Since its 1992 debut, Franck Muller’s Cintrée Curvex has stood as a hallmark of the brand, courtesy of its distinctive silhouette and unique numeral design. Expanding on the model’s success, Franck Muller has unveiled the Curvex CX Lady collection, featuring two new sizes of 30 and 33 millimetres, specially crafted for women who appreciate meticulous attention to detail.

The Curvex CX Lady takes the iconic contours of Cintrée Curvex to new heights, featuring a redesigned case with sapphire crystal extending seamlessly to the bracelet. The separate bezel allows for unique two-tone treatments, showcasing the technical prowess of Franck Muller’s craftsmanship, whilst the “invisible” bezel enhances dial visibility, a challenging feat that breathes new life into the classic case shape. Integrated straps ensure enhanced wrist comfort.

The dial boasts an intricate guilloché pattern inspired by a twisted Clous de Paris, creating a mesmerizing play of light and movement. The three-dimensional pyramids reflect light, producing a captivating effect. With a self-winding mechanical movement and a 42-hour power reserve, the Curvex CX Lady also offers a classic and elegant finish with diamond-encrusted rose or white gold cases, available with or without diamonds on the dial. Available in a variety of hues, including pastels and classic black and white, the model’s Colour Dreams variation features multi-coloured Franck Muller numerals for a vibrant touch.

The Curvex CX Lady collection is available from $75,900 (CX 30) and $80,900 (CX 33) through the brand’s boutiques and select retail partners.
