Here at WCL we’ve always been huge fans of the M.A.D.Editions that bring the MB&F magic closer to those that have to remain within a tighter budget when it comes to watches.

Introducing: M.A.D.1 GREEN Edition. Third Time is a Charm for Those That Still Haven't Gotten One.
Now, the MB&F team announces the M.A.D.1 GREEN, a third edition of the M.A.D.1 wristwatch that was first presented in June 2021. After the original M.A.D.1 BLUE “Friends and Tribe Edition” and the M.A.D.1 RED, the M.A.D.1 GREEN joins M.A.D.Editions’ colorful series in September 2023. With this new choice of vivid mint green, fans and collectors who haven’t been able to acquire their own M.A.D.1 yet, will get another chance — with a little bit of luck— to be picked and join wearers of the blue and red models.
From the Editor: M.A.D.1 RED Edition. Good Luck on the Lottery for the Hottest Watch at the Moment.
After so many inquiries and direct messages via Instagram I felt the need to write an editorial on the new M.A.D.1 RED Edition. First of all, I consider myself very fortunate that after many emails that I sent out to MB&F back when the M.A.D.1 Friends Edition came out last year, I was added to the list of interested people and this gave me access to be one of the first ones to be able to purchase the just released M.A.D.1 RED Edition. I am also very lucky that I was in Geneva for Watches & Wonders 2022 a couple of weeks ago and I was able to collect my piece in person at the M.A.D. Gallery. What an incredible experience to say the least.
Introducing: M.A.D.1 RED Edition. The Saga Continues After the 'Friends Edition'.
Two weeks ago we brought a special feature on the M.A.D.1 Friends Edition here on WCL after almost a whole year since it was launched. While the M.A.D.1 is not an MB&F Machine, but a more accessible timepiece that was created under a different brand, the idea was still generated by Max Büsser himself. The first M.A.D.1 Friends Edition literally broke the internet and it was reserved for ‘Friends’ —suppliers who help MB&F create their MB&F Machines— and to the members of ‘The Tribe’ —the owners of MB&F machines.
Rare Bird: M.A.D. 1 Friends Edition. Exclusively for MB&F Friends and The Tribe.
Before the end of 2021, Max Büsser did the unthinkable releasing a watch priced at CHF 1,900 Swiss Francs —approximately $2,000 USD. Reserved for his friends and what MB&F likes to call The Tribe —the select group of clients that have purchased MB&F watches in the past. The M.A.D. 1 Friends Edition looks a lot like an MB&F but is not one. Between the finishes, the engine, and the craftsmanship, the M.A.D. 1 is just a fun watch that Max Büsser launched because he can. And you know what? We love that.
