Legacy Machine Perpetual - reinventing the perpetual calendar<br />
The MB&F Legacy Machine Perpetual recently won a GRAND<br />
PRIX D’HORLOGERIE DE GENEVE – the most prestigious,<br />
coveted prize in the watchmaking world. The award was<br />
the result of a long and merciless selection process by a<br />
respected international jury, which first considered more<br />
than a dozen calendar watches, then nominated a shortlist of<br />
just 6 outstanding finalists, and finally awarded us with their<br />
highest distinction.<br />
As such, MB&F has launched TWO NEW EDITIONS of the<br />
Legacy Machine Perpetual in 18K WHITE GOLD. After last<br />
year’s launch editions in platinum and rose gold, both<br />
limited to 25 pieces and sold out within just a few months,<br />
MB&F is introducing a new 25-piece limited edition in white<br />
gold – instantly recognisable thanks to its striking purple face<br />
– as well as a non-limited edition, also in white gold, with a<br />
more understated dark grey face.<br />
Among other innovations, the Legacy Machine Perpetual<br />
movement is based on a default month of 28 days –<br />
instead of the usual 31 – and is controlled by a patented<br />
“mechanical processor” which adds days only as required.<br />
The result is a robust, fool-proof mechanism that is<br />
also extremely user-friendly, allowing quick and easy<br />
adjustments.<br />
Legacy Machine Perpetual is available in three limited<br />
editions of 25 pieces each in platinum 950 (blue face),<br />
18k red gold (grey face) and 18k white gold (purple face);<br />
and in a non-limited edition in 18k white gold with grey<br />
face. The Hour Glass is the exclusive retailer of MB&F in<br />
Singapore.<br />
The Legacy Machine Perpetual retails at S$242,300.<br />
