MB&F Horological Machine 2 (HM2) – Final Editions 59mm

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 59 mm case suggests

MB&F Horological Machine 2 (HM2) – Final Editions 59mm measures 38 mm lug-to-lug on a 59 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 0.64 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 94% of the 8,093 watches in this database and shorter than 97% of the 32 MB&F watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 43 mm (1.69 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 51 mm (2.01 in) it starts to look compact. Below 38 mm (1.50 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 13 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 64% of the watches with a listed thickness.
