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;

You can decide whether to answer or decline a call. All this while keeping your smartphone silent in your pocket.<br /><br />• Call by entering the number or by using the address book: to make a call, all you need to do is enter a number or touch a name. As simple as that. And you can do it just about anywhere: simply touch a name in your address book.<br /><br />• Use speakerphone: that’s going hands free. For example, avoid distractions while driving.<br /><br />• Receive text messages with preview: from today, reading a text message is as easy as checking the time.<br /><br />• Receive emails showing the sender and the subject: your emails straight on your i'm Watch: sender and subject are sufficient to understand importance of the email and therefore decide whether to read it immediately or later on your smartphone.<br /><br />• Check the weather forecast of your city: you are updated in real time and wherever you go. Under any circumstance, weather forecast for the next hours is useful.<br /><br />• Receive notifications from Facebook™, Twitter™, Foursquare™, etc.: i'm Watch is more social than you can even imagine. Keep in touch with the world.<br /><br />• Download all the music you want from i’music: and then listen to it whenever. What about incoming calls? Music is paused when i’mWatch rings and to answer just click the button on your headphones.<br /><br />• Download apps from i’m store: each downloaded app offers new functions to your i'm Watch, making it more and more fun and capable of doing extraordinary things.<br /><br />• View the photo and image gallery: on i'mWatch your photos sparkle and shine in all their splendour. With a touch you can enlarge them and with another restore them to their original size. Just swipe the display and you can slide through unforgettable moments and instants.

Like the complete movement, this unique and complex mechanical system, which allows the time to be displayed on the side, has been entirely designed and created in the workshops of the Fleurier manufacture (VMF).<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirFAEVJYICX-ygc-fDlrehHfaGtaQAQ2aHJnzlmQ4d049B_Sj-04EoA9HYNeGCKCoIhoiUZlzCCG28GHz3RND5TcYQgKigreZGC2zWg17XVmVCwHdhSBOsnKad_midnKG3r1HfRwBHOCU/s1600/parmigiani_fleurier_bugatti_super_sport_wristwatch_5.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5590381642516270146" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirFAEVJYICX-ygc-fDlrehHfaGtaQAQ2aHJnzlmQ4d049B_Sj-04EoA9HYNeGCKCoIhoiUZlzCCG28GHz3RND5TcYQgKigreZGC2zWg17XVmVCwHdhSBOsnKad_midnKG3r1HfRwBHOCU/s400/parmigiani_fleurier_bugatti_super_sport_wristwatch_5.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 530px; height: 364px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9agz_EJ54IUga0UVjf4Dw5Pdkf1_bHQQiiu8v0k6SSw5TETtuge9IS36P2IQzdafanbz0JwCma_eHTcEbLoI7AkUOvQOAfc3IBhXiOfRnVAT6q4SsfD0Mewbbn0JCgqCx2o8S8ajLoRQ/s1600/parmabug.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5590383255045538370" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9agz_EJ54IUga0UVjf4Dw5Pdkf1_bHQQiiu8v0k6SSw5TETtuge9IS36P2IQzdafanbz0JwCma_eHTcEbLoI7AkUOvQOAfc3IBhXiOfRnVAT6q4SsfD0Mewbbn0JCgqCx2o8S8ajLoRQ/s400/parmabug.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 528px; height: 491px;" /></a><br /><br />Another key feature of the new Bugatti: its dynamometric crown. Perfectly integrated just above the profile, this is one of the essential technical components in terms of the harmony of the model's aerodynamic lines. 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.
