Franck Muller Vanguard Watches
Franck Muller Vanguard watches are ahead of the curve in every sense of the word. With its captivating design, the Vanguard takes on a sporty appearance while retaining the brand’s renowned elegance. Available in men’s and women’s versions, a pre-owned Franck Muller Vanguard watch makes for a prized timepiece in any collection.
The History of Franck Muller Vanguard Watches
Despite being a relatively new brand in the world of luxury timepieces (when compared to other popular luxury watchmakers), Franck Muller has quickly made a name for itself, becoming one of the most highly respected watch companies to date. The owners, Franck Muller himself and his business partner Vartan Sirmakes, are well known for their unique approach to watchmaking, and the Vanguard models are no exception to this rule.
One of the first things you will notice about Vanguards is that there are no visible lugs to keep the strap in place. Instead, the strap is expertly integrated into the case to enhance the curved nature of the watch. Another feature that makes this watch so unique is that each numeral is polished, brushed and applied by hand.
A Franck Muller Vanguard Classical is the most traditional model, and comes in a range of different metals from titanium to rose gold.
The success of the Classical has led to further innovations in the Vanguard line. Proud of the working mechanism in each watch, the Vanguard Skeleton and Vanguard Gravity provide the wearer with an unobstructed view of the inner workings of the timepiece.
The Skeleton design has also become a widely regarded feature of many other Franck Muller Vanguard watches. The Master Banker and Yachting Anchor lines can be sourced with full, clear views of the Muller’s internal handiwork.
Traditionally Untraditional
As you would expect from a Franck Muller timepiece, Vanguards are big, bold and beautiful. While you can find more muted examples, bright colours and eye-catching dials are very much a key trait of Franck Muller Vanguard watches.
Color Dreams versions are available in both the men’s and women’s models. Numerals and straps also come in a wide range of colours including deep blues, bold reds, vibrant oranges and striking greens.
For the most traditionally untraditional Vanguard timepiece, cast your eyes over the Crazy Hours example, where the numerals are seemingly in random order, and yet the correct time is always on show.
A Vanguard For All Tastes
Franck Muller has succeeded as a modern luxury watch company because style and innovation are at the heart of all of their timepieces. The Vanguard alone comes in nine different models, and each model comes in a variety of materials and complications.
There is a Vanguard for all tastes. Whether you prefer to admire the inner mechanisms of a Vanguard Skeleton, or you wish to wear the sporty and nautical Vanguard Yachting, you’re bound to find a pre-owned Franck Muller Vanguard watch that suits your style to the letter.
