May I know the list price of steel 101 in US and in Europe? Is it CHF 52000? Thanks.

Amazing watch! Enjoy it.

How does the crystal feel, is it thick feeling or are you really careful moving your arm?

I purchased this from my European AD so it is 52000CHF excluding VAT.

The dome on the LM101 is not tall at all so I am not conscious about it. I did try on a LMX, it may be more of an issue since it’s dome is significantly taller.

The watch case itself is quite thin for what it is. Also, since sapphire is scratch resistant so it should work out better than other thick watches like a Royal Oak Offshore. (My ROO steel bezel is dinged here and there) The bezel
Is also concave so it will probably be less prone to dents too. Unless you hit it against a hard surface and shatter the crystal, I think this actually may be better than most watches.

Hope not, I just got confirmation a couple of weeks ago that I'm on the waitlist for the blue dial (multi year wait)

I was told by my AD and another AD that they no longer take order. But no word on discontinuation.

I hope not as this is the most accessible piece from MB&F and should help to introduce the brand to more people.

Thanks!! I was and am super excited about this piece. When it was first announced back in May 2021, I contacted my AD and was told that he was not sure if I can get an allocation but I have decided to stay with him instead of ordering from a MAD Gallery. And it paid off as I got the text in November that he was able to secure an allocation for me for Q1 2022 delivery. It arrived a little late but I am fine with it.

My first MB&F piece and definitely will not be the last.
