MB&F Horological Machine No 2 ‘Only Watch’
Sometimes a watch can move you – not only with its beauty, but also with the idea behind the timepiece. One of the watches that certainly moved me in both ways, is the Horological Machine No.2 by Maximilian Büsser and Friends (MB&F). Each year,http://www.atimes.co/ the Only Watch auction event is held in Monaco. The goal of Only Watch is to draw attention (and financial resources) to the fight against Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
This is a serious illness (genetic disorder) that affects children (boys only) and reveals itself by progressive weakening of muscles. Unfortunately, there is no cure yet, and eventually this illness will result in cardiac problems that will become fatal.
http://www.replicawatchreport.co aimed to be the best store selling Luxury brands AAA replica watches which offer fake watch from replica breitling bentley gmt,replica breitling watches,hublot,panerai,excellent replica Tag heuer,rolex,omega etc...
Many watch brands have donated Only Watch editions — mostly unique pieces — to have them auctioned for this cause. In 2009, MB&F made a special version of its Horological Machine No.2 for the Only Watch event. As shown in the photo below, the movement is surrounded by 3D “barbed wire,” which symbolizes the illness trapping the child’s body. The butterfly represents innocence and hope, and as you can see on the picture the blue butterfly has one of its wings clipped, because, unfortunately, there is not yet a cure for children suffering from DMD.
