To commemorate the 20th Anniversary of Crazy Hours, Franck Muller and Hom Nguyen have once again combined their skills, united by a common goal: merging the artistry of watchmaking with the talents of an artist to present an extraordinary limited collection to their dedicated collectors.
In this special collection, Hom Nguyen unleashed his creativity, crafting each numeral with his renowned and exceptional style. Flowing seamlessly from one stroke to the next, these numerals symbolize the intricate paths of human existence. The artist’s intricate designs were meticulously recreated by Franck Muller’s skilled dial craftsmen, upholding the highest standards of watchmaking tradition, thereby breathing life into each numeral.
Featuring the renowned Crazy Hours complication, this limited edition timepiece offers a distinctive interpretation of time, showcasing hour numerals meticulously hand-drawn in an unconventional sequence. Thanks to an exclusive patented mechanism, the central hour hand gracefully leaps from one hour to the next, adhering to the randomly positioned numerals on the dial.
Consequently, after 60 minutes, the hour hand seamlessly transitions to the next appropriate numeral. Simultaneously, the minute hand adheres to the conventional 60-minute cycle as it revolves around the dial. Time assumes a personalized, individual, and exclusive significance. One eagerly anticipates the captivating leap of the Crazy Hours hand at each 59th minute.
Equipped with a bidirectional self-winding movement, this mythical and enchanting masterpiece of horology boasts a power reserve of 42 hours.
The Vanguard Crazy Hours by Hom Nguyen embodies a flawless fusion of artistry, with every timepiece accompanied by a certificate of authenticity personally signed by the artist, in addition to the standard certificate. To elevate the collection’s uniqueness further, each timepiece will be presented in a distinctive presentation box.
These exceptional timepieces are offered in stainless steel, titanium, ceramic, and 18k rose gold, with limited editions of either 50 or 100 pieces, depending on the finishing. They are available in three sizes: 41, 43, and 45 millimeters, ensuring a variety of choices for discerning collectors.
