History

Frank A shocking gem that showed its existence to the world as Muller's tourbillon. A completely new construction, a tourbillon with a jumping hour function. Regulator with hour and minute hands The type dial is also unique. With this complication as the driving force, he would go on to release countless world firsts.

Frank Müller's famous tourbillon is integrated with the minute repeater, a similarly highly technical complication, in perfect harmony. Empire movement parts Decorated in the style (Imperial style), it can be seen through the skeletonized dial. It took two years to design and contains hundreds of parts.

A complication model that combines two high-level complications: a tourbillon, which requires amazingly difficult technology, and a minute repeater and perpetual calendar (perpetual calendar). It took two years of research and development, required hundreds of parts, and only one model was produced.

A tourbillon is a special mechanism that can compensate for inaccuracies caused by the effects of the earth's gravity. This epoch-making system developed to stabilize the error due to this attitude difference is the split-second The accuracy of chronograph measurement was further improved. It took 16 months to design, hundreds of parts were used, and it was a one-of-a-kind model.

A double face watch with a dial on both the front and back. On the front side of the dial, while using the usual hour, minute, and second hands, the names of cities around the world engraved on the bezel and the rotating bezel allow you to know the time in the second time zone. The dial is equipped with a pulse meter. A model that brings a new concept to how to read the time.

A one-of-a-kind epoch-making wristwatch that remains in the history of Grand Complication. The hour function is a grand sonnerie and petite sonnerie that sounds at regular intervals, and a minute repeater that sounds the current time in 1 hour, 15 minute, and 1 minute increments. The perpetual calendar function is programmed to the year 2100, with date and day of the week, retrograde 12-month names and equation of time for each month, leap year cycle, 24-hour display, moon phase, and even temperature inside the watch. The highly complex movement is the Empire, machined from a block of 950 platinum. Housed in an imperial style case. Frank Until Müller worked, there was no wristwatch with such a complicated mechanism. In addition, the movement included a tourbillon in 1995, a chronograph with 60-minute counter in 1998, and a power reserve for the minute repeater. Indicators, power reserve for movement An indicator has been added.

Frank Müller has added a number of mechanisms to the complication watches with traditional mechanisms. it's a split second Chronograph, minute repeater with hour, quarter and minute increments, date and day of the week, perpetual calendar with retrograde names for 12 months and equation of time for each month, leap year cycle, 24 It is a mechanism that displays the time, moon phase, and even the temperature inside the watch.

Frank Müller's outstanding idea has evolved the minute repeater mechanism even further. That is, I devised a mechanism to display the operating status of the repeater with an indicator. Since the retrograde needle on the dial moves so that the operation of the repeater function can be seen at a glance, it is possible to prevent erroneous operation. Currently, the mechanics of this indicator functionality is Frank Patented and registered in the name of Müller.

Minute repeater with repeater activation indicator, perpetual calendar with retrograde 12-month names and equation of time for each month, flanks Equipped with a wide range of complications such as a tourbillon patented by Müller, a retrograde second hand, and an internal temperature indicator. Moreover, it is produced in a surprisingly compact size and housed in a case carved from a block of platinum 950. More than three years have been spent on research and development.

Retrograde perpetual calendar with monthly equation of time TourbillonFrank on the most complicated mechanism of a tourbillon watch Combining two Muller patented mechanisms, the ground complication. What's more, this watch has Frank Not only is Müller's talent as a watchmaker brilliantly integrated, but his aesthetic sensibility for beauty brings together three complex functions in a sophisticated design.

Caliber 95 Frank Müller patented tourbillon, split seconds Chronograph, central hour hand, minute hand, second hand, date and day of the week, perpetual calendar with retrograde 12-month names and equation of time for each month, leap year cycle, 24-hour display, moon phase, internal thermometer display and many other features. Moreover, the dial has a double face, and a watch with a completely different expression appears on the opposite side. A masterpiece that creates two expressions in one wristwatch, only one was produced.

The world's first epoch-making model with a minute repeater on both sides of a double-faced wristwatch. It has a function that can display two time zones on the front and back of the double face, and is also equipped with an independent minute repeater that reproduces the time in the city or region chosen by the enthusiast with beautiful tones. , hours, quarters and minutes.

A sword and a beautiful bridge that can be seen from the opening. This tourbillon Frank at a glance thanks to the carriage Imperial that can be understood as a work of Müller It's a tourbillon. Revisiting the model introduced in 1995, it became the first non-round case wristwatch to combine a tourbillon with a patented minute repeater with working indicator.

