Catalogue Essay
'Max Büsser made us focus on the future with all of his creations that came before the LM1. If however, we were born a hundred years ago with no Star Wars, no science fiction and no moon rockets, he would have made a traditional watch. This LM1 in pink gold features an oversized balance wheel that rotates at a unheard of frequency. the power reserve is in three-dimensional, all of which is encased with a sapphire domed crystal. The watch was so successful at its launch, it was awarded the 'Best Man's Watch Prize' at the 2012 Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Geneve.'
