When it comes to luxury and craftsmanship, the Franck Muller V45 Blue Yacht truly sets sail on a league of its own. With a meticulous design process that lasted over ten months, this watch isn’t just an accessory; it’s an experience.
The watch case is engineered with a challenging sandwich structure. Made entirely from 316L stainless steel, it boasts a blue side slot and protruding blue ears—a feat that required countless prototypes to perfect. Unlike those using low-cost plastic molds, this one is the real deal!
The dial features numerals that are 1:1 replicas of the original, complete with recessed edges filled with oil, making it a high-cost, complex production. Beneath lies a magnifying spacer layer, while the date window features sapphire magnification for a touch of finesse. Talk about attention to detail!
Instead of the thicker, less stable domestic 7753 movement, this watch goes for a more reliable Seagull 7750 movement. This ensures uniform thickness with the original, allowing interchangeable parts and easier calendar adjustments with the crown.
The diamond-studded buckle is a masterpiece of replication, offering the same fit and convenience as the original V45 full diamond edition. Meanwhile, the plain case version comes with a folding clasp that matches the original style seamlessly.
With bent hands perfectly aligned to the dial and a high-arched glass hugging the curved case design, this watch demands the expertise of the finest watchmakers. From the rubber strap that’s as soft and comfortable as the original to its flawless color match, this is a watch that leaves no stone unturned. Take a closer look at the V45 Blue Yacht and prepare to be amazed!