This one-of-a-kind watch incorporates a grand and petite sonnerie, a minute repeater and a perpetual calendar. The Grande Sonnerie and Petite Sonnerie are built into the minute repeater, a mechanism that announces the fixed time in 1-hour and 15-minute increments with a clear chime sound. Among the techniques for manufacturing complex mechanisms, the highest level of technical skills and knowledge is required.

Frank As you know, Müller has a track record of researching, developing and mastering numerous complications. Minute repeater, perpetual calendar and monopusher all in one watch Split-seconds chronograph, double face Aggregate chronograph. The world's first model was born, named after the conquistador, the conqueror and conqueror.

This year, Franck Muller launched the world's smallest tourbillon with a diameter of 19.15 mm. Succeeded in developing the movement. Tourbillon It set a world record for the miniaturization of a movement. This movement is built into the heart of a jeweled watch whose entire egg-like shape is set with diamonds. The hours and minutes can be read through the glass on the top of the egg.

Only one of these complete double face watches was produced. One dial is entirely paved with diamonds, has no hands, and displays the time via a single rotating disc. The other dial features a flank A roulette wheel based on Muller's original idea and mechanism is arranged. Complications at the highest level also incorporate grande and petite sonnerie and minute repeater functions.

A perfect double face watch made in platinum, only one made. One dial incorporates a mechanism called the Double Mystery, which is currently registered as a patent. This is the first time that the hours and minutes are indicated by two rotating discs without hands. This complex movement also incorporates grande and petite sonnerie as well as minute repeater and perpetual calendar functions.

Frank this year Müller is a complete double face made in one piece with all retrograde displays. The watch is presented for the first time. One dial shows the hours, minutes and seconds, while the other shows the day and date in retrograde style. The complex movement incorporates grande and petite sonnerie, minute repeater and perpetual calendar.

Frank With this watch, Müller is the first to display the seconds with two retrograde hands. The first second hand indicates 0 to 30 seconds and the second second hand indicates 30 to 60 seconds.

Tourbillon The Revolution is a mechanical watch enthusiast's dream watch. Tourbillon by pressing a button Gauge is sapphire You can get up close to the crystal windshield and see its details. Tourbillon by the owner himself It is an epoch-making wristwatch that allows you to freely handle gauges with a single button.

Tourbillon The Revolution 2 is a complex system and artful expression that completely changes the history of the tourbillon. Rotating the gauge in two directions, horizontal and vertical, more accurately compensates for errors in accuracy caused by Earth's gravity. It is exactly a complication watch equipped with a completely new tourbillon devised for wristwatches. Two retrograde hands linked to the rotation of this tourbillon indicate 8 minutes and 60 seconds respectively.

"crazy The numbers 1 to 12 on the "Hours" dial are arranged randomly, and the hour hand jumps to indicate the time. This is a new approach to the concept of time. With this out-of-this-world watch, Frank Müller established a new philosophy of time that is not bound by the conventional order of time.

Cage and horizontal and vertical rotating 'tourbillon' Following Revolution 2, the world's first triaxial (three-axis type) A tourbillon with a tourbillon Revolution 3". Three gauges rotate around three fixed axes that are perpendicular to each other. It is a model that should be called a miracle with amazing specs.

Randomly arranging the indexes on the dial is a free and open creation that is not bound by anything. The hours, and the tourbillon, which remains the most exquisite and most astonishing complication in watchmaking art. A marvelous and dreamy fusion of tradition and revolution in the ultimate in horological complication. Exactly Frank It is a complicated watch that exists only in Muller.

Frank Muller has continued to announce world-first mechanisms and functions over the past years, and has arrived at this Evolution3-1. The mechanism installed in this model is a triaxial tourbillon realized in Revolution 3, a perpetual calendar, and a power reserve of 10 days produced by twin barrels.

Frank The ultimate complication watch "Eternitas" created by Muller by combining all of its technologies. This watch, which means "eternal" in Latin, derives from the self-winding mechanism that will continue to run without stopping as long as you continue to use it. "AETERNITAS (Eternitas) comes in five different versions, all with a common movement. Tono Designed to fit a Curvex case, the near-elliptical movement is self-winding, with a micro-rotor at 6 o'clock and visible through a sealed soubac. Its size is 40.8mm long x 33.8mm wide and 7.3mm thick.

The movement has a twin-barrel barrel and a power reserve of 8 days. It also has a large tourbillon with a carriage diameter of 14 mm, and its balance has a platinum screw for adjustment and no adjustment needle. The design is also unique, with the initials FM placed on the upper bridge of the tourbillon in a very sophisticated style. The tourbillon sits on top of the rotor and can be seen through the see-through back.

<Flying tourbillon, power reserve display, platinum micro-rotor>
You can instantly check the remaining amount of the barrel with the power reserve display.

