The creators have gone back to basics for the new version of the LM FlyingT model.

 

This novelty reinterprets the first "3D" watch for her by Maximilian Büsser. Its creators introduced the first version with a black lacquer dial and a cut-through window of overlapping circles. It revealed a manufacture movement graced with an imposing flying tourbillon, rising up in the center. 

 

A small subdial for the hour and minute hands "leaned" against this construction, tilted to an angle so that it could only be seen by the owner wearing the watch. This technical splendor was housed in a white-gold case that was blanketed in diamonds. The femininity of this piece of haute horlogerie for her was accentuated by a rounded silhouette.

The model has since been presented with a number of different looks. Watches with dials made of lapis lazuli, malachite, tiger's eye, and "Cœur de Rubis" (anyolite) have appeared each year from 2020.

 

This trend continues with the LM FlyingT for 2024, which has a black onyx dial close to the original model from 2019. But there's no excessive bling here, which makes this unisex watch a good fit for men's wristwear too.

 

A black dial paired with a classic yellow-gold case — this is an accessory that can complete anyone's look. Moreover, at 38.5 mm in diameter, it can be worn by every fan of complicated watch mechanics.

The case is 20 mm thick — the necessary height to display the beauty of the flying tourbillon. We still have the inclined dial tilted at a 50° angle. In order to make the hands rotate with the dial in this position, conical gears are used in the movement to ensure the torque will be delivered from one plane to another.

 

The same approach can be seen in the HM6 and HM9 Flow models. The movement comprising 280 components has a 100-hour power reserve provided by a rotor in the shape of a sun with rays radiating out of it. Adjustments are made using two crowns: one on the left for winding and one on the right for setting the time.
