Product description

A marvel of modern horology and technical artistry, the Franck Muller Vanguard Skeleton Sapphire tourbillon is a bold statement in innovation, craftsmanship, and transparency. Housed in a fully polished sapphire crystal case, this extraordinary timepiece reveals its mechanical soul in breathtaking detail, offering a 360-degree view of Franck Muller's renowned skeleton tourbillon movement.

Meticulously crafted from a single block of sapphire, the case is not only visually striking but also extremely complex to produce—requiring over 100 hours of precision machining and finishing. The tonneau-shaped case allows for optimal light refraction, turning every angle of the watch into a play of brilliance and shadow.

Inside, the manual-winding skeleton movement is suspended in space, its architectural bridges and gear train fully visible from every side. The rose gold components add a bold contrast, emphasizing the technical depth and modern aesthetic. Franck Muller's expert hand-finishing is on full display, with polished bevels, brushed finishes, and flawless symmetry defining the openworked design.

Paired with a hand-sewn alligator strap, this timepiece is not just a watch—it’s a showcase of haute horology, suspended in crystal clarity. With its futuristic transparency and timeless mechanical complexity, the Franck Muller Vanguard Skeleton Sapphire redefines what a luxury watch can be—bold, pure, and utterly captivating.
