MB&F Legacy Machine No. 2 LM2 Watch Review

Ariel Adams of aBlogtoWatch reviews the MB&F Legacy Machine No. 2 (LM2) watch with dual balance wheels.
Legacy Machines all have constructed clocks and watches with two balances. Sapphire crystal cupola, gold chatons, mirror-polished bevels and bridges showcase the LM2's fine finishing.
Centuries after three of the world's greatest watchmakers put two balance wheels into their movements, the LM2 was created.

What a magnificent manual wind watch! The movement is great to look at. Unfortunately not a daily wearer with such a tall curved sapphire crystal but what the heck! I'd try it anyway :)

Asad - since when did the price of luxury watches ever bear any relationship to the cost of production??

I meant original chinese brand mechanical watches not some replica. people really need to stop giving head to swiss watch companies and realize that they are too overpriced compared to many other countries. and yes china can make quality watches at a very low price. heck they made a tourbillion for a few hundred dollar something the swiss just manage to make atleast $40-50k

This looks like a fancier version of the Chinese mechanical watches. This watch doesn't look to be more than 20k in labor and parts. The rest is all markup

Interesting, but I really don't like the bulbous crystal.

when you buy a swiss watch, you buy hundreds of years of history. you don't spend 200k$ because you think it looks beautifull. You may love the way the manufacture has devloped trough years and what they are about in the present and the future. I would buy a JLC reverso even if I don't think it looks that great but just because I love the story behind it and it's part of watch history.

I had this watch before I liked it. Then one sunny afternoon around Christmas time. I was at the mall and some hot female elves who worked for Santa in the mall chase me down because they love the watch so much because it looked like a snow globe. They made me have mad crazy sex reindeer style and bore my offspring. They took the watch to pay for the child support i owed.
