A Limited Model Inspired by the Land of the Rising Sun
"Vanguard™ Rising Sun"

Deep Crimson Indexes, Wavy Nouvelle Vague Guilloché
Expressing the Sun and Vitality Through Guilloché



The "Vanguard" series, FRANCK MULLER's latest collection, was born in 2014. Its world-first three-dimensional curved Tonneau Curvex case elegantly houses complex and intricate Grand Complication movements.

The "Vanguard™ Rising Sun" is a model characterized by its powerful form. The deep crimson indexes represent the red of the sun, while the Nouvelle Vague guilloché, which undulates across the dial, is said to symbolize the vitality of the rising sun over the ocean.

The case-side slits and crown are the same color as the indexes. The design, including the FRANCK MULLER logo at the 12 o'clock position, is unique to this limited edition model. Furthermore, the strap, a combination of crocodile and rubber, achieves an active luxury style that pursues both functionality and a premium feel.
