RADICAL PAIRING

The MB&F x Bvlgari Legacy Machine Flyingt Allegra is the love child of two horological powerhouses known for their bodacious styles. The flamboyant creation embodies the technical prowess of both maisons on two fronts – jewellery-making and mechanical audacity. Showcasing MB&F’S forte in volumes and complexity, as well as Bvlgari’s radically graphic aesthetic, it was only logical to revisit the former’s Legacy Machine Flyingt. This iteration of MB&F’S first ladies’ timepiece features a slightly larger 39mm by 20mm case entirely redesigned by Bvlgari for a futuristic yet opulent profile. Fully paved with snow-set diamonds, the dial provides a glittery backdrop to candy-coloured gems that juxtapose the model’s mechanical complexity with Bvlgari’s exuberant touch. Still retaining a high-domed sapphire crystal case, vertically built movement, flying tourbillon, and a striking hours and minutes dial set at a 50-degree angle, the watch is available in limited quantities of 20 pieces in each version of white or rose gold (pictured). Set with over three carats of dazzling diamonds on its case, dial, crown and buckle, this model flaunts two tsavorites, two tourmalines, an oval tanzanite, a pear-shaped amethyst and round rubellite totalling more than 2.5 carats. An alligator leather strap in auspicious deep pink completes the watch.