<Flying tourbillon, split-second chronograph, 24-hour hour indicator, power reserve display, platinum micro-rotor>
Along with the tourbillon is a split-seconds chronograph. This chronograph mechanism has three column wheels, instantaneously switching 30-minute and 12-hour counters placed at 12 o'clock in a 120-degree fan (retrograde type). indicated by a needle. If the chronograph hand moves beyond 12 hours, the totalizer hand that has reached the end will return to zero and start a new record. The split-seconds chronograph mechanism, indicated by two hands, can be seen through the see-through back. There is also a 24-hour time zone display at 9 o'clock.

<Flying Tourbillon, Eternal Calendar (1000), Power Reserve Display, Two 24-Hour Hour Indicators, Platinum Micro-Rotor>
This is the world's first watch equipped with an "eternal calendar". A typical perpetual calendar displays the date/day of the week, month/moon phase, and automatically corrects for the size of each month, eliminating the need for the user to make manual adjustments. The mechanism also takes into account leap years, but requires a human adjustment for each hundredth year. In the Gregorian calendar currently in use, the leap year is skipped three times in a row every 100 years in a cycle of 400 years, and then reappears in the 400th year. For example, the years 2100, 2200, and 2300 AD have no leap years and are normal, while the years 2000, 2400, and 2800 AD have leap years again.

Frank Developed in Müller's Watchland workshops, the 'Eternal Calendar' differs from any type of traditional 'perpetual calendar'. In other words, the rules for leap years according to the Gregorian calendar, that is, the year number in units of 100 years, are divisible by 100 and are also divisible by 400, are leap years, and other years are common years. It's from
In the case of this Eternal Calendar, we added two sets of gears to move the calendar in 1000-year cycles.

◆The first set of gears combines 10-year, 100-year, and 1000-year cycle gears to display the year in 1000-year cycles.
◆The second set of gears uses a cam to control the cycle of omitting the leap year three times in succession every 100 years and reviving it for the fourth time. In addition to retrograde date (date) at 12 o'clock, day of the week, 12-month name display, 24-hour display combined with day and night, normal leap year display, and equation of time at the top of the dial There is also a display. Equations are also linked to the Eternal Calendar. Even if the watch's mainspring unwinds and stops and must be reset later, the equation will stay in sync with the calendar.

Below the dial are two time zones indicated by a 24-hour hand. They are located to the right and left of the tourbillon, and the hours can be set by means of pushpieces on the case. Pressing the pushpiece on the bottom right of the case activates the time zone indicator on the right side of the tourbillon. For example, if you are traveling from west to east, pressing this pushpiece will move the hour hand forward by one hour. Conversely, pressing the pushpiece on the bottom left of the case will move the time zone indicator on the right side of the tourbillon. For example, if you are traveling from east to west, pressing this pushpiece will move the hour hand back by one hour. There is also a window between the tourbillon and the center of the dial, displaying the year from 0 to 999, in an infinite cycle. The dial also displays the moon phase with utmost precision. The display error is only 6.8 seconds per lunar month. In other words, every 1000 years there is only a one day difference. On the other hand, in the case of a general moon phase, there is a one-day deviation every four years.

Frank The ultimate complication watch "Eternitas" created by Muller by combining all of its technologies. Among them, "Eternitas" reigns as the highest peak Mega 4 encompasses almost all the functions in a mechanical watch, consolidating all the techniques of human ingenuity and craftsmanship. While equipped with a unique complex mechanism, an infinite number of parts are hand-finished in a limited space, and the beautiful and delicate movement will make you realize the depth of human wisdom and will delight all who see it. It gives a deep impression. It is almost like a magnificent view of the earth as if you were looking at it from space.

As symbolized by the name "Giga", it is equipped with a large tourbillon with a diameter of 20 mm that occupies about half the space of the watch and pursues attractiveness. Despite its low beat (18,000 vibrations/hour), the four barrels (barrels) provide a power reserve of approximately 10 days. skeleton The version offers a world of perfect beauty, with a highly engineered mechanism that opens up to every nook and cranny.

The Thunderbolt Tourbillon rotates the tourbillon carriage, which normally rotates once per minute, at a speed of 12 rotations per minute.
Frank has a design theory that overturns preconceived notions It is a new challenge to Müller's tourbillon, and it is also an expression of respect and pride.

A "gravity" tourbillon that fuses a small, aggregated time display with an offset tourbillon that rotates as if floating in the air, giving you a new sense of time that is not bound by the classics. Franck, who knows the history of the tourbillon It is completed as a new tourbillon unique to Muller. It features a graceful planetary motion reminiscent of the movement of celestial bodies, like a rotating planet revolving around the sun. Therefore, it has a completely different personality from the typical tourbillon, and pursues an ideal that is infinitely unbound by gravity.
