You can't wear it every day, but that's the pointIt is every bit as crazy as you thought it would beIt is the most complete horological machine from MB&F yetOver the past few months we've received feedback from readers inquiring just when it would be appropriate to don the HM4; does one wear it with a t-shirt and jeans, a suit and tie, or somewhere in between? Can you wear it everyday? The best analogy, borrowed from a friend who was viewing the rolex yachtmaster watch with us, is that the HM4 is like a Lamborghini Diablo. You can keep it in the garage, and when the right situation presents itself, take it out and instantly be the talk of the town. Are you going to use it as your daily commuter to the office? Not unless you're Batman, but the HM4 was not designed to be your daily wearer, it was designed push the limits of horological conception and fantasy. In our opinion, the HM4 is the most complete Horological Machine to date, and the best representation of Maximilian Büsser & Friends' ability to inspire.rolex yachtmaster watchbelow as Stephen Hallock walks us through the MB&F HM4 in the metal.
You've heard a lot about the Horological Machine No. 4 from Max Büsser & Friends. In fact, excluding the post you are currently reading, we've already written five posts about it, four of which were published before we even saw the damn thing. But some watches are special, and judging from the reaction the HM4 received on the day it was finally released, we think it's safe to say this watch is beyond special (we've never seen a watch featured on more websites in a span of 24 hour in our life).Last week we had the chance to sit down with MB&F USA President Stephen Hallock to go through the HM4 in the metal. He had with him the only HM4 currently in existence on this planet (we can't speak to what's on other planets). Our impressions are these:It's not as wide or as long as it looks in the picturesIt is actually not a very thick rolex yachtmaster watch, thicker than some, sure, but the pods taper very nicelyIt is far and away the easiest MB&F to readThe sapphire work on this piece is nothing short of incredible.
