Franck Muller’s reputation as the “master of complications” has proven to be well-earned. This Swiss manufacturer’s timepieces are celebrated works of art with signature details such as sizable cases, exploding numerals, and fascinating retrograde displays.

Once again Franck Muller takes us on a wonderful journey from dreams…to reality. In this Color Dreams quartz model we encounter a bezel lovingly set with 66 gorgeous diamonds, and as if that wasn’t enough, the dial is a veritable riot of color.

The polished stainless steel case measures 43 x 30 mm and a slim and comfortable 9 mm in height. It rests upon a black alligator leather strap with a tang buckle that has been set with eight more diamonds.

Other features include a push / pull winding crown, a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, a solid, brushed case back, and hour and minute hands that are luminous for easy viewing in low light.

While the black-colored curved dial is alive with colorful Arabic numerals, indeed there is more here than meets the eye. Behold, the subtly patterned dial also includes screened back Arabic numerals arranged as if they were tumbling through space…and time?

Standout feature(s): Bezel lovingly set with 66 gorgeous diamonds; tang buckle features eight diamonds; colorful and unique dial.
