Introduced in 2015 to celebrate MB&F's 10th anniversary, Melchior was developed in collaboration with renowned Swiss clockmaker L'Epée. Melchior is not just a table clock; it's a mechanical marvel composed of 480 components. The clock features jumping hours and sweeping minutes displayed on discs on its chest, while a power reserve indicator is located on its abdomen. It also boasts an impressive 40-day power reserve, thanks to five mainspring barrels. One of Melchior's standout features is its design, which includes a gatling gun on its left arm that doubles as the winding and time-setting key. The retrograde seconds are displayed through flyback discs behind a steel mask, giving the robot a touch of personality. The current lot, in like new condition, is a testament to MB&F's innovative spirit, blending traditional watchmaking techniques with a futuristic, whimsical design. It's a must-have for collectors who appreciate both fine craftsmanship and a childhood spirit.
