AlexLeGrande Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 I am considering these two Franck Muller watches for my collection. If any members have either or both, I'd appreciate your recommendation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Definately Casablanca. I do not find Conquistador attractive at all somehow. Casablanca is more "Muller" for me. Maybe you should consider the new chrono casablanca? Here are some pics I took: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=89571 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexLeGrande Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Sql_pi: Thanks for the reply. I have seen the casablanca chrono on Josh's site, and I want to buy from him to thank him for an enormous favor that he did for me. He fixed two Pams that I purchased from other dealers at no cost to me. Your new Casablanca chrono shots are great. My fear is that the watch will look like soap-on-a-rope-on-my-wrist. The models I have listed are smaller and thinner, about $250 cheaper! I'm still undecided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff g Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 The regular, 'non chrono' Casablanca is still one of my favorite reps. I purchased it 4 years ago. And it is still, my go to dress watch. IMO the Casablanca is the nicest of the FM line. There are small differences in the numbers on the rep dial, but the case and clasp are spot on to the gen. A beautiful watch. Nice and thin. Buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shultz Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 I would like to see the King as a rep. Beautiful size for a rectangulaire watch. I don't mean the chrono which is already offered by Josh but the three hands version probably with an ETA 2824. Any rep in sight at this time?

AlexLeGrande Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 I went with the Casablanca. I needed a smaller, thinner, dressier watch, and the members recommendations were the topper. It's on its way and should be here soon. As always, I am anxious.

Did you go for the "updated dial" version where the "6" is cut-off by the date window? Post some pics when you get the watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
