Red gold with Chocolate PVD coated titanium in a limited edition of 10 pieces</span><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mbandf.com/">MB&F</a> presents Horological Machine N°3 Frog. Haute horlogerie is (usually) a very restrained and serious business; however one of Maximilian Büsser main goals in creating MB&F was to bring a child's sense of awe and sense of playfulness into high-end watchmaking. There is no doubt that with the HM3 Frog, MB&F have certainly achieved that goal.<br /><br />The protruding eyes of the (amphibian) frog enable it to see in many directions without having to turn its head. The bulbous domes of the HM3 Frog have the opposite, but no less important, feature of enabling the time to be easily seen from many angles without having to turn the wrist. The Frog differs substantially from HM3 in that it is the aluminum domes that rotate under the sapphire crystals in the Frog, whereas it is the hour and minute hands that rotate around their respective stationary cones on HM3.<br /><br />The HM3 Frog is available in Grade 5 titanium with blued rotor, a limited edition of 10 in chocolate PVD-coated grade 5 titanium with red gold rotor, or a limited edition of 18 in black PVD-coated zirconium with purple rotor:<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim0qeaooIVkWaUzFy3HJWBYFGMXHLCi2sIYwLvLNWCGECPyawJXmMPudVcr1B3m0A2dvKq2hDEU2eHeWtrbjaRrqA5RvYy73vtKYoGIsPUQQCTllNzy9UXz0TVCVBrcOS7mppzq9iyX18/s1600/HM3_FROGS+copy.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631186897693262002" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim0qeaooIVkWaUzFy3HJWBYFGMXHLCi2sIYwLvLNWCGECPyawJXmMPudVcr1B3m0A2dvKq2hDEU2eHeWtrbjaRrqA5RvYy73vtKYoGIsPUQQCTllNzy9UXz0TVCVBrcOS7mppzq9iyX18/s400/HM3_FROGS+copy.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 537px; height: 410px;" /></a><br /><br />Rotating domes of this size and shape posed MB&F with a number of technical challenges. The hour and minute domes are machined from solid aluminium - chosen for its optimal strength to weight ratio. The domes weigh in at just over 0.5g. They are milled first from the outside and then the inside to arrive at a paper-thin wall thickness of just 0.28 mm, which reduces their energy requirements to an absolute minimum.<br /><br />Even the fabrication of the semi-spherical sapphire crystal domes was incredibly demanding and only recently even possible at all. This is due to the fact that any slight imperfection in the sapphire might introduce a disconcerting magnification effect. The sapphire has to be shaped and polished to be perfectly uniform.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3NKq6e-2hyYNhyVdV6E41K9-E21J5ty4DFx6aE0em7bO2DCqK5oBBHKPBOWBAUBHXZsQyYbr3E1mAQmCI26BePlmdTqkxENJtgT9z61sBI6-bYv4puFtla7aMY_ZZ0EGjw_iXTEIUdUM/s1600/HM3_FROG_CHOCOLAT_ENGINE1.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631188132084981442" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3NKq6e-2hyYNhyVdV6E41K9-E21J5ty4DFx6aE0em7bO2DCqK5oBBHKPBOWBAUBHXZsQyYbr3E1mAQmCI26BePlmdTqkxENJtgT9z61sBI6-bYv4puFtla7aMY_ZZ0EGjw_iXTEIUdUM/s400/HM3_FROG_CHOCOLAT_ENGINE1.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 539px; height: 367px;" /></a></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><br />The Frog's unusual method of indicating time necessitated the development of a new gear train for the HM3 engine. This was because the aluminum hour dome of the Frog rotates in 12 hours compared to the 24 hour revolution of the HM3 hour hand. And as the oversized date wheel is driven from the hours, the gearing driving the date had to be reworked as well.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNlwwNwpepZduCQ_RBo1ffCUmEVOO2P0TGdr2VkLmogThh-KNqKEF7NXiM0-UMGvPiPfeA65oISdp_LRoIUUvVhfE_4Z2da4YC7wr3tMZBe8ERPmoH5Y1I_7j8HRcD_sPJPir-W57vGiA/s1600/HM3_FROG_CHOCOLAT_ENGINE.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5631188427975009250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNlwwNwpepZduCQ_RBo1ffCUmEVOO2P0TGdr2VkLmogThh-KNqKEF7NXiM0-UMGvPiPfeA65oISdp_LRoIUUvVhfE_4Z2da4YC7wr3tMZBe8ERPmoH5Y1I_7j8HRcD_sPJPir-W57vGiA/s400/HM3_FROG_CHOCOLAT_ENGINE.