I have been a long-time admirer of Max Büsser's work, and the work of his partners both inside MB&F and outside the company itself. Creating so many dramatically different watches, so consistently, over so long a period of time is nearly impossible to do well, and I can't think of any other company large or small which has managed to produce such a wide variety of timepieces to such a high technical and aesthetic standard. That it is difficult is I think obvious but the orchestration necessary to bring one of these watches to life is impressive as hell nonetheless. MB&F is extremely transparent about its "friends" (the F in MB&F), and the list of people and firms which have to all work together in order to make one of these watches happen is quite incredible. It's astonishing that one can be made to happen, much less 10 distinctly different Machines over the years.
