We start with Franck Muller’s headliner of the year, the Vanguard Aero Revolution 3 Skeleton. An imposing creation in rose gold that stands at the apex of Franck Muller’s technical watchmaking, the timepiece lays bare its mechanical marvels through a fully skeletonised movement viewable from all angles.
The MVT FM 2031-SMR-VS-NR movement appears to float weightlessly within the sapphire cage, suspended by a series of thin gold bridges, and running on an exposed system of gears and wheels that recall kinetic sculpture. At six o’clock, an open-worked tri-axial tourbillon rotates with mystery and elegance—the watch’s mechanical heartbeat held within three cages, each turning at its own speed and on its own axis.
The tourbillon’s mechanical ballet not only captivates the wearer but serves to enhance precision. Yet, the Vanguard Aero Revolution 3 Skeleton is no delicate ornament. Besides delivering theatrical drama and exemplary timekeeping, the high-performance hand-wound movement is equipped with two barrels offering 10 days of power reserve. Truly, a creation of outstanding technical and aesthetic distinction.

Franck Muller has a knack for expressing artisanship through complex mechanical engineering, and the Round Triple Mystery Skeleton is a fine example of that quality. The latest addition to a family of watches that dispenses with conventional hands, the Round Triple Mystery Skeleton employs a system of three independent rotating discs to indicate the hours, minutes, and seconds—resulting in captivating display that exudes poetry and drama in equal measure.
Of the new Round Triple Mystery models unveiled this year, the Round Triple Mystery Skeleton, encased in rose or white gold, intrigues us most. Featuring an open-worked design, the rotating discs are crafted in a lattice pattern, offering tantalising glimpses into the MVD 2800-TMY movement. The intricate craftsmanship is further heightened by a bezel and lugs set with 120 brilliant-cut diamonds, lending brilliance to a work of mechanical artistry.

The Cintrée Curvex collection has always worn its Art Deco influences proudly. With the Cintrée Curvex Gatsby, Franck Muller ventures deeper with the association. Here, the brand lavishes the watch with geometric beauty and bold lines commonly associated with the 1920s art movement—and by extension the world of champagne-fuelled soirees, riverside leisure, and impeccably dressed men and women of the time immortalised in the novel The Great Gastby.
That inspiration is rendered most vividly on the dial. The Cintrée Curvex collection’s signature Art Deco-inspired numerals are redesigned with greater presence—the painted numerals imbue the Cintrée Curvex Gatsby with a strong visual identity that feels at once historical and contemporary. Beneath them lies a stamped guilloché dial finished with 25 layers of lacquer, its sun-pattern texture adding depth to the composition. The case, crafted in rose gold or stainless steel, takes the collection’s iconic tonneau silhouette, and sets it with 64 brilliant-cut diamonds totalling 1.04 carats.

The Long Island Evolution was one of Franck Muller’s most surprising remakes. Relaunched in 2024—almost two decades after the debut of the original Long Island collection—the redesigned Long Island Evolution models exuded a more assertive spirit, bulked up with larger dimensions and technical attributes, and brandishing open-worked dials for a sportier and more contemporary disposition.
This year’s Long Island Evolution Master Jumper Skeleton builds on the foundation with an offering housed in a brushed titanium case with rose gold bezel. Compared to the 2024 model —also clad in black titanium but with neon-green accents—the new iteration radiates an almost stately quality. That aside, the watch remains as visually and mechanically commanding. The in-house MVT FM 3100-L features a triple-jumping complication in which hours, minutes, and date are each displayed via instantaneously jumping discs— delivered via a dual-barrel architecture that ensures consistent torque throughout the movement’s 30-hour power reserve.

It is customary for Franck Muller to surprise us with an unexpected artist collaboration each year. And just as it was with tie-ups featuring French contemporary artist Jisbar and Japanese streetwear label #FR2, the latest partnership with multidisciplinary maximalist collage artist Kelly Dabbah yields irreverent watches that push the creative boundaries of both parties.
Dabbah’s work melds fine art, fashion, and gemology. The collaboration’s technical distinction lies in the sublimation process used to render her imagery onto the dials—eco-friendly inks bonded to the pre-lacquered surface under heat and pressure, producing a high-definition image embedded in the material with a permanence conventional printing cannot replicate. Three models are available. The Vanguard Candy Mint comes in fibreglass or diamond-set rose gold, its dial animated by a tiger’s gaze through Dabbah’s collage dreamscape. The Vanguard Electric Feel, for men, takes a cooler approach in an electric blue aluminium alloy case with a carbon dial.
