Catalogue Essay
Cased in the noblest of all metals, this heavy chronograph wristwatch features two dials. While the front displays three subsidiary registers, the reverse also displays tachymetre, telemetre and pulsations scales which is operated by the chronograph buttons. Further distinguishing the present watch is the case number '0', suggesting it is the very first example produced.
This watch is also notably a very early example, which is particularly collectible. It was manufactured only one year after Franck Muller first launched his namesake brand.
