MB&F Brings Kinetic Art By Bob Potts To Its M.A.D. Gallery In Geneva
Watches, especially the high-end, more animated ones are often referred to as "kinetic art." This time, however, with the aid of?MB&F,? we are taking a step away from timepieces to appreciate the beautifully animated statues of an American gentleman called Bob Potts. We have long known the so-called M.A.D. Gallery of MB&F to feature?exceptional artists, working in greatly different fields from building unique motorcycles to amazing guitars. And while each of those were astonishing in their own right, we feel the moving hand-crafted objects of Potts are what make our horologically inclined hearts beat faster; so let's take a closer?look at some of the pieces that will be on display at the Gallery until October.[vimeo 93151146 w=730 h=411]As Bob puts it: "My work is the manifestation of ideas that come to me from the natural world."

On a Vintage roll!
I had some time this afternoon so I shot a few pics of the futuristic automatic we call the Jetson's watch. I think it's from the mid 60's but I haven't had it opened to be sure. It's NOS so the pink wax is still on the back around the ballet dancer symbol, which makes it tough to see if the date code is stamped there as it normally is. This is one funky watch!I thought a few of you would get a kick out of this one.
