MB&F’s HM8 Mark 2 Supercar For The Wrist Get A Racy Sapphire Blue Bodywork

The enthusiasm for cars and watches is often a shared affinity for mechanical marvels. Be it the growling roar of a naturally-aspirated V8 or the meticulously precise oscillation of a balance wheel, the allure of a perfectly choreographed motion of components is a fascination for many. Among the ones inspired, is a dreamer, a watch designer, an irresistibly adorable personality and none other than the founder of MB&F - Maximilian Büsser. As a blossoming child, Max always dreamt about being a car designer. While the universe had a parallel plan for him, his realized career path never restricted his creative and magnificent exhibition of automotive affinity. This got metamorphized as a wrist adornment in the form of HM5 launched in 2012. The dream peaked when Max introduced the HM8 in 2016 which refined further to yield the HM8 Mark 2 in 2023. Now the supercar inspired design gets wheeled off as a limited edition of 33 timepieces featuring titanium chassis and a sapphire blue bodywork.

A Watch Built Like a Car

Tracing the automotive inspired design cues for the HM8 Mark 2 won’t be a hassle for true petrolheads. The aesthetic boasts significant design cues hinting towards the trademark aesthetic of the Porsche 918 Spyder. Just like an automobile, only this time fit for the wrist, we get a 30 meters water-resistant chassis which houses its powerhouse, a three-dimensional engine featuring jumping hour and trailing minutes displays, evoking the speedometer aesthetic of the 70s. The movement is based on a Girard-Perregaux caliber packing in a mileage of 42 hours from a full tank. It revs, beats harmonically, at a rate of 28,800 vph and is constructed from a total of 247 components with a 22k gold rotor being the true masterstroke in its construction.

Although this 2024 iteration of the HM8 Mark 2 features updates limited to cosmetic nuances, they sure let the timepiece express its automotive roots even better. The bodywork gets a metallic pigment paintwork, just like we see in supercars. It’s constructed from MB&F exclusive CarbonMacrolon composite material for added strength and rigidity. The metallic sapphire blue hues evoke a deep automotive allure and surely strike all the right chords, for horology aficionados and car lovers alike. Paired with a sporty and white calfskin strap, the overall package feels very racy.

The translation of automotive essence isn’t limited to aesthetic inspiration but mechanical nuances and nomenclature as well. Its crown is a one-of-a-kind system featuring a ‘double de-clutch’ system for engagement or activation. Positioned at its posterior side, the crown required a push-twist motion for extraction.

Our Thoughts

The metallic sapphire blue hue is a welcome addition to the HM8 Mark 2 series. It further accentuates its automotive essence and makes it appear even sportier. Just like the Porsche 918 Spyder on which it's aesthetically based, the timepiece feels and appears to be racing away at 200 mph even while being still on the wrist. The glossy aesthetic makes it feel even more aerodynamic, a true secret in gaining on the last few notches of speed which make all the difference between being the first to cross the checkered flag or the one among losers. After all, Ayrton Senna poetically expressed the notion as, “Being second is to be the first of the ones who lose.”

HM8 MARK 2 - TECHNICAL DETAILS

HM8 Mark 2 is available: in titanium and green CarbonMacrolon® body panels limited to 33 pieces; in titanium and white CarbonMacrolon® body panels; in titanium and blue CarbonMacrolon® body panels limited to 33 pieces.

Among Cartier's iconoclastic early designs, the Tortue watch unveiled in 1912 stood out for its audacious tortoise-inspired shape. While the Santos-Dumont and Tonneau models preceded it, the Tortue's curvaceous case marked a bold departure from the era's round watches. Often overlooked next to Cartier's legendary Tank, the Tortue remains one of the Maison's most brilliant and enduring creations. With the 2024 Cartier Privé release featuring the Tortue, this unhurried horological hero reaffirms its lasting appeal at Watches & Wonders 2024.

