Lot Essay

James Thompson, or "Black Badger" as he is better known, is a Canadian accessory designer best known for his glow-in-the-dark rings. He achieves this effect thanks to the use of a luminescent material called AGT ULTRA, a material that emits a "passive glow" that can last up to 40 percent longer than SuperLuminova. However, it requires a very strong charge of light to get it glowing.

MB&F worked with Thompson to create a limited edition 3 x 18 pieces in grade 5 titanium and stainless steel, with lume in Radar Green, Phantom Blue, or Purple Reign (like the present timepiece) to create a special edition of the Horological Machine X (HMX) created to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the indie brand.
