that the new FROG is going to be a fantastic watch, and personally, I look forward to seeing it in person. However, something more impressive to me at this event was the fact that there are so many ladies we...

Ridiculous collection of cars! :-)
Wow. That's the only appropriate word here. The new Frog is cute, and I love the green rotor, but the HM2 Sapphire Vision is the HOTNESS! That watch is so cool! Thanks for all the pictures and coverage! Cheers, Daos
MB&F and fast cars go together
the owners of both are one and the same. I don't know if that indicates good taste or bad. - SJX
if only these cars were taxis
and the the taxi driver was wearing a frog but where would / should he be taking me? amerix
This watch is starting to grow on me...
IMHO It is definately a big improvement on the original HM3, which doesn't talk to me at all. It looks like it was a great event. Don
Same here
when I first saw the Frog during SIHH I thought it looked ridiculous. But now the black one with a green rotor is attractive in an unorthodox way. - SJX
The Frog is cute...
and so much more legible than the original HM3 which was my one gripe with the piece.Congrats to Max for another fine presentation & thanks for the post SJX. The HM1 continues to be the standard bearer - for me anyway. cheers fernando
Great report SJX! I saw the HM no3 yesterday
at the event but I didn't have the time to take a closer look and I'm starting to pay attention to this collection, I hope they're not made of steel ??!! After hearing what Bernard said yesterday on the Gold vs Steel, CEO not taking bus thingy hahahahaha ...
