Franck Muller Watches
The genius of Franck Muller watches is in their movements. All the movements are mechanical, produced with either manual or self-winding mechanisms and are regulated to different temperatures and positions.
Franck Muller acquired patents for his innovations, along with the striking mechanism indicator which protects wearers of repeater watches from damaging their mechanisms: until the hand on the indicator dial is still, the wearer must not activate the striking mechanism again. The most inventive patent is that for the retrograde seconds complication. With this feature, the minutes can be followed with the sweep of a second hand on a graduated section on the dial. This unique display method's mechanical ingenuity is also evident when at the end of a minute, the indicator hand snaps back to its starting point.
Most who know of Franck Muller's watches also know of his precision and how it has led to 22 of what he terms "world premieres"- pieces which demonstrate feats and include elements never seen before in the history of watchmaking.
