MB&F - LM1 M.A.D. Dubai

I love the green colour of the dial on the new LM1 M.A.D. Dubai.

A. Lange & Söhne - Grand Complication (part 2)

Lange have recently delivered the first Grand Complication of only six pieces planned in total. Some lucky person is getting to enjoy this right now.




Here's an inside look into the creation of this piece, which takes over a year.




















The rediscovered masterpiece from circa 1902 that inspired the new version: the Grand Complication pocket watch 42500, pictured here after and before restoration.

Moritz Grossmann... now

Named after the Glashütte based founder of his own manufacture, which ran from 1854 to 1885, the modern manufacture of Moritz Grossmann was founded in 2008, and now resides in its own modern building.






Having never visited a manufacture myself, I enjoy these insights into fine watchmaking.
