The MB wristwatches company was founded by the talented designer and watchmaker Mikael Bourgeois in 2008. From 1999 he worked in many prestigious Swiss watchmaking companies. Passion for drawing already appeared in his childhood and just that foreordained his further destiny. After ten years of working in the watchmaking industry, Mikael decided to create his own watch company as his outstanding creative potential required to be unleashed. His goal was to create original inimitable timepieces. Just that defined the brand's main “policy”: to make watches to order. MB gives its clients a unique possibility to realize their boldest creative imagination in a future accessory.

Especially for exacting lovers of the watchmaking art the company presented exclusive watch line called 7 sins that is being launched to an advance order only. The line consists of seven models de luxe. The numeral is not chosen by chance: seven models symbolize seven deadly sins – pride, lust, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony and envy.
At will of a client a model can be decorated with precious stones and additionally engraved. Material and colour of a watch can be also chosen by a client.
