LM1 is a MB&F Legacy Machine 1 reference.
The case is 44mm stainless steel.
It runs a manual movement.
Catalogued dial colour: brown / champagne.
MB&F's first round case (44mm x 16mm), with two fully independent time displays on raised subdials flanking a central balance wheel visible from above, plus a vertical power-reserve indicator. The movement, jointly developed with Kari Voutilainen and Jean-François Mojon, was the first caliber outside Voutilainen's own watches to carry his name; 279 components, 23 jewels, 45-hour power reserve at 18,000 vph. This record documents the stainless-steel Final Edition, an 18-piece run introduced in 2017 with a dark chocolate-brown dial and CVD-blackened bridges — earlier LM1 runs used other materials, so no single production-start year is given here.
Before you ask.

How do I check a MB&F LM1 with Watch Safe?
Look up the watch's serial number in the Watch Safe registry to see whether a record exists or a theft flag is attached. A registry search identifies records for a specific serial; it does not authenticate the watch. Authentication is performed in person by an independent expert authenticator, and Watch Safe records and publishes the result.