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 540px; height: 367px;" /></a></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><br />The Frog may portray the time in a playful manner, but there is nothing but serious and meticulous attention to detail and care regarding the fine hand-finishing of the high-tuned engine purring within its lightweight high-tech titanium or zirconium case.<br /><br />A close inspection of the case is rewarded with carefully thought out detailing including a figure 8 engraved around the domes that mirrors the form of the display back(revealing dual ceramic bearings); distinctive clover-head white gold screws; and an engraved arrow discreetly indicating the easy to read over-sized date.<br /><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTjAvwa07Djil4s_z9ogsn7GpWxLiWRJcAxyzP3HZ149bc3amrVjMWcl0KeD9uAbEBG7huvVCMpYaGZbVo_u68M2Y3XNduTeUJomDalNV9Plp33o39H-0-MaPa7aRWxjgEgyVYSo8Rcc4/s1600/MBF-Purple-Frog-1.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634610404789177586" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTjAvwa07Djil4s_z9ogsn7GpWxLiWRJcAxyzP3HZ149bc3amrVjMWcl0KeD9uAbEBG7huvVCMpYaGZbVo_u68M2Y3XNduTeUJomDalNV9Plp33o39H-0-MaPa7aRWxjgEgyVYSo8Rcc4/s400/MBF-Purple-Frog-1.jpg" style="cursor: pointer;

The Opus concept was based on the idea of creating an exceptional timepiece each year in partnership with a gifted independent horologist. The partners work together as equals and collaborate to produce innovative and groundbreaking luxury watches.<br /><br />I don't know why but some have spelled out numbers, other use an Arabic numeral and still others use a Roman Numeral to designate the edition, so in my post I will do the same.

To retract the winding stem from its housing and make it accessible for setting, a slight pressure is sufficient.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlEBXSoBIG_H2i7QIVz4_3hLvgNjWDnS2HVTAvxd8nW3XP3UpzB73zMbkmaXEJwn7FDF_dyo46H3ceXmrpIHIOAmnsD3theY2Xlvjx7Dy-Qtr16Ig8pXzdXFlsyjS5ZpujQBF-EcVvti8/s1600/Parmigiani-Bugatti-Super-Sport-watch-61.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5590382018022472770" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlEBXSoBIG_H2i7QIVz4_3hLvgNjWDnS2HVTAvxd8nW3XP3UpzB73zMbkmaXEJwn7FDF_dyo46H3ceXmrpIHIOAmnsD3theY2Xlvjx7Dy-Qtr16Ig8pXzdXFlsyjS5ZpujQBF-EcVvti8/s400/Parmigiani-Bugatti-Super-Sport-watch-61.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 523px; height: 752px;" /></a><br /><br />The manually wound Calibre Parmigiani 372 (power reserve of 10 days) was designed in two planes in order to match the contours of the new Bugatti watch. On the wrist, the watch movement is displayed at an angle of 30°. On the upside, the balance and escape wheel bridges form an arc reminiscent of the Bugatti oval. The screw balance, produced at atokalpa – the Parmigiani manufacture's bar turning facility – is perfectly visible, just like the central circular power reserve bridge with a 10-day graduated scale.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTeWuf-a2rd7xWsmNJxxr3APdJD5MzESZROgA9kKzRLThOST404OdiOWNILqf4iicjuDh6bJjRWjHcV-pgsvux9qNdQ5ZgnjRFeyeuWV69E3ggpEwFcIg5DZBlVqjIGWrqUTjySveIOss/s1600/10_0823_Parmigiani_Bugatti131.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5590383702134987650" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTeWuf-a2rd7xWsmNJxxr3APdJD5MzESZROgA9kKzRLThOST404OdiOWNILqf4iicjuDh6bJjRWjHcV-pgsvux9qNdQ5ZgnjRFeyeuWV69E3ggpEwFcIg5DZBlVqjIGWrqUTjySveIOss/s400/10_0823_Parmigiani_Bugatti131.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 525px; height: 350px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTpe8rPhvCbvPIEgMBrP7OYbeDRWhxM36Suk7oUsCykxhq6kZwmMIgvposWjkl3cUrwxlEuV1aP8FtVNkRMTfcZV4jPwgDAz9-CiMTfjZxj24uFYZq4r6Uvxzkq-U2rIhjmyT6kJ4o0es/s1600/Parmigiani-Bugatti-Super-Sport-watch-31.