The Vanguard Yachting's bold tonneau case is already a distinctive sporty-luxury shape from Franck Muller; this example has been elevated further with a full aftermarket natural diamond bussdown across the case and dial, plus a crocodile strap swap — a genuine statement piece well beyond the factory configuration.
Powered by the automatic Calibre FM 2536-SCDT, offering a 42-hour power reserve and Franck Muller's in-house finishing (Côtes de Genève, circular graining, hand-polished bridges).
Black dial fully set with aftermarket natural diamonds in place of the factory applied Arabic numeral markers — a significant visual and material departure from stock that should be described clearly as a custom modification.
Presents in excellent (mint) condition, with case, diamond-setting, and crocodile strap all showing no notable wear.
Full set with original box and original papers
