The new Horological Machine from MB&F is yet another timepiece bringing us back to our childhood dreams, but this time the theme is super cars from the 70′s. The HM5 displays time vertically through a prism and has a digital feel to it. The movement is placed horizontally within a waterproof case onto which the outer zirconium case is rigged, like the architecture of super cars! Limited to 66 pieces, the HM5 is priced around CHF 55’000.- swiss francs suggested retail price. Discussion with Charris Yadigaroglou, Head of Communication of MB&F, during the presentation to the press of the MAD Gallery concept. As expected, MB&F have again set a new level with this first store mixing different mechanical sculptures: both the brand’s crazy timepieces and some art pieces from international artists. Presentation of the Only Watch 2011 auction to be held on the 23rd of September 2011 by Mr Julien Schaerer, Watch Director and Auctioneer at Antiquorum. In this special UK report, we talk with James Gurney, organizer of the much appreciated SalonQP to be held at the Saatchi Gallery early November, we also talk with Liam Chadzinski of Marcus boutique about some specificities of the british market and finally we share with you a clip of an event hosted by La Montre Hermès who commissioned a beautiful ballet piece presented to some guests and lucky member of the press! On top of having probably the craziest stand of the SIHH 2012, IWC held the biggest party of the event with many friends of the brand: Cate Blanchet, Jean Reno, Luis Figo, Zinedine Zidane, Boris Becker… Find out the Top 5 selection of Kristian Haagen at the 2103 Baselworld… Behind the scenes of a record sale by Christie’s at the Geneva auction on May 10th 2010: 6.4 Million Swiss francs for a 1943 Patek Philippe chronograph.
