MB&F LM Thunderdome Triple Axis Regulator / Review, Price
Max Busser and Friends, or simply MB&F, was created as an avant-garde horological lab with a vision: gathering talents to create radical mechanical art pieces. For its latest creation, Busser got two of his long-time friends to collaborate for the first time; the discreet Finnish master Kari Voutilainen and the inventive Eric Coudray.

The result, which first surfaced in 2021, is the blue and orange Diver X Skeleton reviewed
