Extremely rare and important early (No. 02) Franck Muller complication.

Unlike the numerous Mullers built under the later corporate structure, his early watches are rare, distinctive and highly sought-after. Every one of his early pieces that we've had the pleasure to handle has found a new home within days.

This gentleman's solid 18ct white gold perpetual calendar has his trademark second chronograph dial at the rear, carrying a selection of three technical measuring scales: pulsometer, telemetre and tachymetre.

Original certificate (undated), early service history from 2006, and current service history (with official Franck Muller service warranty). Black alligator strap and original Muller pin buckle.

The meteoric Franck Muller is one of the pioneers of independent watchmaking, the young master choosing to separate himself from the closed and conservative mainstream Swiss industry in the early 1990s. This risky and iconoclastic separation brought him well deserved renown.