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5590383525024953714" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTpe8rPhvCbvPIEgMBrP7OYbeDRWhxM36Suk7oUsCykxhq6kZwmMIgvposWjkl3cUrwxlEuV1aP8FtVNkRMTfcZV4jPwgDAz9-CiMTfjZxj24uFYZq4r6Uvxzkq-U2rIhjmyT6kJ4o0es/s400/Parmigiani-Bugatti-Super-Sport-watch-31.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 526px; height: 483px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUF6pxOq52U9iloME2qNGLUf0Mg10tAGMJqS8rdy2DE1TIIrUGg0jX0NV88Tyrbcm99B_tFF6C5U1SjfOJx9u6NlkdW3kmhh7q0WMC9I8AkMUXpLu6c4oeWNfXLu_TkdJJCmHLfQMHjqw/s1600/Parmigiani-Bugatti-Super-Sport-Watch-3.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5590382330313711586" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUF6pxOq52U9iloME2qNGLUf0Mg10tAGMJqS8rdy2DE1TIIrUGg0jX0NV88Tyrbcm99B_tFF6C5U1SjfOJx9u6NlkdW3kmhh7q0WMC9I8AkMUXpLu6c4oeWNfXLu_TkdJJCmHLfQMHjqw/s400/Parmigiani-Bugatti-Super-Sport-Watch-3.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 527px; height: 267px;" /></a><br /><br />Striking aesthetic characteristics, the train wheels are once again cut in the form of car wheels, the plate and its 10 bridges, designed and decorated in line with Parmigiani's exclusive criteria, adopt the pillar system already used on the Calibre 370. A total of six sapphire crystals reveal the 337 impressive components of the new Bugatti Super Sport, which is water resistant to 10 metres. The carbon fibre hour wheel can be seen through the dial's openworked centre, and is an homage to the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport. The hands, applique indexes and counter are picked out in the same shade of orange used on the limited edition "world record" Veyron.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGcbuCca2YogdNzBCzw9QRf_n6_EwecMB2v9Pp-OhtgmRitsI_EVXvn5_utGLGLCR5HK69uLTaQzrFYoJG3NhzxkbcC9NEifCYuOEZREhcl53Vh6bZbdzZ77f4DXNhSVw5aulz3D7DgoQ/s1600/bugatti-parmigiani-super-sport-watch-type-372-5.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5590381443760883650" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGcbuCca2YogdNzBCzw9QRf_n6_EwecMB2v9Pp-OhtgmRitsI_EVXvn5_utGLGLCR5HK69uLTaQzrFYoJG3NhzxkbcC9NEifCYuOEZREhcl53Vh6bZbdzZ77f4DXNhSVw5aulz3D7DgoQ/s400/bugatti-parmigiani-super-sport-watch-type-372-5.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 534px; height: 355px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXgpGIBiPSF6tI_VD9hn9ra8vwpWxgGvYmTXXYOX5qfr3l4kFjy5VrenX0wm-oHtqSJtnjIV7VKfbu3V8uwNKQ24vwtxcZL9f1NyyqvOQzdOcCuc8RICNqL0I25n-bKJ907tdF5-jpfH4/s1600/bugatti-parmigiani-super-sport-watch-type-372-6.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5590381304479065330" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXgpGIBiPSF6tI_VD9hn9ra8vwpWxgGvYmTXXYOX5qfr3l4kFjy5VrenX0wm-oHtqSJtnjIV7VKfbu3V8uwNKQ24vwtxcZL9f1NyyqvOQzdOcCuc8RICNqL0I25n-bKJ907tdF5-jpfH4/s400/bugatti-parmigiani-super-sport-watch-type-372-6.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 535px; height: 355px;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">above: Bugatti Veyron Super Sport. © Bugatti</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">The profile, signature of the Parmigiani style</span><br />The highly tapered profile of the Bugatti Super Sport recalls the body of a wing, however the inspiration for the design lies in the iconic shape of the case lugs on a Parmigiani watch. Boasting the brand's characteristic curves the new Bugatti represents the decisive signature of the Parmigiani style.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgA_KuTn_lxJ5tVCSNBt1OT9KH-AGz9KneJv_1U6SAP-pFHs6tyZsPJevS8wZrq9gISY6kHAh1xoFKddfC_RegsQ6HGmui3HmlEYxyGTIF9L9nQcFaf8-3swnnuiF38BO7MRoDDt9NYyRk/s1600/parmigiani-fleurier-bugatti-veyron-super-sport-watch_100319621_m.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5590381132310804306" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgA_KuTn_lxJ5tVCSNBt1OT9KH-AGz9KneJv_1U6SAP-pFHs6tyZsPJevS8wZrq9gISY6kHAh1xoFKddfC_RegsQ6HGmui3HmlEYxyGTIF9L9nQcFaf8-3swnnuiF38BO7MRoDDt9NYyRk/s400/parmigiani-fleurier-bugatti-veyron-super-sport-watch_100319621_m.