Watches By Franck Muller

By Sakuragicho

Franck Muller is the famous timepiece creator from Switzerland who is often cited as the Master of Complications.

He is known for creating complex and innovative timepieces.

His offerings bring together conventional Swiss styling along with a breath of fresh, modern design.

The Tourbillion timepiece was the first creation of Muller, released to the public in 1984.

The Tourbillion is a mechanism which was originally used in pocket watches to negate the effect of gravity.

This problem was resolved by placing the escapement within a rotating frame.

Another creation from Muller is the Curvex Tonneau, which features a unique case design that is instantly recognizable.

Apart from the Tourbillion and the Curvex Tonneau, collection of watches from Frank Muller include: Long Island, Casablanca, chronograph, Color Dreams, and the Conquistador Cortez King.

Muller continues to bring innovation to the watch world with his World Premiers collection that is released each year.

These watches are well recieved as they are known to possess a feature or technology that is unique to Franck Muller.

If I had to pick only one Franck Muller watch as a favorite, it would have to be the Long Island Crazy Hours, featuring an interesting and complicated display of time that doesn't appear chronological.

Franck Muller has created many more remarkable models such as: Perpetual Calendar Tourbillion, Grande Sonnerie, Retrogrande second and Power Reserve which is also known for their unrivaled artistry and craftsmanship.

If you are considering purchasing a high-end, fashion timepiece, then you need look no further than those offered by the Master of Complications, Franck Muller. - 15366
