Make it a festive season to remember by pampering yourself—or someone dear to you—with a precious and thoughtful Franck Muller watch
There is no better time to take stock and treat yourself and those you love to a well-deserved pat on the back. It is the Christmas season—made for moments of contemplation, celebration and, for many watch lovers, an opportunity to commemorate another year with a timepiece of style and significance.
Whether you are a technical watch aficionado, a fan of bold sports watches, a discerning collector who appreciates lavish stones and mechanical magnificence in equal measure—or all of these at once—make Franck Muller your port of call. Read on for our specially curated list of Christmas-worthy watches to suit your distinct tastes and personality.
For The Debonair Gentleman: Curvex CX
If you desire a classy dress watch that is imbued with presence, the Curvex CX is an impeccable choice. Encased in hand-polished 36mm by 53.1mm red gold with a choice of silver or blue dials, the Curvex CX will sit snugly on the wrist and slide effortlessly under the shirt cuff.
Brimming with character, the watch is a close sibling of Franck Muller’s iconic Cintrée Curvex collection. Sharing a similar silhouette with a tonneau profile softened by three-dimensional curves, the Curvex CX features several subtle but significant differences. These include a curved sapphire case that extends all the way to the bracelet, a slimmer case and a recessed bezel to grant the dial greater visibility.
Speaking of the dial, Franck Muller’s artisans have crafted a gorgeous work of art; decorated with a guilloche pattern featuring tiny, spiral pyramidal shapes. Leonardo da Vinci once said that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. And Franck Muller’s deceptively austere yet elegant Curvex CX demonstrates this to perfection.
For The Glamorous Lady: Vanguard Lady Jewel Asia Exclusive
It doesn’t matter how you like them—riotous or refined—but Christmas parties are back. To get you primed for these long-awaited soirees, we recommend that you check out the Vanguard Lady Jewel Asia Exclusive.
These watches are sensual, high-octane and lots of fun. As the name suggests, the Vanguard Lady Jewel Asia Exclusive is carpeted with precious stones.
The case, crafted in rose or stainless steel, is set with 278 brilliant-cut diamonds and 22 sapphires. Echoing the unabashed resplendence, the dial boasts 67 brilliant-cut diamonds and 92 sapphires. Driven by a high-performance automatic movement with 38-hour power reserve and accentuated by hand-painted applique numerals, the watch is a sight to behold and a trusty accessory to elevate your wardrobe on that big night out.
For The Weekend Warrior: Vanguard Beach
Spending the holidays in this part of the world? Franck Muller invites you to enjoy the festive season with lots of sunshine and cheer. And what is the best watch to accompany you on your tropical escapade? The appropriately named Vanguard Beach.
The collection comprises a trio of flamboyant timepieces clad in fiery red, ocean blue, and summer green. With curvaceous cases crafted from feather-light glass fibre composite, these watches combine bold design with exceptional wearability. The lug-less construction ensures a snug fit, while the wave-like texture of the case—achieved through a meticulous process of heating, dyeing, and compression—adds a unique tactile allure.
Beneath the watches’ dynamic exterior lies a robust automatic movement boasting 42 hours of power reserve. Fun, fuss-free, and ready for adventure, the Vanguard Beach is your ultimate seaside companion during your sunny Christmas vacation.
For The Complication Connoisseur: Vanguard Revolution 3 Skeleton Sapphire
This is probably a watch that you’d buy just for yourself. The Vanguard Revolution 3 Skeleton Sapphire comes with incredible lineage—it is the latest iteration of the Revolution 3 multi-axis tourbillon watch that Franck Muller released to acclaim in 2004.
A trailblazing complication that continues to astound today, the Revolution 3 spearheaded the movement for progressive tourbillon watches at that time. Where regular tourbillon cages rotate on one axis, the Revolution 3 features a globular tourbillon cage that rotates on three different axes and at different speeds—completing three different revolutions in 1, 8 and 60 minutes—for optimum precision.
Almost 20 years on, the mind-blowing complication makes a return in a futuristic Vanguard model. Encased in fully transparent sapphire, the watch offers the owner full visual access to its movement’s inner workings—an intelligent and state-of-the-art mechanical workhorse with a 10-day power reserve. If you are a technical watch aficionado, consider the Vanguard Revolution 3 Skeleton Sapphire a treat for yourself this Christmas.
