Collectors prioritize this reference for its bespoke movement developed by Jean-François Mojon and Kari Voutilainen, featuring a 14mm suspended balance wheel oscillating above dual independent white lacquer dials. The 44mm case houses a manual-wind caliber with a 45-hour power reserve and a vertical power reserve indicator. As the first round-cased timepiece from a brand previously defined by avant-garde shapes, it represents a pivotal shift in MB&F’s design history. On the secondary market, the LM1 red gold typically trades between $65,000 and $85,000. A notable Final Edition was released in 2017, limited to 18 pieces in stainless steel, marking the definitive end of the LM1 production run.", "score": 198}, {"slug": "mb-f-lm101-legacy-machine-white-gold", "brand": "MB&F", "ref": "LM101", "model": "Legacy Machine 101", "case_material": "18k White Gold", "url": "https://mostexpensivewatches.net/reference/mb-f-lm101-legacy-machine-white-gold", "description": "The MB&F Legacy Machine 101 (LM101) in 18k white gold was introduced in 2014 as the first model to feature a movement developed entirely in-house by the brand, with finishing specifications overseen by Kari Voutilainen. This reference measures 40mm in diameter, making it more wearable than the larger 44mm Legacy Machines. It features a suspended 14mm balance wheel above two white lacquer sub-dials displaying time and a 45-hour power reserve. While the original white gold production ran for several years, the model has largely transitioned to \"Evolution\" (EVO) editions, making the classic precious metal versions finite. On the secondary market, these pieces typically trade between $55,000 and $75,000 depending on condition and provenance. A notable 2021 \"Performance Art\" collaboration with H. Moser & Cie used the LM101 architecture, further cementing this specific caliber's importance within the brand’s historical catalog.", "score": 83}]}
