Joaopac Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Hi I'm looking for a Franck Muller. So I would like to have some advices from members who already bought one in the past, like which dealer they bought from, etc. I prefer a dealer inside EU in order to avoid custom problems. Please give me some hints Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joaopac Posted December 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 http://www.puretimewatch.com/product/casablanca-chrono-ss-black/ This is the Franck Muller of my dreams! But US$ 328 it's a lot of money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miagi Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 yes, :/ thats an unfortunate fault from the factories ... should have been so easy to avoid, yet it passed through their quality controll.. (or lack of it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joaopac Posted December 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 The Casablanca Chrono SS black looks great. It's the same model that Precious Time had in his site. I wish I could find it in another dealer a bit cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joaopac Posted December 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Can't find it cheaper than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Last year I built a Franken Muller for a friend; started with a not-so-accurate rep and added the following: -Gen dial (relumed by Zigmeister) -Gen 2892 -Gen crown and tube -Nice ostrich strap Turned out quite nice; this seems to be a daily wearer for my friend as it's all I ever see on her wrist Started here... Gen dial with dirty markers, badly in need of a relume: Quick test fit in case; notice the huge rep crown: 2892: Gen crown and tube: All finished up: So, if you can't find a decent out of the box FM to simply wear, there are other options. A bit more expensive, but not terribly so. Certainly less than buying the gen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joaopac Posted December 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 (edited) That's a good option, but I dont know how to mount a watches lol It's too bad that I can't find a decent FM replica for at least 300 US dollars. I only give, at maximum, 270 US dollars. Maybe I can negotiate the price with some dealers. Edited December 3, 2011 by Joaopac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
