Franck Muller Cintrée Curvex Color Dreams

Overall Condition: Excellent condition overall. Case shows only faint signs of wear associated with gentle use and handling. Dial and handset are in equally, excellent condition.

In the world of haute horlogerie, where time is not just measured, but celebrated, Franck Muller stands as an overlooked luminary.

Established in 1991, the brand's vision was clear: to create timepieces that transcend the mundane, leaning on expressions of individuality and above all, elevating timekeeping to an art form.

Franck Muller is renowned for its vibrant and visually captivating dials. The Color Dreams collection, for instance, showcases an array of bright hues, with each dial resembling a miniature canvas where said colors dance harmoniously. Each watch exudes an avant garde design language that balances the classical and the whimsical, bringing a much-needed, playful approach to modern horology.

This particular Franck Muller Cintrée Curvex Reference 1750 S6, dating to the early 2000s, is a standout example of the firm's adaption of its signature silhouette to ladies' wrists. Measuring 25mm x 35mm in a white gold tonneau case, it features a curved sapphire crystal, a signed crown, and an absolutely wild, deep blue guilloche dial with stylized 'shadow' indices, multi-colored, stylized 'Arabic' indices, a feuillie handset, and a sub-seconds display above 6 o'clock. Powered by a hand-wound and highly decorated version of the ETA/Peseux Calibre 7001, it comes fitted to one of our Saffiano leather straps with a signed white gold pin buckle.

Though the brand's early-2000s heyday may have passed, its wares from that era remain incredibly compelling — not to mention excellent bargains. For someone on the hunt for a fun and funky everyday watch, this Reference 1750 S6 presents the perfect option.
