Born in 1958 with a talent in watchmaking, Franck Muller has won numerous prizes and managed to amaze and innovate the Swiss avant-garde engineering by debuting his first wristwatches gifted with an intricate movement completely produced by him.
Apart from producing timepieces incorporating gracious, sturdiness or even delicacies, the creditworthy brand set out to creating sporty and trendy watches, which is witnessed by the unveil of the Franck Muller Chronograph Conquistador Grand Prix, a stunningly prominent and appealing watch inspired by the Formula 1 cars.
Measured at a size of 48.00 x 62.70 mm, the case is finished in ergal and titanium or Rose Gold and Titanium with splashing color contrast. Beating inside the Chronograph is the FM 7000 automatic movement with beautiful ornaments, including hand-chamfering, diamond polishing, circular graining, rhodium-plating and the Côtes de Genève motif. The flambé silvered dial is also quite distinguishable, gracious yet masculine with applied indexes, beautiful luminova relief numerals and orderly pattern.
