Franck Muller Unveils the Grand Central Tourbillon with a Central Tourbillon Design
Swiss luxury watchmaker Franck Muller has once again pushed the boundaries of traditional watchmaking with the release of the Grand Central Tourbillon. This timepiece features a rare and groundbreaking central tourbillon design, placing the tourbillon at the very heart of the dial, making it the focal point of both mechanics and aesthetics.
A Revolutionary Design Layout
The Cintre Curvex tonneau-shaped case has been redesigned with slimmer, more fluid lines. The sapphire crystal extends towards the lugs, creating a more spacious and open visual effect. The case is crafted from carbon fiber, displaying a unique interplay of black and gray streaks that add a modern and futuristic touch to the overall aesthetic.
The lacquered dial is equally captivating, featuring a radiating guilloch pattern that spirals outward from the center, perfectly complementing the rotation of the tourbillon. The oversized Arabic numerals enhance legibility and contribute to the watchs bold character.
The Innovation of the Central Tourbillon
Unlike traditional tourbillon placements typically at the 6 o’clock position or off-center the Grand Central Tourbillon places the mechanism directly in the middle of the dial, transforming it into the main visual attraction. This required a complete reconfiguration of the movement:
Optimized Gear System for the Hands: Since the tourbillon occupies the center of the dial, the hour and minute hands are positioned around its perimeter, appearing to float elegantly above the dial.
Redesigned Movement Architecture: Franck Muller developed the in-house FM CX 40T-CTR automatic movement to accommodate this innovative layout while ensuring precise timekeeping.
High-Performance Movement with Exceptional Power Reserve
At its core, the FM CX 40T-CTR movement operates at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4Hz), ensuring stability and accuracy. Additionally, the movement boasts an impressive 4-day (96-hour) power reserve, allowing the watch to maintain precise timekeeping even when not worn for extended periods.
Unparalleled Wearing Comfort & Exquisite Details
For enhanced wearability, the Grand Central Tourbillon is equipped with a fluororubber and tailor-stitched nylon strap, combining durability with comfort. The strap is secured with a brushed-finish folding clasp, designed exclusively for this model, adding a refined touch to the watchs overall aesthetic.
A Perfect Fusion of Mechanical Artistry and Innovation
With its striking design and groundbreaking mechanics, the Franck Muller Grand Central Tourbillon redefines the traditional tourbillon layout, demonstrating the brands dedication to innovation in haute horlogerie. Both visually and technically stunning, this timepiece is not just a precision instrument but a true work of art one that collectors and watch enthusiasts alike will admire and cherish.
