Not sure if everyone has seen this yet, it was evidently just unveiled. The MB&F HM4 Thunderbolt !..Here are some of the specifications for it: 65 component case with grade 5 titanium and sapphire, 54mm wide x 52mm long x 24mm high. 50 jewel 311 component manual winding movement, with two mainspring barrels in parralel, 72 hour power reserve, 21,600 bph. Functions include hours and minutes (right dial), power reserve (left dial). Separate crowns for setting time, along with winding. Five sapphire crystals..2 for dials, 1 central case, 2 for dispay panels. Calfskin strap, hand stitched with titanium, and white gold custom deployment buckle, along with articulated lugs.
Here are the websites that this info came from, along with somes photos, and a video ! Enjoy !
They say it was designed after the A-10 warthog...if that is the case, it means that it is super slow...
I worked on (loaded) A-10s for 16 years...great plane!!
Pretty cool !..Right guys ?! Alot of aviation, and some sci-fi in there too ! Your welcome Poli, and everyone ! Glad you liked this one !!!!..MB&F really knows how to make some out of this world watches !..Thanks again !!!
..Mark, that must have been something seeing the A-10's up close and personal like that every day by the way ! Amazing sir !
thanks for posting! haha! Aviation inspired...over 50mm wide....3-D wrist presence....very Sci-Fi... and of course totally toolish looking......Brought to mind Predator and his cool wrist thingee... Of course the X-33 is the coolest real world aviator watch IMO, but that Thunderbolt creation is wonderful!
