Cornelius & Cie, founded in 2007 by worldfamous watch engraver Kees Engelbarts and jeweler Paul Pertijs, will introduce its first formal collection this year. Taking its name from Kees Engelbart's Christian name "Cornelius", the young brand will offer exceptionally small series of exclusive replica watches , each featuring vintage movements that are entirely handengraved by Engelbarts himself. Extensive personalization options will be offered. The first Cornelius & Cie watch, available from April 2008, is the Chronosome 46XY. Presented within a classically styled, subtly asymmetric 49mm case, this Cornelius & Cie watch collection will feature vintage manual wind Anton Schild Caliber 690 movements from 1935, which offer a power reserve of 8 days. The movements are plated with gold or rhodium, elaborately skeletonized and engraved individually by Mr. Engelbarts. Production will be limited to approximately 100 pieces for 2008, and a threeyear warranty accompanies each watch. More information can be obtained at the Cornelius & Cie website: On June 2nd, the haute horlogerie agency of MB&F (Maximilian Busser & Friends) will reveal a unique example of its Horological Machine No 2 watch created in conjunction with Californiabased artist Sage Vaughn. The timepiece, developed with watchmaker JeanMarc Wiederrecht and hosting a number of unusual complications including a dualhemisphere moonphase, instantaneous jump hour, and concentric retrograde minutes will be sold in September 2009 as part of the "Only Watch" charity auction in Monaco, Proceeds obtained from it and other featured timepieces directly benefit research for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, a genetic disorder particularly prevalent in boys marked by progressive muscular degeneration and, eventually, death in the afflicted. Sage Vaughn is known for solo shows which have been extremely well received by critics and the public. As a developing artist in Los Angeles, Sage worked on graffiti murals which developed into striking works on canvas. Beating a sevenyear long heroin addiction is a personal victory which has lent great emotional power to the artist's workand the empathy for the struggles undergone by a young child suffering from muscular dystrophy. MB&F is delighted with the result achieved in its special edition HM2 watch, which captures the complex and difficult emotions associated with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Flyreplica will publish addition information, following the release of the watch. Click here to visit the MB&F website.
