Franck Muller America 8880 REF# 8880 SC DT AMERICA Current Retail $9300 SOLD OUT EDITION This Franck Muller Casablanca Cintrée Curvex, America watch in stainless steel features an elegant silver dial with the America blue and red arabs, sweep seconds, and a date window at 6 oclock in a 39 x 55 mm case shown here on a blue crocodile strap with hand sewn red contrast stitching. The Franck Muller Casablanca Cintrée Curvex, America watch also features an automatic movement. The Cintrée Curvex, like all Franck Muller creations, has its own story. The project was to make a very complicated watch within totally new contours. Franck Muller devised a completely new watch-case: all research was based on the discovery of a single spherical point at which the three axes of the watch's curves had to meet. Scientific calculations were made based, among others, on perfect balance, which resulted in this famous three-dimensional watch-case, so characteristic of the Franck Muller style. The achievement of this creation is the curvature at 3 o'clock, 9 o'clock, 6 o'clock and 12 o'clock. For a better understanding of this aspect, it should be noted that the contours of a classic tonneau watch-case are less elaborate in design and are curved only at 6 and 12 o'clock. The three curves of the Cintrée Curvex watch are in perfect balance. The manufacturing procedure is Franck Muller exclusivity. The most sophisticated machines are needed to produce it, as not only the watch-case but also the back, dial, hands and glass are shaped.
Condition The watch is pre-owned in absolute perfect as-new and unworn condition. The watch is less than a year old and has only very mild wear on the underside of the strap which is normal for a watch worn a few times. The case and crystal are perfect. It comes 100% complete with all inner/outer manufacturer presentation boxes, booklets and warranty information.
