Franck Muller Vanguard™ Revolution 3 Skeleton Rainbow

Step into a world of unparalleled elegance with the new Vanguard™ Revolution 3 Skeleton Rainbow. A masterpiece that offers an exceptional technical spectacle but also captivates with its vibrant array of colors, reminiscent of a rainbow, as well as emotions only to be found at Franck Muller.

Experience the mesmerizing precision and complexity of this timepiece. The extraordinary three-axis tourbillon orchestrates a symphony of time, rotating through cycles of one hour, eight minutes, and 60 seconds across its three cages.

Power flows from the gear train through all three carriages to activate the balance wheel five times each second. As the Revolution 3 has three carriages, the gear train has significant resistance to overcome. So as to provide an abundance of energy to drive this triple axis tourbillon, the movement was given a massive 10 days of power reserve. Furthermore, there are two retrograde indications at 4 and 8 o’clock for the progression of the 8-minute carriage and the 60-second carriage.

Featuring a breathtaking skeleton movement, this timepiece stylishly reveals openworked bridges and multi-colored indicators that allow to observe one of the most beautiful mechanisms in the entire Horlogerie. Encased within the iconic Vanguard™ case, this timepiece boasts a striking three-axis tourbillon, magnified under a sapphire crystal dome.

Entirely set by hand with baguette-cut stones, the Vanguard™ Revolution 3 Skeleton Rainbow case and crown together hold an impressive total of 28.4 carats. Adding further to its luxurious detailing, the watch's buckle is also handset with 1.87 carats baguette-cut gems, showcasing the same meticulous mastery of invisible setting technique. This technique aims to eliminate any visible prongs or claws, creating a seamless surface that enhances the gemstones' radiant sparkle. 

The vivid rainbow color palette employed here is not only a technical achievement but also a visual spectacle, reflecting the exceptional craftsmanship that requires years of dedicated training. The tremendous work accomplished on the rainbow color palette is outstanding and offers an exceptional sparkle to the timepiece. Each individual gem is precisely positioned, contributing to the timepiece’s overall brilliance and allure. This immense effort showcases outstanding mastery in jewelry setting, offering an extraordinary sparkle that elevates the entire design.

This triple axis tourbillon corrects the force of gravity in all positions, unlike a classic tourbillon which only compensates when the wristwatch is in a vertical position. This complex system of carriages is a technical marvel and is the result of one of the most complex creations in Haute Horlogerie.

Wholly designed and manufactured in-house, the futuristic design of the Vanguard™ Revolution 3 Skeleton Rainbow is a mechanical treasure showcasing the exceptional knowledge of the Franck Muller manufacture.

The new Vanguard™ Revolution 3 Skeleton Rainbow comes with Franck Muller’s 5-year tourbillon warranty and is delivered in a very special box with an automated opening system.
