A premiere showing of watchmaking excellence

Beautifully showcased in a chic, streamlined decor, Franck Muller’s latest creations sparked
keen interest from the elite connoisseurs of unusual timepieces. The spectacular Tourbillon
Rapide Thunderbolt deserves a special mention for being named the 2012 Technical
Breakthrough by Singapore’s trade magazine Revolution. Entirely designed and manufactured
in Geneva, this hand-crafted technical masterpiece claims to be the world’s fastest tourbillon
with a blistering rotation completed every 5 seconds.

One of the show’s other superstars was the Iron Croco, rounding out the alligator collection
with a steel version that reveals exquisite harmony in which the face seems to be one with the
alligator wristband. The refinement of its case and the extremely detailed metal work make it
the ideal wristwatch for the modern man, who enjoys turning originality into a distinguishing
value.
