Alkuperäinen kuvaus

Franck Muller is perhaps the brand with the most diverse range of styles among all prestigious Swiss manufacturers. Known as the “Master of Complications”, Franck Muller is the greatest proponent and popularizer of the Cintrée Curvex case shape. Thanks to the exceptionally beautiful dials and cases, Franck Muller watches are very popular among collectors, and among famous personalities, some of the brand's biggest admirers are Elton John, Demi Moore, and Robin Williams.

Undoubtedly, the most recognizable and characteristic feature of Franck Muller watches is their so-called “tonneau” case, especially in the legendary Casablanca series.

The Casablanca line was created to pay homage to a dynamic, modern, and at the same time, classic style. Conceived as part of the beautiful Cintrée Curvex line, Casablanca restrainedly and authentically resurrects the elegance of the period between the two world wars in the first half of the 20th century. The oversized Arabic numerals, with a size that changes according to their position on the dial – which can boldly be called a symbol of the brand – allow for excellent visibility and make the series completely original. Its multicolored dials artistically immortalize the marriage between form and color.

Franck Muller Casablanca 8880 C DT AC

This model is a worthy representative of the wonderful Cintrée Curvex line of luxury watches by Franck Muller and carries a dynamic, modern, and at the same time, classic style.

The model was introduced in 2005 and until the launch of the 9900 was the largest representative of the brand. This watch undoubtedly belongs to the exclusive group of the highest class of timepieces. It features a stainless steel barrel-shaped case, with dimensions of 39.6 mm width without the crown, 55.4 mm length, and 17.5 mm thickness.

The deep black dial bears large luminous Arabic numerals, luminescent hour and minute hands, as well as a central seconds hand made of polished steel.

The movement is an automatic FM Calibre 2800 on an ETA base, modified by Franck Muller. The main differences are that the movement is a so-called sweep second, and the rotor is made of 950 platinum. It operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, has a 42-hour power reserve, and 21 jewels.

The crystal is a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and the strap is an original black rubber with a standard buckle. The water resistance is typical for dress watches – 30 meters.

Categorically, this is a striking representative of dress watches for people who seek an elegant presence on their wrist.