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 524px; height: 345px;" /></a><br /><br />Highly ergonomic on the wrist, the Bugatti Super Sport offers even greater comfort thanks to the two removable lugs incorporated at the front of the watch. Of a complexity rare in watchmaking, the design of the new Bugatti's 18 ct white gold case – created by Les Artisans Boîtiers, the Parmigiani manufacture's case production facility – reproduces the taut lines of the Bugatti Veyron's wings. Brushed or polished, inclined planes and bevels are brought to life by contrasting light effects to reveal its generous volumes. The watch's aerodynamic curves, which are reminiscent of those on the 1200 bhp Bugatti Veyron, are matched with an integral Hermès strap specially created for the occasion.<br /><br />Parmigiani CEO Jean-Marc Jacot expressed delight that his company was able to produce this watch, and produce it quickly. He explained that in the fall of 2009 Bugatti approached him with the news the car company would have something very special to unveil at the Concours d’Elegance in 2010. The idea was for Parmigiani to also have something to show there in tandem. At the time, the watch was nothing more than a concept; to meet the challenge, he put more than forty of the manufacturer’s designers and engineers on the project full-time. “We have a lot to prove with Parmigiani because we are so young,” said Jacot. “And with this watch, we have proven how creative we can be.”<br /><br />The Type 372, was officially released at the SIHH in January. Only thirty watches will be produced, each costing a retail price of $259,000. The first finished timepiece has already been reserved for the British executive who will be receiving the first Bugatti Super Sport car off the assembly line. When Jacot was asked if he thought the 1.6 million euros the man is paying for the Bugatti was enough to warrant receiving a free Parmigiani watch, he responded, “I wish I could, but this watch is too special to give away, even for 1.6 million euros.”<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">*based on an original idea by Bastien Leuba, a talented student at the Ecole d’Horlogerie in Le Locle.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Specs:</span><br />Model: Bugatti Super Sport, 30-piece special edition.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Movement</span><br />PF 372<br />Manual winding.<br />Power reserve 10 days.<br />Two-plane movement.

Is it a pocketphone- watch or a watch cell phone? It is above all a resolutely novel nomadic object that pushes the boundaries of imagination.<br /><br /><object height="323" width="530"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/rQzFriM-plU?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/rQzFriM-plU?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="323" width="530"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK-M7KVSiddrxc2rjPx5XonFTHS3qG92sL_IouEapGV7gUot4zTxkXG_ORQ39PnHI2_Vf9nRm9kyvPCS1eLDRQW0Nf2b69oah_ti8tcqIc_zAMt7nxnxL1cDl43SMt4Svf6Wpof5Vp7K9e/s1600/Celsius_X_VI_II_-_LeDIX_Origine_front.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551044006850261330" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK-M7KVSiddrxc2rjPx5XonFTHS3qG92sL_IouEapGV7gUot4zTxkXG_ORQ39PnHI2_Vf9nRm9kyvPCS1eLDRQW0Nf2b69oah_ti8tcqIc_zAMt7nxnxL1cDl43SMt4Svf6Wpof5Vp7K9e/s400/Celsius_X_VI_II_-_LeDIX_Origine_front.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 523px; height: 568px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTnB23LMmfluHev9-NU4KrvoLMh38YpIPExNTPFagFkg8N3zz_2dvPXN1hX9eLaa7j1fgWAjwLBQq5L2lyLOfCE5EmW07tQRZ0PAzx6F0DlyEe08U_WSHnacY-Ek1GXVP0pheTZznMLzso/s1600/Picture-29.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551063810588324674" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTnB23LMmfluHev9-NU4KrvoLMh38YpIPExNTPFagFkg8N3zz_2dvPXN1hX9eLaa7j1fgWAjwLBQq5L2lyLOfCE5EmW07tQRZ0PAzx6F0DlyEe08U_WSHnacY-Ek1GXVP0pheTZznMLzso/s400/Picture-29.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 526px; height: 478px;" /></a><br /><br />At first glance, LeDIX is a clamshell cell phone with an integrated tourbillion watch.

