Franck Muller has once again turned the world of luxury watches on its head with their latest masterpiece: the Grand Central Tourbillon. At the heart of this timepiece is the revolutionary ‘Central Tourbillon,’ a feature that cleverly places the tourbillon front and center, making it the visual star of the show.

The Cintrée Curvex case has undergone a stylish makeover, now boasting slender and flowing lines. The case, crafted from carbon fiber, extends subtly at both ends of the watch glass, merging seamlessly into the lugs. The intricate black and gray stripes of the carbon fiber case create a stunning, abstract aesthetic that exudes both charm and elegance.

The lacquered dial is adorned with oversized Arabic numerals, while a striking guilloché pattern spirals outward, echoing the rotation of the central tourbillon. With the tourbillon taking center stage, the watch’s gear train had to be reimagined—the hands are ingeniously mounted on the edge of the tourbillon, appearing to float gracefully above the dial.

Powering this marvel is the in-house FM CX 40T-CTR automatic movement, beating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and offering an impressive four-day power reserve. The watch is paired with a fluoro rubber tailored nylon strap and features a newly designed brushed fold-over clasp.

For those who appreciate watchmaking innovation and artistic design, the Franck Muller Grand Central Tourbillon is a must-see. It’s not just a watch; it’s a conversation starter and a testament to the art of horology.
