Vanguard Royal Bauxite

Named after the picturesque French village of Les Baux and the natural ore bauxite from which aluminium is extracted, the Vanguard Royal Bauxite combines innovation with technical expertise with a boldly coloured case made of an exclusive aluminium alloy. This extraordinary collection pays homage to aluminum’s rich heritage while showcasing Franck Muller's unwavering dedication to precision, style, and cutting-edge craftsmanship. Crafted from a special aluminium alloy which affords an exceptionally strong anodisation, allowing it to take on exceptionally vibrant colours, the Vanguard Royal Bauxite’s case and bridges are highly scratch-resistant, unlike other coloured anodised alloys. Vivid hues, being an inherent part of Franck Muller’s DNA, are the perfect aesthetic complement to the technically outstanding in-house MVT FM 1740-VS movement at the heart of the piece, a remarkable feat of engineering composed of 175 meticulously assembled components, and boasting an impressive seven-day power reserve. Passion and precision are evident in every detail on the movement, with each component finely bevelled and deliberately arranged to maximise visibility and celebrate mechanical artistry.
