This just arrived after a two year wait and I do not have time to “savor” it yet. The case size is 44mm which sounds large but definitely does not wear like a 44mm watch. I would say it feels even smaller than a ROO 42 diver or the 41.5 VC OS on rubber strap.

The finishing is superb. It is with better anglage and interior angles than the other two LMs I own. Definitely one which you need the loupe to enjoy.

I am waiting for a special occasion for its maiden voyage

Uh this is such a masterpiece! Huge congrats!

Which other LMs do you own?

Thank you!

I have a LM101 Steel and a LM2 in palladium. Both are classic/dress so I am glad that I have a sports model now

Congratulations!!! Such an amazing piece!!

Amazing piece! One of my favorite MB&Fs! I’m interested to hear what use cases you find for the sequential chrono function as you wear it.

BTW, I was explaining all the different timing modes to my wife. And she said: "When will you use any of them?"

Huge congrats! I was really surprised and impressed with the finishing on the Sequential, really nice and combined with the mechanical innovation such a complete package. My favorite detail might be the lumed pr hand, not sure it would ever get any lumed time given it's on the back but I like the consistency :)

rajurama · 24 October 2024, 06:52 AM

Wow mesmerizing! Worth the wait!

Carguy87 · 27 October 2024, 08:44 AM

Wow congrats!! Seems to be well worth the long wait!

raclaims · 27 October 2024, 09:06 AM

Congrats makes me want to go grab mine it’s been a while - it’s a real art piece and the engineering is insane. Enjoy it!!

I actually completely forgot that the PR is lumed but you reminded me to charge it up with the UV torch.

It would have been shorter but I made some other purchases so I told my AD to skip me and let the next in line to have it first. But did not expect a two year wait.

You should! It is indeed a real mix of art and microengineering.
