Franck Muller Watches Are Of Unique Design

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 creations merge a sense of modernization and traditional Swiss styles.

The first collection of Franck Muller watches was created in 1984 when he designed the Tourbillion wristwatch.

The Tourbillion watch movement was first used in pocket watches to help solve the problem related to the forces of gravity.

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

Another Franck Muller creation of note is the Curvex Tonneau, which is readily recognizable on any wrist.

To compliment the Tonneau and the Tourbillion, Muller has created several signature models including the Chronograph, Crazy Hours and the Master Banker.

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

Each of these timepieces possesses a feature that existed never before in any watch.

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. - 15438
