Agree completely.
In addition to being beautiful (at least to me), it is a REVOLUTIONARY change/improvement in chronographs. Never been done before. Nothing like it.
I am super hot for the new flyback sequential EVO - just the declining USD and tariffs make it impossible

Mb&F Sequential - Review
The Perpetual Legacy Machine has been a grail of mine for years. When MB&F released the EVO variant, it improved it with swimmable water resistance, lume and shock resistance; I knew I had to have one. Then, the Sequential EVO Chronograph took that a step...
Thanks!
This is the best forum for finding information and honest reviews on independents, so I have to contribute!!!
Thank you for the detailed review!
I have had mine for 2 years and pretty much agree with everything you said. The designs are polarizing and not for everyone, but indeed in terms of matchmaking few come close to what MB&F have achieved across their model lines. And the sequential is their...
Nice! Yeah the oj looks great on yours
I mocked up dark red which I think would look awesome but they don’t have it. Also I nearly puked after paying the price for the rubber strap. Kind of ridiculous lol ...
Yes, that looks great!
I can't argue with the price being silly ... Although I do hear that those are not that cheap to make, and as you can imagine volume is pretty low.
Maybe
I make small run rubber products at some of the brands I own and it’s really just the mold which is a negligible one time cost
Sounds like you know more than I do!
From what I understand in Switzerland it is expensive simply because producers don't want to deal with small orders.
Ahhh
Are these made in Switzerland? That would make more sense I guess. I am used to costs for molds in China or Thailand
One of the most important points you make is that this watch has substance. It will always be more relevant than any finely finished time only watch of this era.
There is a price difference of course, but even with this watch being at 150% to 200% the price of the innumerable time only wonders of today, that other stuff still makes a lot less sense when you put something like this beside it. Maybe I’m smoking some...
That’s OK.
There is obviously a place for those also. The question is how do we ascribe value. Innovation, technical mastery is worth X, time and perfection of a skill is worth X - Y. I don’t know if that’s fair. But one can be taught. The other can’t.
Agree completely.

Agreed
I wish more brands would mess with chronographs in general. Feels under explored.
Congrats to you my friend 👍
My wife is literally consoling me. Ah well, if you ever... you know. Congrats again, well played.
Thanks for taking us on your journey !
This watch is beautiful both in design and complication. The finishing is great, and it has very unique wrist presence. It’s like a Ferrari v8 on your wrist !
Huge congrats! Such an amazing piece, really one of the most amazing chronographs ever made. The black dial is relatively rare too, I believe when sequential was launched demand and production for the orange dial was like 3:1 over the black.
My favorite are the huge titanium wheels, such an epic and unique looking movement on both sides. Hands are something that MB&F just doesn't seem to labor over that much in general, not just the evos. Maybe because they're all so tiny and so many, 7 h...
Thanks so much for this fabulous in depth review 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The most encouraging aspect I find to be the dearth of bad experiences - many other independents seem to falter there much too often and the watches not perform as well in the daily grind as advertised. Wishing you many years of fun with this one and us m...
Same here
This was a lot of $ for me so I rest a little easier knowing others have had good experiences with Mb&f
Thanks for your in-depth post about your thoughts on this amazing LM
I was lucky to play with one a few times from a fellow WPS member. Def one of the best Chronographs till today imho .
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Looking forward to reading your thoughts after you've had the piece for a few months!
I actually like the pics already!
But I am happy to see the improvement with the new lens!
It is an amazing looking watch
Thank you for the review. The evo seems to be the version to get.
Once again congratulations on its arrival and thanks for the pictures and all your thoughts on it.
Wear and enjoy it in good health. Marc
McDonnell is a genius and a true watchmaker
Finishing has become overrated and does not add any extra value to the sector. It took another great watchmaker ( still him 🤩) to redesign a calendar, so there are many ways to innovate. Enjoy this beast and keep on sharing it with us 👍🏻🏆
