Franck Muller Master Banker

The Franck Muller Master Banker watch has been a smash hit for Franck Muller, the combination of 1920’s elegance and three-timezone functionality proving irresistible for fans of the brand. With the introduction of the Master Banker Lunar Date timepiece, the watchmakers at Franck Muller have made this luxury classic even more appealing. The dial of the Master Banker Lunar Date watch features a moon phase display, which rotates continually throughout the month to show the activity of Earth’s heavenly neighbor. You also have a pointer-type date display that surrounds the moon phase window–a handy addition, and in my opinion, more elegant than a window type display, particularly when combined with a moon phase. To compensate for the added moon-phase complication, the Franck Muller watchmakers have repositioned the displays for the second and third timezones, which the traditional Master Banker watch had at twelve and six o’clock, respectively. The newly placed time zone sub-dials result in great visual harmony that suits the Cintree Curvex design perfectly, and also have the advantage of being extremely easy to read at a glance.
