World’s Most Complicated Watch

World’s Most Complicated Watch

August 23th, 2024 –

Back in the late 90s, if you had money to burn and wanted a watch that looked like no other, one whose dials made the Rio Carnival look like an Amish funeral, you wore one of two brands: Alain Silberstein or Franck Muller. These were watches with the volume turned up LOUD . Indeed, Alain Silberstein was heavily influenced by the ever-colourful designs of the Swatch brand, while none other than Elton John declared Franck Muller ‘the Picasso of watches’.

They boasted large cases, eye-watering palettes, and seemed to radiate the belief that the quartz crisis was history and mechanical watches were back with a vengeance. While the latter proved to be true, Alain Silberstein somehow fell by the wayside, while the far more technically accomplished Franck Muller had its thunder stolen by a brand that brazenly took its signature tonneau case and dazzling dials and ramped things up a level.

We are, of course, talking about the watch star du jour , Richard Mille. Yet despite being somewhat eclipsed by Richard Mille in recent years, Franck Muller has proved it can still bring out the big guns when it needs to.

Simon was willing to help in every way, developing a professional and beautiful suite of materials which showcases our company. I was impressed all around with his skills, customer service and attention to detail.

I could write a long, rambling review about how good Simon is but his work really does speak for itself. If you have a business idea, this guy will make it a reality with slick branding and beautiful web design that portrays your vision just the way you intended. Quite simply, the best around. What more could we ask from a designer?
