Horological Machine No. 3 Frog

Maximilian Busser & Friends (MB & F) presente another masterpiece – Horological Machine No. 3 Frog. Time on this unusual watch is displayed on the two dials under the sapphire glass resembling frog eye. One dial is used to display hours and the other for minutes. Both are made of aluminum and combine high strength with low weight, resulting in minimizing power consumption in their rotation. One of the hardest things in the creation of this watch was to create glass of hemispherical shape from sapphire. The desired visual effect can be achieved only on the ideal glass shape, but it is extremely difficult. Total will be made 32 such chronometers. 12 of them will be in the black titanium corp with a green cage, and the remaining 20 ordinary titanium corp with a green cage.
