Franck Muller IFC Mall Boutique in Hong Kong
Franck Muller unveils new boutique in IFC blending horological artistry with lifestyle elegance.
Renowned as the “Master of Complications,” the renowned Swiss watchmaker Franck Muller—celebrated for its creativity and complex horology—has officially opened its new boutique at the high-end shopping landmark IFC Mall in Central, Hong Kong, in partnership with leading luxury watch retailer Cortina Watch Hong Kong. More than a stage for exceptional timepieces, the new space serves as a hub where art, design, and contemporary lifestyle converge.
Spanning 1,504 square feet, the boutique’s interior continues the brand’s signature aesthetic of understated luxury, perfectly balancing classic and modern elements. Warm neutral tones are complemented by cool bronze metal details, evoking a vibe that is both cutting-edge and nuanced. The spacious layout allows guests to explore freely, much like stepping into an elegant contemporary art gallery.
The newly designed bar area is a highlight, redefining luxury retail. This space offers more than just comfort; it fosters a natural interaction with the brand, helping customers discover watches that match their individuality in a relaxed setting. This concept reflects Franck Muller’s philosophy of a sophisticated lifestyle, transforming shopping into a truly enjoyable experience.
To celebrate the new boutique opening, Franck Muller presents the one and only—Vanguard Revolution 3 Skeleton in a stunning ruby execution. This masterpiece represents the apex of complex watchmaking, featuring the world’s first skeletonized triple-axis tourbillon that pushes the boundaries of horology.
Crafted in white gold with elegant dimensions of 46 mm in width and 55.9 mm in length, the timepiece offers an unobstructed view of its intricate movement through front and back sapphire crystals. Its three carriages rotate at different intervals, creating a dynamic display of precision. The innermost carriage completes a full rotation every 60 seconds, the intermediate carriage every eight minutes, and the outer carriage every hour. Unlike traditional tourbillons that only compensate for positional errors in the vertical plane, this advanced system ensures exceptional accuracy in all orientations.
Further exemplifying the brand’s dedication to exceptional craftsmanship, the Vanguard Revolution 3 Skeleton in ruby execution is meticulously hand-set with 28.4 carats of baguette-cut rubies, employing the iconic invisible setting technique to create a flawless, radiant brilliance.
Step into the new Franck Muller boutique at IFC Mall, presented in collaboration with Cortina Watch Hong Kong. In a space defined by Art Deco luxury and a relaxing atmosphere, discover this one and only masterpiece alongside the iconic collections of Franck Muller. Begin a journey where exquisite craftsmanship meets leisurely indulgence.
