Independents’ Day: MB&F and H. Moser Team Up for a Pair of Co-Signed Limited Editions
MB&F founder Max Büsser and H. Moser & Cie. CEO Edouard Meylan have worked together for more than 10 years, mostly behind the scenes: Moser’s sister firm Precision Engineering AG has been MB&F’s supplier of balance springs. This year, the two independent brands step into the spotlight together with a stunning horological duet: two co-signed timepieces each incorporating signature elements of the other’s brand.

Büsser ? whose entire brand concept revolves around utilizing the horological savoir faire of a coterie of “friends” (the “F” in MB&F) ? reached out to Meylan to propose a collaboration on an MB&F Performance Art timepiece, one preferably utilizing the double balance spring and fumé dial that have become signature Moser features. Meylan immediately agreed and made his own “counter-proposal” of also reinterpreting one of MB&F’s Horological Machines as a Moser special edition. Busser jumped aboard for the idea and suggested one of his favorite inventions, the FlyingT, as the basis for an MB&F-flavored Moser watch. The results are a set of extraordinary 15-piece limited editions, marking both the 15th anniversary of the MB&F brand and the 15th year since the relaunch of H. Moser & Cie.
