====== MB&F Legacy Machine No. 1 ====== The **Legacy Machine no. 1** is a watch from [[MB&F]]. Introduced in [[2011]], the LM1 differs greatly from the [[MB&F Horological Machine No. 1|Horological Machine No. 1]] and its successors. It has the appearance of a traditional round watch, though it is no less technically advanced than its predecessors. The LM1 features two [[subdial]]s at 3 00 and 9 00 with a large [[balance]] suspended above them at the center via two bridges mounted around 12 00. The movement was created by a team lead by [[Jean-François Mojon]] and is constructed by [[Kari Voutilainen]]. It was designed to evoke classic pocket watches. The 14 mm balance beats at just 18,000 A/h, becoming the focal point of the watch face under a domed crystal. Also visible above the dial are a [[Breguet overcoil]] hairspring and the escapement. Unlike the four-barrel Horological Machine, the Legacy Machine uses a single [[barrel]] and escapement to drive two separate time dials. These may be set independently using crowns on each side at 4 00 and 8 00. Only the 4 00 crown is used to wind the manually-wound movement. An unusual vertical power reserve indicator is placed at 6 00, measuring 45 hours. The case is quite understated for MB&F, measuring just 42 mm in diameter and 16 mm thick, though it appears larger. The LM1 was priced starting at US$92,000 and is not a limited-production piece. [[MB&F]] won both the Men's Watch Prize and Public Prize at the [[Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève]] for the Legacy Machine No. 1 in November, [[2012]]. **Movement:** * [[Manual winding]] movement * Power reserve 45 hours **Dial:** * Domed sapphire * Dual time dials **Functions:** * Dual hours/minutes dials * Power reserve indicator ===== External Links ===== * [[http://www.ablogtowatch.com/mbf-legacy-machine-no-1-watch/|MB&F Legacy Machine No. 1 Watch]] {{tag>MB&F_models Watch_models}}
