Thank you, Goh!
The direction they went in is a shame. Maybe they can get back on a better path on day.

I put on a Franck Muller for today.
It has a nice old school feel to it. Manual wind of course 😁 ...
I know exactly what you mean.
I generally think of tonneau-shaped cases. They are usually not to my taste, but many people do like them.
Thanks, Lars! It definitely reminds me
of the RD’s from the 1990’s. Mine is also a near replica of the FM’s that were also put out in the 1990’s 👍
A great collab they did there.
Revolution also did a colab with IWC on a cool bronze pilot watch.
Mine, they got me the number of my age the month it came out and I still enjoy it.
They have done some nice collabs but usually to big for my wrists. ...
Thanks, Larry!
Some say it was aesthetically similar to some Patek Philippe watches of the era, so your instincts are right on 😁
An incredible FM
One of the best. Just realised what my GP reminded me of (in my dreams!) ...
Thank you, imrootbeer7!
You can definitely see the resemblance. That’s a beautiful watch.
Classic
Can’t get more classy. Understated elegance. Wear it in good health, every moment.
FM is such an interesting brand
I originally hated the tonneau shaped case but eventually got a casablanca which brings me much pleasure. I've seen many round chronographs and they are all very charming, probably due to the smaller size, I may try to add one at some point. I have seen y...
Thank you, Arronax! I know of the version
you are referring to. I believe it is from 1991 sold through an Italian dealer in 40 or 50 examples. 👍
Great looking Franck Muller Chronograph.
I really thought this was a neo vintage piece so surprised to learn it is from 2022 but must be biased ona older FM offerings either way it really is a really great looking watch. Wear and enjoy it in good health. Marc
Thank you, Marc! You are correct.
It is based on a model from around 1991; the good old days of FM. Best regards, Steve
Beautiful watch!
And a faithful reproduction of the originals from the 90's. Those FM and RD chronographs from the 90's are tops, sadly both companies are a shell of their former selves.
Thank you, Goh!
