One of the newest creations from MB&F - easily one of the most innovative brands on the market - is the Horological Machine No 6 (HM6) Alien Nation. The HM6 Alien Nation is a series of four unique watches that are space-inspired. Marking a world-first for aliens in a watch, each timepiece actually features six extra-terrestrials carved in 18K gold by artisan Olivier Kuhn. In addition to the five placed around the movement that are visible through the entirely transparent sapphire case, the sixth alien is the pilot and he can be seen manning the bridge atop the movement. Adding cosmic glow to complete the theme, each of the four watches is finished with a mixture of Super-LumiNova and AGT Ultra by Black Badger, and glow in the dark in one of four colors: blue, green, turquoise, purple. $500,000 Where to buy A collector snapped up all four pieces, but its innovation can't be denied.
