M.A.D. EDITIONS M.A.D. 1 GREEN

Famed for his flamboyant and eccentric designs, Maximilian Busser of MB&F is perhaps one of the best-known watchmaking CEOs in the world of horology. While his incredibly keen eye for detail has helped establish MB&F at the zenith of watchmaking, it is no surprise that collectors around the world, who he calls the Tribe, have been drawn to his charismatic devotion to his collectors. Powered by this devotion, Max began designing a new timepiece in 2020 that would blend his incredibly unique design language with a price tag that would be far more palatable than what MB&F timepieces are usually accompanied by. Offered only to a small selection of MB&F’s most-valued collectors and friends, the M.A.D. Edition 1 Blue was the result of that design process. Powered by a heavily modified automatic Miyota cal. 821A, the M.A.D. Edition 1 features a lateral time display and a titanium and tungsten triple-blade winding rotor that sits atop its case and spins incredibly fast above a colored aluminum ring. This is then matched by another aluminum ring, that rotates around the case as the hour display, which features a grey minute ring beneath it which rotates the very same way. An incredibly personal piece of design from Max’s perspective and an incredibly cool-looking and rare timepiece from the wider-watch community’s perspective, the M.A.D. 1 is as rare a timepiece as it is unique, and this is the perfect opportunity to add one to your collection. Offered here we have the M.A.D. 1 Green edition, which is one of the latest M.A.D. 1 variants, which swaps the previous variant’s blue or red aluminum rings for green, as the name implies. Brand : M.A.D. by Maximilian Busser Dimensions : 42mm x 18.8mm Model : M.A.D. Edition 1 Movement : M.A.D.1 calibre (based on Miyota 821A) Reference : Edition 1 Green Bracelet : Leather strap Year : 2023 Condition : Like new Material : Stainless steel Included : Watch, box, and papers Dial Color : Green THE DISPLAY While tall at 18.8mm, it is a practical element of the M.A.D. 1's display with its unique lateral time indication using two aluminum rings that rotate around its stainless steel case to display the hours and minutes. THE WINDING ROTOR Powered by the heavily modified and upside-down Miyota cal. 821A, the M.A.D. 1's party trick is its incredibly fast spinning triple-blade top-mounted winding rotor which sits atop a green ring. Quite the spectacle. TIMING MACHINE READOUT This reading was taken (crown down) with a ONEOF Accuracy Boutique Edition timing machine at time of cataloging.