The Revamped Tortue:

For the 8th edition of the prestigious Cartier Privé collection, the brand unveils contemporary interpretations of the Tortue across simple time-only and premium chronograph versions. While retaining the archetypal tortoise silhouette, the new models feature refined proportions. Elongated lugs seamlessly flow into the straps, while slimmer cases lend an elegant lightness.

The hours/minutes versions demonstrate incredible attention to detail. On the yellow gold pieces, the finely-grained golden dials are quintessential Cartier, complemented by sapphire cabochon crowns and iconic blue alligator straps. The platinum models are exercises in chromatic harmony - opaline silvered dials, ruby cabochon crowns, and cartier diamond watches-pavé buckles create a regal aesthetic. All models, including a 50-piece diamond-set platinum cartier limited edition watches, are powered by Cartier's ultra-thin manual-wind Calibre 430 MC, optimized for the iconic curved case.

The Monopoussoir Chronograph

However, the pièce de résistance is undoubtedly the Tortue Monopoussoir Chronograph driven by the Manufacture Calibre 1928 MC. Remarkably, the original 1928 Tortue Monopoussoir was Cartier's very first chronograph. This diminutive 25mm by 35mm watch pioneered the innovative single-pusher concept – with the start, stop, and reset functions all controlled by one pusher integrated into the crown.

It housed a traditional column-wheel chronograph movement with a horizontal clutch, yet stood out with distinctive 1920s design elements. These included a slim hand-carved bezel, matte dial with blocky Roman numerals, chemin de fer minute track and exquisite flame-blued Breguet hands. Produced in extremely limited numbers, an original 1928 Tortue Monopoussoir is an exceedingly rare sight at modern auctions.

The 2024 revival captures the essence of this groundbreaking chronograph in a superbly refined modern form. The legible dial layout prioritizes the monopusher concept, with the rail-track chapter ring on the periphery leaving ample room for the two snailed chronograph counters. Signature flourishes like blued-steel hands, hollowed central chronograph hand, and triangular quarter markers enrich the already scintillating visuals. Yet the real magic reveals itself through the open caseback - the superbly decorated column-wheel choreographing the high-precision levers and springs in a mechanical dance.

At just 4.3mm, the 1928 MC is Cartier's thinnest chronograph calibre ever, a remarkable feat condensed into a curved asymmetric case only 10.2mm thick. The finissage combines age-old decorations like Geneva striping with immaculate hand-bevelling, brushing and circular graining. The monochrome platinum model juxtaposes rhodium-plating against blued counters, while the yellow gold variant radiates warmth through its honeyed dials and counters.

Final Thoughts!

Limited to 200 pieces each in platinum and yellow gold, the Tortue Monopusher is, in my opinion, one of the haute horlogerie world's most underrated gems. By combining centuries of high-watchmaking craft with a unique curved signature design tracing back to 1928, it achieves a level of aesthetic and mechanical coherence few can match. While the exorbitant pricing limits access, these are ultimately peerless examples of the sheer innovation and avant-garde spirit that defines cartier watches at its best.

With this sublime new Privé collection, the iconic Tortue regains its rightful place alongside the Maison's most legendary designs. For the true connoisseur, these creations represent slow, steady genius finally recognized as the timeless classics they are. The race for horological perfection has a new front-runner - unhurried, uncompromising, and entirely unforgettable.

Lady-Datejust Oyster Perpetual by Rolex Paired with a Prada Alabaster Pink Crystal Bag

The Oyster case, with a diameter of 28 millimeters, boasts a domed bezel that catches the light, emphasizing the elegance of the case sides and lugs. Described by Rolex as a timeless embodiment of a constant pursuit of excellence, this watch is a perfect choice for those who appreciate perfection.

Derived from the iconic Datejust introduced in 1945, the Lady-Datejust made its debut in 1957, capturing the essence of chic sophistication and technical mastery. For a finishing touch, the Alabaster Pink Prada Bag adorned with crystals is the perfect complement. This mini hobo bag, available in satin and featuring the brand's signature enamel triangle logo, seamlessly blends class and luxury for a complete and refined look.
