Franck Muller Chronograph 7000cc Japan LE

This piece is probably not what you expect to see when we mention the name Franck Muller. But before they were known for their Tonneau-shaped pieces with a very specific design language, Franck Muller was known for his beautiful complicated round watches from the early 90’s.

Harking back to that early design language, the piece we have here is a Japan-market limited edition produced in a very limited run of 20 pieces. It is similar to the more common non-limited production 7000CC but with one important difference – it’s a two register rather than a 3, just as those mid 90’s FM pieces were, and features Breguet numerals. These changes transform the dial, and it’s absolutely gorgeous in our opinion.

The stainless case is wonderfully proportioned, and measures in at 39mm. It’s powered by the FM 7000 movement.

Condition is TZ Excellent, with only light signs of wear on the case in the form of hairline scratches and swirlies, as well as a small scrape between the upper lugs. Please see images for full condition details.

Service history is unknown. Currently running at +11 seconds per day at 300 degrees of amplitude. Chrono starts, stops and resets as it should.

Comes as watch-only, no accessories are included.

Amazing example of a very rare piece.