It comes from the patented winding system of its horological component. Housed within the hinge, this Remontage Papillon (Butterfly Winding) is activated with each opening, thereby adding three hours of power reserve to the total 100 hours – a major innovation that elevates this nomadic object to an extraordinary, fusional dimension.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs8dj1pumvNRpZ15VkPHCgZi1NQl_ahf5Q4xaej7VFOGSZ0BSGFbGl-S-ei6HkzRJx6bGqJmMedHKnyDmFFb9UvNRUTsrn51fwZt4DgBhWooXoa8rqy-9mvIivKjjtbiWZe-fO2M8OOw4t/s1600/Picture+13.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551044623773487666" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs8dj1pumvNRpZ15VkPHCgZi1NQl_ahf5Q4xaej7VFOGSZ0BSGFbGl-S-ei6HkzRJx6bGqJmMedHKnyDmFFb9UvNRUTsrn51fwZt4DgBhWooXoa8rqy-9mvIivKjjtbiWZe-fO2M8OOw4t/s400/Picture+13.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 527px; height: 449px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQum7qOn66GSDmg0HM9DaHu-05NDJMM6yqSXQsNV0fpRRZt1PmKIDgbgNp4TZiLKhMhSSc4xoCCcwiyTpq1IpSAJ2-XHVRC3Bc1X5V_8O6Fu-g5EotnDE9dGw3Wvqu1CxeiCLHBYfZiqCT/s1600/Celsius_X_VI_II_-_LeDIX_Origine_front_perspective.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551046313061204530" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQum7qOn66GSDmg0HM9DaHu-05NDJMM6yqSXQsNV0fpRRZt1PmKIDgbgNp4TZiLKhMhSSc4xoCCcwiyTpq1IpSAJ2-XHVRC3Bc1X5V_8O6Fu-g5EotnDE9dGw3Wvqu1CxeiCLHBYfZiqCT/s400/Celsius_X_VI_II_-_LeDIX_Origine_front_perspective.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 518px; height: 442px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_wJvQvxOko0wrYXf8FVA8U4VTIqXS9-89orinrUrABLJpeGLoTW9sLCsDDvB_bOIjwgQ-X5WwBr2ymTHNW3xMG_QX0BfNQC2O0jii98bjMb_b685tlHRLeSB4M81Bn8lXSOISaC6I3du0/s1600/Picture-23.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551053102623008722" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_wJvQvxOko0wrYXf8FVA8U4VTIqXS9-89orinrUrABLJpeGLoTW9sLCsDDvB_bOIjwgQ-X5WwBr2ymTHNW3xMG_QX0BfNQC2O0jii98bjMb_b685tlHRLeSB4M81Bn8lXSOISaC6I3du0/s400/Picture-23.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 524px; height: 344px;" /></a><br /><br />This state-of-the-art communication device comprises a range of features that take micromechanics well beyond its usual boundaries, including: a mechanical battery-ejection system; a main connector protected by a mechanical-locking flap; and screen-flap closing cushioned by a set of spring mounted ball bearings.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIIBEA2oUUR1K5sOBFiD1pAjowGzmnjlX03URjZqvjHmLETamvHtxnF3b0BQPGjafN9fnymIU9TkIuNkIUb7XvsLprPIEJtARJAMFVce68DEDW846BjLi48Ujl1ZRUalQ9RDaxj45HYVvF/s1600/Picture+17.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551045381632825522" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIIBEA2oUUR1K5sOBFiD1pAjowGzmnjlX03URjZqvjHmLETamvHtxnF3b0BQPGjafN9fnymIU9TkIuNkIUb7XvsLprPIEJtARJAMFVce68DEDW846BjLi48Ujl1ZRUalQ9RDaxj45HYVvF/s400/Picture+17.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 524px; height: 476px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL5MgXzKSg5RMvHJ2f0TeV4b2mBO-JkudZfIPH4_7VGXs6njlPyxi0YzK_r1o2ek2yhcvP9TEiEedxYDbTgxRL0F8mNEBx6qaPWEt_bYNOuDmybo26g6G6u_5QiupVX3ITyW4whFXSXU_O/s1600/Picture-21.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551052857808566066" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL5MgXzKSg5RMvHJ2f0TeV4b2mBO-JkudZfIPH4_7VGXs6njlPyxi0YzK_r1o2ek2yhcvP9TEiEedxYDbTgxRL0F8mNEBx6qaPWEt_bYNOuDmybo26g6G6u_5QiupVX3ITyW4whFXSXU_O/s400/Picture-21.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 528px; height: 448px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi07pF9QfJ-F6fiiIsxh95B4DHb1oNIaNs_1p90k9WOOn8Tyf86din30waMRQPBCCBqLwV4MEBXyYxlA8NEvwn-AInTHWP15MFo2BfmFthumhNMFAuJbMtxFN89SNBLl_O3mrLsWcZtY_kX/s1600/hinge+detail.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551047739971422690" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi07pF9QfJ-F6fiiIsxh95B4DHb1oNIaNs_1p90k9WOOn8Tyf86din30waMRQPBCCBqLwV4MEBXyYxlA8NEvwn-AInTHWP15MFo2BfmFthumhNMFAuJbMtxFN89SNBLl_O3mrLsWcZtY_kX/s400/hinge+detail.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 536px; height: 363px;" /></a><br /><br />The electronic communication platform combines high performance with extreme reliability.

