Independents

Today, collaborations are all over the place - completely commonplace. But, over a decade ago, such collaborations weren't frequent occurrences. Ten years ago, back in 2015; MB&F, JMC Lutherie, and Reuge made 99 of these spaceship music boxes. A total of ...  

I listened to the current models at the MB&F salon in Geneva last year - spectacular workmanship and sound!

There's also a Reuge store in Geneva not far from the M.A.D. Gallery. It's usually worth a visit!

and these MB&F automated machines are truly great creations. As always, though, the futuristic design doesn’t speak to me. I much prefer a more traditional design like this one, seen in Le Locle watchmaking Museum. Yosuke Sekiguchi, who I visited just bef...  

But, I am a Star Wars fan. And what can I say... When this came out... I just couldn't keep my eyes off of it!

I was eight years old when The Empire Strikes Back came out and I remember it vividly, as well as The Return of the Jedi, three years later. But I never got into the Prequel or Sequel trilogies. I completely lost interest. The old-school guy in me took ov...

Considering luxury watches today are a 50 Billion CHF per annum business, 10% would be a healthier number than I would've projected. But what you say is possible! Imagine. If Rolex wanted to make "product X," they have the power to influence millions of p... 

The Richard Mille Towers at Burj Khalifa 😁, this is Fun! Girard Perregaux Golfing Clubs 🤣

I like this Electric Cadillac Escalade with Rolex inspiration idea!

I absolutely love the choice of tunes! How special for someone, who owns one! Thanks Patrick!

I like the choice of the tunes as well. They're all from the 60s and 70s, supposedly they were chosen by Max Busser himself - who had a penchant for TV Show and Movie music from his childhood. I suppose there were also licensing requirements involved (the... 

And I like how the priority is to create something amazing, something fun, and something true to the MB&F brand.
