The legacy Machine introduced by the MB &F lies at the highest end of the horological spectrum. It was initially presented in the year 2013 and since then, it is one of the most sought after expressions of the traditional watchmaking industry. The LM2 occupies the pivotal position in innovative horology and has recently launched the new legacy Machine No. 2 in a new red gold version with the blue dial for a mesmerizing visual depth.

When the MB &F legacy machine was initially launched in 2013, it featured 18k white gold with dark grey dial and 18 k rose gold with a silver dial. The fourth iteration of the MB &F Legacy Machine 2 was released in the year 2018 with white gold embodied in an unconventional purple dial. After six years of its original launch and after a year of its purple edition release, the manufacturers have come up with their stunning legacy machine No.2 in a red gold case with a striking blue dial.

It is available in an exclusive 12 piece limited edition and has all the features to become the most desirable of the entire LM2 series. Its stunning deep blue dial plate and its rich red gold case were obtained through a chemical vapour deposition technique.
