MB&F Legacy Machine Split Escapement EVO 04.TR.LB

The first editions of the LM Split Escapement were presented in MB&F’s classic Legacy Machine case – but the collection now also features the EVO case, conceived for a more active lifestyle.

This new case design first came to life in 2020 in the form of the LM Perpetual EVO; it features 80 metres of water resistance, a screw-down crown, an integrated rubber strap and a bezel-free design. But the EVO concept goes deeper: inside the case, the movement is suspended thanks to a world-premiere, monobloc shock-absorbing “FlexRing” system, dampening the kind of vertical and horizontal shocks that come with real-life adventures.

Next to the LM Perpetual EVO and LM Sequential EVO, the LM Split Escapement EVO was first introduced as a limited edition for the UAE’s 50th anniversary. There are three additional LM SE EVO editions: the first comes in an icy-cool blue base plate and slate grey subdials. The second edition is reserved exclusively for the MB&F LAB in Beverly Hills and features a striking black base plate and metallic blue subdials. And finally, a third edition joins the family in 2023 ; a sophisticated black and green edition for Taipei.
