Franck Muller – VANGUARD™ V45 Rising Skeleton Carbon - 2020
The Vanguard™ Racing Skeleton collection from Franck Muller takes inspiration from the world of automotive competition. It houses a stylish engine-turned skeletonized movement.
Inspired by the motorsport engines, the automatic movement and the frame structure of the Vanguard Racing Skeleton have been significantly lightened. To realize this dynamic timepiece, technical materials such as carbon fiber, titanium and aluminum have been chosen.

The Vanguard Racing Skeleton features hours, minutes, seconds and date.
The central seconds counter, thanks to a smoked sapphire glass, provides
an accurate display while allowing great visibility of the movement.
The seconds indications start from the bottom instead of the top as in
an automobile rev counter, allowing the owner to read the seconds from
both ends of the hand.

The white hand with red tip and the bicolor second indications further reinforce the idea of a rev counter, making you want to push the hand into the red zone. To further accentuate the skeleton design, the date numbers have also been fully skeletonized.

The strap is subtly integrated into the case with the help of two unseen screws, instead of the regular spring-bar technique. The rubber inside the strap effortlessly takes the shape of the wrist, combining comfort and aesthetics, while the Alcantara® suede reminds the covering of a sports car cockpit.

The Vanguard™ Racing Skeleton is available in 18k rose gold, stainless steel, titanium and carbon.
Inspired by automotive competition, the Vanguard™ Racing Skeleton collection calls in for pure and stylish engine-turned aesthetics.
