Deep Space On Your Desk: MB&F Starfleet Machine

Starfleet Machine by MB&F is a very functional piece of fantasy for your desk.

Your desk? Well, yes, silly. You see, following Musicmachine, this is the second non-watch machine for MB&F, though this one actually does tell you the time.

Beside being a fantasy machine, it is also a table clock built with the wonderful skills of historic Swiss clockmaker, L’Epée 1839.

With Starfleet Machine MB&F shows us yet again why the brand is inspired by science fiction and the race to the stars, because it is simply fantastible!

The shape of the Starfleet Machine alone is enough to inspire wonder in those who view it, but when you peer into the depths of the exposed works and start to notice the details; a whole new appreciation begins to form. So let’s take a look at it.

MB&F & L'Epée 1839 - Starfleet Machine, a Table Top Watch

Unveiled at Basel World, the meeting for watch enthusiast, the Starfleet Machine By MB&F is a table top watch. Imagined by Max Büsser & Friends and engineered by L'Epée 1839, this artifact of time offer a dome in the middle of the structure where rotating hands read the hour and minutes tracks while “turret-mounted laser cannons” read the seconds. Near the Radar stands a smaller dome displaying a 40-day reserve. The Starfleet Machine is limited to only 175 pieces in 2 editions, light or dark, and are priced for "only" 28,000 CHF which is not so expensive for this piece of craftsmanship.

We’re seen some tremendous timepieces from the folks at MB&F and here’s the latest, their Starfleet Machine table clock. Engineered by L’Epée 1839, Switzerland’s older high-end clock manufacture, this Star Trek-inspired clock is executed perfectly. Taking shape after the DS9 space station from the sci-fi franchise, the Starfleet Machine is suspended within a steel c-shaped ring and held up by 3 supporting arcs. The highly visible, superlatively finished in-house movement delivers a power reserve of 40 days while showing off MB&F’s continued push to further innovation in watchmaking while still holding true to classic ethos of the industry. The hours and minutes are indicated on the central black dome by hand-polished hands that follow the dome’s curved contours. Look beyond this and you’ll see a smaller rotating dome, accompanied by a revolving radar dish that helps you keep an eye on remaining power reserve. Five bars shows the movement’s fully wound while one bar means Starfleet Machine is running low with eight days of remaining power.

MB&F’s Starfleet Machine is limited to 175 pieces and is available in ‘light’ or ‘dark’ editions, the latter with ruthenium-finished components. For more info, head over to Hodinkee.
