There is three times the fun as Franck Muller breathes new life to its legendary Cintree Curvex Master Banker watch—with special editions for Asia, at that
In 1996, Franck Muller introduced the Master Banker watch, which boasted three separate time indicators on the dial, each with its own hour and minute hands. The design was considered revolutionary then because watchmaker extraordinaire Muller himself provided an innovative solution to a conundrum financial experts the world over face: How to sync the trades with all the major markets across Asia, Europe and the US?
With the Master Banker, the wearer can set three time zones—just by using the crown—and view the different timings at a single glance thanks to the two additional sub-dials. Hence the watch's name and its immense popularity among the bankers, financial whizzes and their high-flying friends.

This year, the watchmaker builds on the model’s legacy by introducing new exclusive variations of the Cintree Curvex Master Banker. A 700-piece limited-edition collection, the Cintree Curvex Master Banker Asia Exclusive is available at Franck Muller boutiques and selected watch retailers across Asia.
The watch's success formula remains untouched: the iconic three-time-zone complication is still housed in the equally legendary Cintree Curvex case, which is the most distinctive case shape of the watchmaker. The generous and beautiful curves of the tonneau-shaped case add to its iconic identity as with the brand's trademark numerals on the dial.
