The Franck Muller Revolution is the world’s first multi-axis tourbillon ever created. With inspirations drawn from biaxial tourbillon carriage clocks invented in the late 1970s, the present collection from Franck Muller represents some of the most ambitious and amazing achievements of modern watchmaking. The highly complicated movement is placed in a classic white gold Cintrée Curvex case and thus the watch embodies the DNA of Franck Muller’s fine design and watchmaking.
