Hands-On: With the MB&F HMX Tenth Anniversary Watch, And A Second Look At HM6 (Live Pics, Though
This year is the tenth anniversary of one of the most interesting ongoing stories in watchmaking: the horological think-tank and design refinery known as MB&F. The company got its start when Max Büsser, formerly the head of the watch division of Harry Winston (where he helmed, among other things, the genesis of the legendary Opus series of watches) decided to leave the relative security of corporate life in the watch world (I use the world “relative” advisedly) and pursue his own very idiosyncratic vision of horological design. The basic inspiration behind the general design language of MB&F is pretty well known to serious enthusiasts – much of it is derived from Büsser’s own childhood fascination with the seemingly endlessly inventive worlds of fantasy, and science fiction, and he’s mined those worlds very effectively for both specific design cues, and for something more intangible: a marriage of nostalgia and design innovation, with an

Any red flags here?

Oysterflex set up on my SS Ceramic Daytona
I have another thread many of you have seen, discussing the possibility of mounting an oysterflex on a daytona with end links to provide the same look of the new WG Daytona on Oysterflex. I've been documenting my process in that thread, but I've received tons of questions about the set up. I finally got it sized correctly. I'm up and running and thought it'd be nice to start a new thread just showing the watch and answering any questions about the set up.I am absolutely in love with this look, and my hope is that it will quench my thirst for that new white gold beauty.I bought the end links from our own Smartyjones18 who is a total pleasure to work with. While I wait for the correct size OF piece, I used a leather strap with the end links and the fit was super snug and perfect. While I feel the fit with the end links and OF is good, it's not perfect. If you play with the strap you can see a little bit of play in the end link, but While it's on the wrist it doesn't move at all. O
