It showcases the design elements easily recognized across a room as a Franck Muller, in a more modern looking interation: A tonneau curvex case, exploding numerals, and pronounced luminous hands that are perfectly visible in the dark. Ours features a classic silver dial.
Its Art Deco inspired design with a modern twist is perfectly adapted to the wrist of a discerning woman whose taste tends naturally towards simplicity, elegance and casualness.
Among the company's greatest design achievements are these Cintrée Curvex watches. Sophisticated and curvaceous, it features a curving three-dimensional case based on the discovery of a single spherical point at which the three axes of the watch's curves had to meet. The achievement of this creation is the curvature at 3 o'clock, 9 o'clock, 6 o'clock and 12 o'clock. Difficult to produce because of its many shaped components, it presents a perfect balance to the eye.
About the Casablanca, the company states: "One of the great Franck Muller classics - the Casablanca™: a true incarnation of a sober refinement, expressed in the most enchanting style of the 20th century. The Casablanca line celebrates a dynamic, contemporary and classic style. Its distinctive numerals, a symbol of the brand, allow perfect visibility and make it completely original. Its multi-colored dials perpetuate the artistic marriage of form and color."
Powering the watch is its orignal FM caliber handwound movement with small seconds. Unlike the lesser quartz versions, which are the compose the majority of the Casablanca line for women, this watch uses a mechanical movement designed to last a lifetime.
Using traditional watchmaking practices, these gifted craftsmen poured individual attention into each wristwatch. As a result, ladies Franck Muller wristwatches with mechanical movements are often more sought after by collectors than their quartz counterparts.
