On the other hand, Max did say that
it is untenable to turn out consecutive "difficult" projects in a series e.g. the Opus series.
Sometimes, you have to alternate the complicated with the simple. There is no devaluation in an exquisite "simple" product. Actually, it is more challenging to make a great simple watch that epitomises the mission for MB&F: Blending Art and Engineering.
Some time back, Max said in an interview that the series may be alternating big-small projects...........

CONTEST: What do you think the MB&F Horological Machine No. 2 will be?
- CONTEST CLOSED - Max Busser will be unveiling the Horological Machine No. 2 in November ( click here for more on the Singapore launch). Here's the simple question: what functions do you think the watch will contain? As a clue, here is a complete list of...
Judging by what's been revealed of the movement previously,
...my guess is that it will have four barrels, bestowing a huge power reserve. Four dials, each mounted concentrically over a barrel arbor. With all these dials and all this power, my guess is that it will be a highly complicated watch. Max wouldn't do so...

A teaser about Horological Machine Number 3
Dear All, I can’t add much about HM2, but I did have a chat with Max Busser at Tempus regarding the trend to having the mechanical mechanism as the centre of attention with the time-telling function of secondary importance; much like Opus 6, I guess (whic...
Andrew - I like that - "UNOBTANIUM"...
That put a smile on my face. I recall that from some Sci Fi movie abt going into the core of the earth (unfortunately I cannot recall the name). It would truly be a classic name for an MBF watch! Cheers!
As I said in a previous post...
with the first pic of the watch it looks like the crown is controlled by the steel / white gold (?) pusher. Does this serve to lock / unlock the crown, or to set the function? A perpetual calender with the MB&F signatory two dials, one for the time, one f...
If the power reserve is 31 days...
the date indicator could double as PR hand... And a wind-alert could be usefull, in a month you forget a lot! Interesting to note the spware case design... M.
