MB&F: M.A.D.Editions x Jean-Charles de Castelbajac
The amazing team at MB&F have done it again! This time, it's limited to 999 pieces! It's also the first time MB&F has allowed an external creator to come into the foray. Legendary French designer, Jean-Charles de Castelbajac (pictured above to the lef...
Fresh indeed. At least to my simple eye, I prefer a bit more subdued approach.
I applaud their creativity nonetheless. ...
Love it, and great to see added style for the strap design / details. (✿◕‿◕✿)
Put in for my ticket, tho if a Tribe member does not want theirs i'd love the opportunity.
Alain silberstein vibes
This overall watch doesn't speak to me in any iteration. That said I appreciate people trying to do different than standard display
It does have Silberstein vibes!
I wouldn't be surprised if a Silberstein edition eventually comes... As MB&F definitely has had Silverstein editions. Although, they may be reserving the Silberstein collaboration for the MB&F products and not for the M.A.D. products. Who knows.
This one did pique my interest, if I’m going to wear a watch like this then I think best to “[insert swear word] own it” !
I will add my name to the lottery.

It's not for everyone!
They certainly didn't make it easy. But they did make it fun and bizarre.
Seems like my opinion is not popular, and as much as I love the M.A.D. Editions idea,
The idea is fast losing the sex appeal. This is the 6th version of the M.A.D. editions, and are we going to see 7th, 8th etc? The watch is fun, as long as it remains a niche within a niche, But once a company starts poring them, it turns into a commodity,...
Totally agree with your point. I hope this is their last version of the MAD1 otherwise its loosing its appeal.
I hear there will be other models in the future (MAD2 , 3 )
These M.A.D. editions never appealed to me honestly.
But i see your point, it's just becoming a cash grabber.
By certain standards, nearly everything can be considered "a cash grabber."
These watches are definitely strange, weird, bizarre, watches. Definitely not designed to appeal to everyone!
Think revenue...
Think of all the revenue these things generate... This project of 999 watches will generate around 3 million Swiss Francs in revenue, not a groundbreaking amount. Then think about how many people in the world (around 999 people) will be happy that they ha...
It's MAD
It's the entry level line to the MB&F world, though we have completely different watches with (obviously) different mechanics and finishing, as well prices. The first raffle had 19000 players, I think thi might be the last iteration before the MAD 2. Yep,...
It's definitely not for everyone!
You have to be an extremely colorful and whimsical person!
Quite cool iteration!
I think it matches very well the spirit of the watch. The case is still too tall for me (at least as it looks on pictures).
It's definitely a thick watch!
It's definitely a huge watch. More of a statement piece than daily wearer.
