Introducing the MB&F Legacy Machine Perpetual EVO
Aside from the material used, the watch design in itself has also been updated for a more progressive appearance. Take for instance that the domed, bulbous sapphire crystal, it now goes from edge-to-edge on the case of the EVO, sans bezel. Don’t take for granted that this was an easy feat, and it’s not that MB&F just glued the crystal onto case. A thermal bonding process has been used to ensure that the glass and Zirconium of the case are secured to one another, providing ease of mind for regular wear and water resistance of up to 80 meters.
Then we have these protruding pushers for adjustment of the calendar functions of the EVO. In previous LM Perpetuals you would’ve seen these as small round pushers made to sit flush with the surface of the case, which therein requires a pusher pin to manipulate. The new protruding pushers make sure that you are able to adjust the watch no matter where you are, without having to carry the specific pusher pin.
Various fortification and ease of use aside, of course, what’s use to catch the eye first is the dynamic colors used for the EVO. These are applied to the dial plate by means of Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) for the orange and blue, and Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) for the black. The black on the subdials is achieved by means of a galvanic treatment with the etched numerals further treated with Super-LumiNova.
The everyday-friendly, LM Perpetual EVO will be limited to 15 pieces in each variation.
