Legacy Machine No.2 is deceptively simple: it offers only hours and minutes. But look closer, around its immaculate white subdial, and you’ll start to discern two fully independent escapements, each with its own flying balance wheel: yes, this is in fact an ultra-complex timepiece, one of the very few double-regulators on the market. Look closer still, and you might notice that each balance is beating independently… The secret? A sophisticated central planetary differential averages out the rates of both regulating systems, delivering a more constant result to the time display above.
The LM2 is widely misunderstood; it is a Machine for true watch lovers, geeks like us who appreciate its horological prowess. Its mechanical complexity commands a price in the same range as our perpetual calendars and chronographs, generally perceived as more complicated. The unsurprising consequence of all this is that – excepting the LM Thunderdome, our hyper-complicated triple axis tourbillon – the LM2 series is the rarest of our Legacy Machines.
Under the subtle aquamarine sunray dial traditionally paired with Palladium editions, you’ll find the amazing LM2 calibre conceived and designed by our Friends Jean-François Mojon and Kari Voutilainen.
