Franck Muller is proud to be the exclusive watch sponsor of the world famous vintage car rally, known as The Colorado Grand.
The Colorado Grand is an annual charity tour taking place early September. 100 of the world’s finest and rarest cars, their drivers and crew meet in Vail Colorado for 1000 miles of driving over four days.
The event pays tribute to the many amazing car enthusiasts that will travel together again in harmony with the Colorado Rockies.
In tribute to this amazing event, Franck Muller has created four exclusive models limited to 33 pieces in honor of this being the 33rd running of the Colorado Grand.
Each of the four timepieces represents an emblematic car: Pine green for the Bentley; stunning silver for the Mercedes, “Rosso Corsa” (racing red) for the Ferrari and “French blue” for the Bugatti.
The Vanguard Colorado limited edition is inspired by automotive art and technical details of vintage cars are designed on each watch.
The gorgeous automatic movement manufactured in-house is housed in the famous Vanguard case in its slim 41 millimeters version.
The dial showcases bold hand-painted numerals and a seconds counter placed at 6 o’clock, inspired by the car counter.
Attention to details on these beautiful pieces will be appreciated by car enthusiats. Inspired by the automotive industry, the “bochonné” decoration is beautifully reproduced in the center of the watch dial.
The seconds counter perfectly mimics an old-fashioned car speedometer with its similar typography, hand design and “assuré circulaire” decoration. While the perfectly integrated strap features the same leather elements as the old cars.
