MB&F has launched a new version of the jellyfish-style HM7 Aquapod.MB&F Horological Machine N7 aquapod red sapphire, Made from platinum, this new watch is the most precious metal with striking new tones - as well as three-dimensional "floating" hours and minutes.
The HM7 Aquapod Platinum Red comes from the deepest part of the ocean of timepieces, the free-floating digital appendages and the unprecedented transparency of the heart that beats it: the 60-second flying tourbillon.
Unlike previous versions of Aquapod, which represent hours and minutes through a rotating ring with a transfer number, the HM7 Platinum Red uses titanium-engraved three-dimensional numbers. Metals are specially chosen for their lightness in order to minimize the extra marginal load on the engine. However, this mechanical advantage comes at a price because titanium is denser and stronger than the aluminum index of the previous Aquapod version.HUBLOT MP-11 POWER RESERVE 14 DAYS SAPPHIRE 911.JX.0102.RW
The rods that connect the hour and minute numbers to their respective mounting rings are painted black in DLC (diamond-like carbon), completing the ethereal floating effect associated with the drifting jellyfish.
The HM7 Platinum Red replaces the previous Aquapod version of the Tomahawk tourbillon bridge with a transparent sapphire component. The flying tourbillon of the HM7 engine is displayed in an unprecedented way, with the aura of high-brightness AGT as the highlight.
In addition to the AGT ring surrounding the flying tourbillon, the luminescent material can be found on the surface of the laser engraved markings and hour and minute numbers of the unidirectional rotating bezel. These are uncolored Super-LumiNovas that emit white light when exposed to light.www.bestluxurysale.com
The HM7 Platinum Red is self-winding and the 391 component engine is fully developed in-house by MB&F. The HM7 Platinum Red comes with a platinum case, bezel and clasp, limited to 25 pieces, each with three interchangeable belts (red, white and black) made of aircraft grade rubber.
