Maximilian Büsser could be considered the Steve Jobs of horology.
That intends no disrespect to the latter man’s passing, and we feel Jobs
would be well-honored by the comparison. Büsser and friends have
worked to revolutionize the world of luxury watch craft by exploring
out-of-this world designs and precision execution. The MB&F Thunderbolt Watch
is one of their greatest, a marvelous complication inspired by its
namesake’s childhood interest in model airplane construction. A pair of
twin conical cylinders recalls the double-engine designs of mid-century
aircraft, one of which displays time and the other shows the watch’s
power reserve. It is a watch like this that reflects MB&F’s
willingness to fracture the rules, to try something different and do so
in unparalleled form.
