MB&F has re-engineered its classic Legacy Machine 1, first launched in 2011, into the LM1 EVO, designed for a more active lifestyle. This updated model features a more compact 42mm case, improved shock absorption, increased water resistance, and a longer power reserve, building on the EVO concept introduced with the LM Perpetual.
- Available in titanium or 18k rose gold
- 60-hour power reserve
- 80m water resistance
- Limited to 33 pieces for the rose gold edition
- Price for rose gold: CHF 102,000 / USD 137,000 / EUR 111,000
- Price for titanium: CHF 82,000 / USD 109,000 / EUR 89,000
The LM1 EVO features a redesigned inclined arc power reserve indicator to track its increased 60-hour power reserve, up from the original LM1's 45 hours.
The balance wheel has been upgraded with a Straumann double hairspring for improved accuracy and isochronism, appearing under a redesigned titanium bridge.
The manual-winding calibre, developed with Jean-François Mojon, features 19th-century finishing supervised by Kari Voutilainen, including gold chatons, Geneva waves, and polished bevels.
The case incorporates a patented FlexRing shock-absorption system and two screw-down crowns, contributing to its 80m water resistance.
The integrated rubber straps are interchangeable via a quick-release system on the case and clasp.
The rose gold edition has a green dial plate and gold-toned hands, while the titanium edition features a rhodium-plated dial plate and blue arrow-tipped hands, both with luminescence.
