Instantly recognizable by its big, tonneau-shaped case - it measures 44mm wide by 53.7mm long - the Vanguard collection o!ers both form and function in a bold way. Its newest Vanguard World Timer GMT displays time in the 24 offcial time zones, along with a decorative relief-engraved world map on the dial. The raised sapphire crystal is hand polished, and the case is two-tone with brushed titanium and satin-brushed 18K rose gold. The 24-hour time ring uses both slate gray and white on the chapter ring to indicate day and night. Powered by an automatic movement with 170 components and 42 hours of power reserve, the watch offers depth and dimension thanks to the multilayered dial that is guillochéd and lacquered with 20 layers. The large hour markers and the hands are coated with Super-LumiNova for easy reading in the dark. The watch is finished with a hand-sewn rubber-and-alligator strap with orange hand stitching.

Enabled by its incredible in-house capabilities, Frank Muller pushes the barrier of watchmaking to produce classic watches with innovative complications. Despite raising the horological bar by creating the Aeternitas Mega, the most complicated wristwatch in the world, Frank Muller continues to strive with unfailing dedication to detail. This is exemplified further through the dials, each requiring 20 layers of lacquer and an hour drying period before they are hand-painted with Luminova numerals. All cases are also polished by hand and dexterous efforts required to fashion the diamond cases.Recently birthed from this remarkable brand, the Franck Muller Vanguard Sapphire builds on the bold colors of the Vanguard collection to promote diversity and inclusivity. Encased in sleek stainless steel and mechanized by a 174-part manually wound movement, the complexity of this watch spans as vast as its rainbow palette.
