Franck MullerVanguardModel No: V45 SC DT YACHTING AC.BL-2

By no means discreet or subtle, this Franck Muller Vanguard Yachting is attention-grabbing with its recognisable tonneau case, an interesting dial, and the appropriate colourway. It's a Franck Muller through and through with pleasing nautical nods, considering the watch is primed for seafaring adventures. The soothing blue hue that blankets the dial reminds one of the ocean's calmness. It's a popular timepiece from the maison's repertoire that offers the wearer high watchmaking and endless versatility. Yes, although the watch on no account is sleek or would settle under a sleeve's cuff but is statement enough to complement black-tie or blazer looks.

The dial of this Vanguard Yachting reference V45 SC DT YACHTING AC.BL brings out Franck Muller's expert craftsmanship through flaring Arabic numeral hour markers, which also set the tone of the watch as bold and dominating. A petite round date window sits atop the six o'clock marker. A compass rose is positioned at the centre of the dial, complementing the scale on the flange depicting lines of longitude and latitude.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
