howdy folks, I am very happy to share with you the delivery of my HM5. unlike its siblings, this time round I did not have to wait months on end....I was pleasantly surprised to receive "the call" that my watch has arrived. I will write a proper report af...  

As you know, the HM5 didn't seduce me like the previous Machines did. It is the reason why I expect your review. Enjoy your watch! Fx

Leaves room for subsequent improvement. So far, other then the rubber strap which I dislike(and that is just a personal choice), its been great on Day 2. Best, Horo

here with two of my other Machines....waiting for a similar leather strap for the no5 ...  

... all refreshingly unique but clearly of the same family. Max and his collaborators are to be congratulated on that. Great collection, Kevin. And also impressive that the first deliveries of the HM5 are occurring so soon after the launch. Bravo. Andrew

Some would say fingers crossed!! There are 20 firm orders in Singapore alone, and there are only 66 pieces in the initial run....lets see what Max is gonna do next....probably a precious metal version, if I dare hazard a guess. Best, Horo

Looking forward to your on-the-wrist review. Regards, ED-209

So far I have been approached by a guy asking me if it is the HM5. If only it's a girl :)-...... So uneventful thus far. I remember when I first wore my Devon T1....was picked up by a cute girl at the bar counter....gonna try my luck again later at this n... 

That was kick, I imagine you'll have all the time now to admire its beautiful lines... Congratulations Horo. Cheers, Mark

Happy new year and thanks matey Best, Horo

I like it more every time I see it. Particularly that Lambo-esque view from the rear. You really are a child of the 70's. Enjoy it my friend. Andrew

And to the MAD gallery. See you there Best, Child of the 70s :)-

Cheers, Horo

Got to say it has been a busy year for you! And you have taken me along for the glad that u did though. Wear the machines in good health and I shall see you soon in SG

Think it's a horological vintage year....despite all the boom, doom and gloom. Seeing you very soon? Best, Horo

Looking forward to your review. cheers PAt

The HM1 is rather boring...but everyone else since is quite crazy!! Cheers, and happy 2013 Horo

but glad you got it my friend,it complements your machine stable.... I am sure this wtch needs a live experience as pictures fail in grasping its true essence... Well done mate!See you at SIHH? Mo

Must try it on the wrist. Had a skeptical friend that went down to collect with me, and was sold on the spot after seeing it live, and place himself on the wait list. Yes, SIHH from Sunday to Weds....will I see you? Best, Horo

I will call you soon to arrange lunch or dinner.... Mo

and thank for the "unboxing" shots - never seen what packages the HMs come in and this one looks very cool! Happy 2013, Andreas

They reflect the theme of the watch...all very cool. Thanks mate, and have a great 2013 Best, Horo

as I am uncertain about what to make the that watch.

This is one Machine that seems to be better in real life then the pictures, unlike the rest of its siblings. Happy 2013 mate Best, Horo

Best, Horo

On going to it or Basel this year.

Congrats again, looking forward to seeing this piece. Cheers Andrew

And 2012 has been a great year for both of us in terms of Indies and AHCI...lets hope similar for 2013!! Best, Horo

very bold and refreshing design..this watch is so you ;) I like the watch very much after all I'm 70ies child as well :) Happy new 2013 dear Horo Damjan P.S. MB & F Wallet? They returned you spare cash? :) :)

It's not always about inventing new things, but with good inspiration and clear interpretation MBF wallet is for the $3.60 change that I received, plus two Macdonald Happy Meal vouchers :)- oh yes, they left the instructions and warranty booklet inside to... 

What a futuristic machine. Enjoy. JerryW

It's a watch that I have worn for 5 days in a roll, rarely even for new watch have that occurred, the other two times this year was for its stablemate the LM1 and the Laurent Ferrier Micro-rotor Thanks, and have a wonderful 2013 Best, Horo

I did wonder not whether, but when, you'll add the HM5 to your collection. You are undeniably one of, if not THE biggest MB&F collector here! Great watch and I must say it wasn't easy taking it off and handing it back once I strapped it on my wrist. V... 

Just like that Catholic school girl I met when I was in college.....I have to have her....I mean it. :)- I understand that most of the allocation has been taken up, anyway, since I can't afford the P400 Lamborghini, this is the next best choice I gathered... 

I really love the shape of the case! Enjoy it! Singapore definitely has WIS!

Thanks matey...have a great new year eve. Best, Horo

...looks great ! Have a great new year !(see you in Switzerland soon ?) Cheers, Rob

Thanks mate, will pop by your outfit? Best, Horo

...I won't be at the show every day though, so pm or mail me when you're here, and we'll sort something out. Cheers! Rob

Best, Horo

He said it was miiiine :( cen@jkt

Naturally, know where he stays helped....:)- Best, Horo

that's amazing, how did you get this so early?

Thanks, Horo

And for loaning the watch to me for one hour. I decided to buy one after your loan, and the sales people told me no stock. Can you ask for me please

But I think all Singapore inventory is spoken for. Will text you later Apols for late reply Best, Horo

Love the cool box :) Cheers, Anthony

Just in time for the long stretch of holidays. Best, Horo
