Maximilian Büsser & Friends (MB&F) has looked to the lagoon for its latest inspiration. The MB&F Frog watch boasts two sapphire crystal domes (that indicate hours and minutes) that protrude from the face of the striking timepiece, giving it a distinctly amphibian aura.
The MB&F Frog watch also boasts a massive date wheel, a titanium case, white gold screws and an engraved arrow to read the date. Only 32 of these limited edition watches will be made available to the public. Twelve of these will be a black titanium version with a green/gold rotor, and 20 a titanium version with a blue/gold rotor.
