FRANCK MULLER | Two New Crocodiles Radiating Metallic Brilliance
The Gleam of Metal: A Croco's Mottled Pattern
Gold Croco & Iron Croco
Since its launch in 2011, the "Black Croco," a new staple model from Franck Muller, has been joined by two new variations: "Iron Croco" and "Gold Croco."

An Otherworldly Presence
Adorned with cases of gold or stainless steel (iron), and featuring an engraved crocodile pattern on the dial, these are Franck Muller's new "Iron Croco" and "Gold Croco" timepieces.
Unlike the black, shiny luster of the "Black Croco" that debuted in 2011, the mottled pattern in metallic materials emits an intense radiance, lending an unprecedented, powerful impact to the wrist.
This is a playful model that strongly reflects the founder Franck Muller's deep affection for watches, embodying his philosophy that "mechanical watches are not tools to tell time, but to enjoy time."
