Thank you Emmanuel :-)
Independents really are increasingly exciting and definitely the new frontier.

The MB&F SP ONE in platinum
I'm not usually drawn to openwork watches, nor to MB&F's very modern aesthetic , but this platinum SP ONE is wonderful. The purest of all MB&F watches? In any case, I'm captivated . What about you ? Best, Emmanuel Case : 38 x 12 (including ultra-domed...
I really like it 👍🏻
It has the Vincent Calabrese / Corum vibe in a round instead of rectangular aesthetic for me 👌🏻👏🏻
Yes, very well said.
And the triangular movement architecture is wonderful, imo. Best, Emmanuel
Personally not huge on this model
It feels kind of generic to me. Felt the same after trying one out.
Oh, I'm surprised because I really like it,
but I guess it's a sign of the fact that I'm not truly into MB&F: the one I end up liking is the generic one! 🤷🏽♂️☺️ Best, Emmanuel
I actually was writing a post on my LM101
But all of a sudden something happened on my iPhone and my post got wiped out. My favorite is probably the LM101. I just bought this rose gold mark 2 version yesterday: I love the big balance wheel and the floating white dials. Just a great and distinctiv...
Wonderful and huge congratulations on this acquisition!
This 101 looks gorgeous. Best, Emmanuel

Wow, love that LM101, and the dial is spectacular! Welcome to the Tribe 🥳😎
Please be sure to register your MB&F. thetribe.mbandf.com
MB&F... collect them all. 😎 PLUS it's great to see actual creativity and effort. 🥰
Meanwhile, at W&W the typical boring brands will just make a new dial color or case. Meh, Big Box Store brands that lazily stack up bits, versus making new movements, inventing new ways to..... etc. MB&F #winning
Yes, you describe it well.
And the Y shaped movement is wonderful, imo. Best, Emmanuel

they are the magicians of photography! Best, Emmanuel
I absolutely love this one, Emmanuel!!!😍😍😍
Similar to you, although I think Max is a great down-to-earth guy, most MB&F pieces haven’t really appealed to me. BUT every since I saw this SP One, I cannot get this one out of my head: And similar to you, I not really a fan of openwork watches: But...
Wonderful! Thanks a lot for sharing your try-on photos!
In fact in this particular case, I think platinum works better! I wish you the best for acquiring one if you can someday! Cheers, Emmanuel
I fully agree, amazing watch from A to Z 😍😍
Front and back sides are equally attractive imho! Really great work 👌👌
I find it great too, but agree with those who point the fact that a transparent dial,
which shows the wrist underneath, can end up looking more ugly than nice... Best, Emmanuel
I thought a lot about it
And my conclusion about see through dials is that it only works if you wear your watch like Gianni Agnelli, in which case you may as well rock a ploprof! From a creative point of view, it would have been interesting to have a way to change the color of th...
I agree with you that a transparent dial can end up looking more ugly than nice.
It works for me on the photos above, but I don't know if I would like it on my wrist. Best, Emmanuel
I like the LM line but this SP isn’t doing it for me tbh .
Think its a bit to minimalistic for a MB&F imho
It’s probably why I kind of like it,
even if I agree with those of us who point out the fact that transparent dials don’t always look good, depending on the wrist… Best, Emmanuel
