Inspired by the dynamic Vanguard™ collection, the Vanguard
Yachting Anchor™ Skeleton develops a creative vision of time
with affirmed nautical details. Featuring all the seafaring
details from the deep blue to the wind rose adorning the dial,
the sea world inspired each delicate detail of this newly born
timepiece.
The openworked bridges have been designed to accentuate
the architecture of the watch and reveal the wholly in-house
manufactured movement.
This journey partner is available in 18k rose, yellow and white
gold, stainless steel and bronze.
With the Vanguard Yachting Anchor™ Skeleton, Franck Muller
created the perfect alchemy between the traditional mechanical
movement and the watchmaking performance of the seven
days power reserve.
An ideal sporty and elegant timepiece for sea lovers, with
bridges inspired by anchors and a second at 6 o’clock which
represents a compass rose.
A balanced design showcasing the passion for crafts and art of
details characteristic of the Franck Muller manufacture.
