Franck Muller Cintree Curvex

Overall Condition: Great condition overall. Case is in great condition and appears to be unpolished. Dial and handset are in excellent condition. Factory strap and pin buckle show only light wear.

Franck Muller is a brand that doesn't get a lot of attention in today's steel sport watch-centric consumer mindset.

And we think that's a damn shame.

Muller the man and Muller the brand have brought a lot to the world of modern horology, and his colorful, mid-1990s/early-2000s tonneau-shaped dress watch collection perfectly exhibits a design language that walks a fine line between classical and whimsical.

This particular piece, a Reference 2852 S6, lives up to that reputation, yet by FM standards, is on the restrained side of things...

Dating to circa the late 1990s, it features a beautiful 18K gold Tonneau case with a curved sapphire crystal, a signed crown, and a stunning silver guilloche dial with printed stylized-Arabic indices and a matching 'kite' handset.

This piece is powered by a mechanical movement and comes fitted to a crisp alligator strap with a matching pin buckle.

Despite their under-the-radar profile, Franck Muller timepieces are still some of the best in the world of dressy complications, and this wildly fun piece is no exception. These watches have the quality of being decidedly different than anything else available on the market.
