The Franck Muller Grand Central Tourbillon is a spectacular collection, where the Tourbillon is in the spotlight, placed at the centre of the timepiece.
One of the complexities of the collection, lies in the fact that we had to totally rethink the watch in order to move the Tourbillon from its original position at 6 o’clock to the centre of the watch. In addition, Franck Muller designers and watchmakers had to find an innovative way to place the hour and minute hands around the Tourbillon cage, highlighting the beauty of the piece.
At the heart of this spectacular timepiece is a tourbillon positioned at the very center of the dial, an exceptional feat requiring a complete redesign of the movement and the hands, which now encircle the tourbillon cage.
Housed in the signature Curvex™ CX case and fully set by hand with baguette-cut stones, the watch captures and reflects light in a dazzling array of colours.
The Grand Central Tourbillon Rainbow is more than a watch, it’s a celebration of light, colour, and uncompromising craftsmanship.
