Introduction
Franck Muller produces at least one world watch premiere every year and have done so since 14 years. The introduction of the free oscillating tourbillon with jumping hours demonstrated his new perspective on tourbillon construction.
The Calibre 94, 1994's world premiere, incorporated some 350 parts and was the culmination of three years' Franck Muller research. The Endurance 24 with split-seconds chronograph, the 1997 world premiere, even became the official watch of the Le Mans Race (although the Franck Muller racing team McLaren Number 53 - out with gear box damage - was not as succesful as the chrono watch).
