First launched in 2019, the Legacy Machine FlyingT was MB&F’s first-ever machine dedicated to women. Awarded the prize for Best Ladies’ Complication at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève, the Legacy Machine FlyingT was launched in three different 18K white gold versions. Then in 2020, they were joined by limited editions in red gold and platinum, featuring guilloche dials as well as a Lapis Lazuli dial and an 18K white gold case set with diamonds. In 2021, MB&F added a malachite dial version, and in 2022 a tiger eye dial.
Now comes a diamond-set edition in an 18K white gold case with a dial plate in ‘Cœur de Rubis’ —anyolite— in a limited edition of 5 pieces that are sold exclusively by PMT The Hour Glass in Bangkok.
This is the fourth version of a series of gemstone editions that MB&F will announce once a year. After Lapis Lazuli, Malachite and Tiger Eye, now comes the 'Coeur de Rubis' —aka anyolite. Anyolite is a combination of Ruby within Zoisite and is also known as Ruby Zoisite.
Powering this new edition is the same movement with the soaring vertical structure of the FlyingT movement, topped by a 60-second flying tourbillon. The sun-shaped winding rotor ensures the automatic movement is fully wound, offering 100 hours of power reserve.
The time is displayed thanks to delicate serpentine hands on a tilted subdial placed at 7 o’clock, visible only to the wearer of the watch; an unconventional layout underlining the intimate, personal nature of the LM FlyingT.
