The LM Sequential EVO, conceived by the one-and-only Stephen McDonnell, was our first-ever chronograph – a ground-breaking dual chronograph that not only fixed the inherent flaws of conventional chronograph design, but also offered a combination of timing modes that was absolutely unique.
Widely recognised by professionals and collectors alike, it went on to win the most coveted prize in watchmaking, the GPHG “Aiguille d’Or” rewarding the best watch of 2022.
But this was apparently not enough for Stephen McDonnell. In his mind, that unprecedented combination of timing modes – independent, split-second, lap-timer and cumulative – was not quite complete without an additional option: Flyback mode.
Mission accomplished with the release of the LM Sequential Flyback Platinum, limited to 33 pieces. For those not familiar with flybacks, pressing the flyback button while the chronograph is running will stop the chronograph, return it to zero, and start it again, all in one go.
A single press of the button rather than fumbling through three separate clicks on two different buttons. A particularly practical function when you are dealing with successive predefined times, and you need to stop and restart the chronograph instantly – typically flight legs for aviators, for whom flybacks were originally created in the 1920s.
Stephen has not only added this extra functionality to the impressive capabilities of his Sequential calibre, but has also made sure it is executed in a perfectly efficient way, using patented jewelled rollers to ensure the flyback action runs smoothly.
In contrast to the 2022 launch editions that were executed in our sportier EVO case, this new LM Sequential Flyback Platinum adopts the more classic Legacy Machine style: domed dials in stretched white lacquer, blued hands, sky blue dial plate, platinum case with screwed lugs and a leather strap.
You’ll also notice that the hours and minutes dial has been tilted towards the wearer thanks to conical gears, offering more 3-dimensionality and legibility.