Frustrated at losing the time display when he had to switch off his cellphone, he had the idea of adopting a mechanical solution inspired by watchmaking. Thomas soon produced some sketches and showed them to a childhood friend.<br /><br />Romaric André, who had just graduated from business school, proved an ideal partner thanks to his entrepreneurial mindset and a capacity to take the inherent risks. Both launched into the adventure with a confidence tinged with naïvety. Their early stages were more akin to an artistic approach than to a business start-up. They spent most of the time devising the mechanised cellphone of their dream, fine-tuning it in step with meetings they arranged with specialists from the various fields involved. Building on their youthful energy, their primary aim was to appeal to people rather than to prove the potential profitability of their scheme. At that time, Thomas was still in paid employment and so it was up to Romaric to handle the various administrative procedures. While some people were sceptical and funding the endeavour was no easy task, other encounters proved fruitful. Personal conviction enabled the pair to stand firm in the face of obstacles and to find means of bouncing back.<br /><br />Alejandro Ricart, a friend Romaric had met while studying at a university in the United States, was contacted during 2007, at one of the critical moments of the project in gestation. He joined the team, thus contributing the professional skills acquired in a Barcelona consulting company, as well as the fruit of an aristocratic family background. He was one of those who approved and even reinforced the decision to aim for a firmly prestigious, uncompromisingly top-quality product strategy.<br /><br />The team managed to attract the attention of an independent risk capital company which suggested that it should first and foremost broaden its field of competence. Edouard Meylan thus began the fourth member to join the adventure at the start of 2008. In addition to his family roots in the Swiss fine watch industry, he also brought with him a wealth of marketing and sales experience acquired in Asia with a distributor in this sector.<br /><br />The group thus formed features a particularly valuable range of complementary talents, further backed by the enthusiastic support of eminent figures that later became the Executive Board Advisors, including Hugues-Olivier Borès, a strategy and marketing consultant well known in watchmaking circles, as well as telecommunications expert Jean-Marie André. Finally, Richard Mille, won over by the youthful team’s determination to pursue absolute perfection, agreed to sit on the future company’s Board of Directors. This impressive set of human factors, along with the interest generated by the innovative nature of the project, finally convinced Sofinnova Partners to invest in Celsius X VI II. The support of this European leader in the financing of young tech companies is a well-deserved token of recognition of the multiple resources engaged in the venture. The good news of their backing was confirmed in mid-2008 and ever since, Thomas, Romaric, Alejandro, Edouard and their partners have been unswervingly and entirely committed to gradually giving shape to their dream of a micromechanical cellphone.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Celsius X VI II</span><br />18, rue du Faubourg du Temple<br />75011 Paris - France<br />tel +33 (0) 155 28 17 92<br /><a href="http://www.celsius-x-vi-ii.com/">www.Celsius-X-VI-II.com</a><br /><a href="mailto:contact@celsius-x-vi-ii.com">contact@celsius-x-vi-ii.com</a><br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">via </span><a href="http://www.notcot.org/" style="font-style: italic;">NOTCOT</a><span style="font-style: italic;">, images and info via </span><a href="http://www.celsius-x-vi-ii.com/" style="font-style: italic;">Celsius X VI II</a></span>
