MB&F continues to deepen its connection to cars, revealing the supercar-inspired HM8 Mark 2 in 2023 with the distinctive "double bubble" crystal shape in two editions. Now, the HM8 Mark 2 comes back with a new 2024 limited edition featuring glossy sapphire blue bodywork. Thanks to their metallic pigments and a translucid material, the blue body panels recall luxurious car paints, both technically and aesthetically. A sapphire prism allows the jumping hours and trailing minutes to be indicated vertically through the flat top of the movement, in a case designed like a chassis wrought in titanium and blue CarbonMacrolon® body panels. The battle axe rotor that powers the movement is incredibly complex to make as one of the 22-carat gold blades is only two-tenths of a millimeter thick. It cannot possibly be machined so it had to be stamped, with the engraving already incorporated into the stamp. The HM8 Mark 2 sports a brand-new type of crown that has a sort of “double de-clutch” system. It works by pushing the crown in and turning it three-quarters of a turn to release it, gaining space and providing additional security to the system. Limited to 33 pieces.
