There is one technical constant that defines every single watch in the MB&F Legacy Machine collection.

In Legacy Machine Split Escapement, this feature is not only highlighted, but raised to another level of achievement. Just below the highest point of the domed dial crystal, the balance of LM SE beats at a sedate, traditional 2.5Hz / 18,000bph. |
