Franck Muller Casablanca Watch Review

[goktu01]

the best watch is w. constantine

[benellichamp]

very nice! video was well done and you know your stuff!

[talltomp]

beautiful looking watch .. same the design of crazy hours is boss, but when i went shop to try it was far to small for a man , the king conquestidor is the right size, need to do a crazy hours but bigger.. please do it franck!!

[DonQuixote1604]

platinum rotor? whats the point? you cant even see it. the side of the watch looks so ugly and boring. Overall the watch looks somewhat like a ladies watch.

[nblincoe]

ive got a frank muller and a martin braun. I must say my martin braun eos is far more elegant.

[PhantomFive]

dont, like the simpel numbers...looks cheap..if they whore in gold it would be different

[yamahonkawazuki]

@PhantomFive the rose gold 7880 double retrograde looks nice. body style similar to this.

[Tsub2222]

watch is dope i stay with my cartier on but i might have to get one of these

[cronaldo3889]

i mean, frederique constant watches are more elegant and prettier than most of the franck muller timepieces, not all though. and i felt that the reasonably cheaper prices of frederique constant watches as compared to franck muller's makes it all the more worthwhile and a better buy. no offence, thats just my own opinion

[georgegrasser]

I agree.

[cronaldo3889]

i recently bought a frederique constant watch, and i must say that frederique constant watches are much much elegant and prettier than franck muller timepieces, no disrespect to those who own a franck muller watch though

[anthonysjb]

Wouldn't buy this watch he over-hyped

[em3digital]

Yes, you are very right about having to see it in person or have it on your wrist because I bought one about seven months ago (that same one but the smaller model). And although I hardly ever wear it... being that I like larger watches, it is a refreshing feeling when I do wear it. I like it even more now! Love your reviews also!

[annnnnnnnnnnnas]

not good..!!get a life...get a gyrotourbillon (JLC) or "Chopard" gravitational..............&

sorry i forgot ur some poor dude with cheap fake chinese watches

[breitlingsource]

yup, that's exactly it right there. you got me pegged!

[caz0101]

haha what an asshole

[lowfiwhiteguy]

Please make more stupid comments, it's actually hilarious to read what you write.

[benellichamp]

@annnnnnnnnnnnas dude. ur some poor indian in the slums. you could not dream of having one of these, you probably have the cheap chinese fakes. haha

[cillantro]

@benellichamp Oh so now there are'nt any Indians who can buy this watch? LOL the way you speak you are some poor redneck from the south shooting squirrels in your back yard for sustenance or some ghetto dweller in the living on food stamps!Stupid racist homeless tramp! No Wait......you are most probably a hobo who probably can't afford even the chinese fake!Hehehe ^_^

[benellichamp]

@cillantro ok chief. whatever you say!

[trevskiw2008]

that is one of the best bracelets on a watch i have ever seen. fantastic.

[anthonysjb]

your right your buying the name if your going to buy a watch buy some thing wih there movement like paneri or glashuette original

[moncai1]

Not worth the money, it has a basic eta movement!

[textthing]

The 2892 is not a "basic ETA movement", it's a high-end movement modified by Franck Muller. It also forms the basis for Omega's so-called "in-house" 2500.

[moncai1]

It's still an ETA movement, which is well made and reliable but FM do very little to modify it. For the money you pay for this watch it should be an in-house movement. Therefore I don't feel it's worth it!

[textthing]

I take your point, but there's an argument to be made that a lot of in-house movements aren't as accurate as the 2892-2. There's an interesting article on the subject if you simply Google 'ETA 2892' and choose the first link. A lot of manufacturers, such as IWC, make extensive modifications to the movement; take the Flieger for instance.

[moncai1]

They don't make as many changes as they'd like you to believe! FM see itself as an alternative (more rock and roll high end watch company) to the likes of Patek etc.... but it's movements are nowhere near as well finished as these in-house movements. I do however think that it's as if not more reliable than most high end in-house movements!

[textthing]

From what I've read, the changes IWC make are pretty substantial. I can't speak for FM, as the design isn't to my taste, but I agree that the in-house movements of the higher-end brands have their own special fascination.

[moncai1]

I've worked on IWC Valjoux 7750 based movements and the changes aren't as big as you'd think. About 30% is modified and much of this is just cosmetic finishing!

[janbaer1]

I find that his watches look very much like those of the Indiana Watch Co., American Waltham, Elgin and Gruen from the 1920's through 1940's.

My personal favorite? My black on black Gruen Airflight.

[sibenik78]

Franck muller watches are the best.I got a king conquistador soleil. I want to get a cracy hours next.

[GoldenLeaf08]

Do one on the Frank Muller Crazy hours will u?

[robbenter]

i love my big watches. panerai and chopard and mont blanc. not so much into the brandings. I just know what i enjoy wearing and how it looks to me on my wrist.

[rmoshammer]

I am a Rolex enthusiast and I love good manifacture calibers. I heard, that Franck Muller is sometimes a little overpriced and that the "lower" priced modells are never representing the money one paid. I would like to see a review in a watch magazine. The look of your FM is great buy the way!

[eltejano]

thanks for the review, pretty nice

and you're right- they're *much* more impressive in person

[KCL000000]

Frank Muller watches to me are a little over-hyped. They are a relatively new watch house are they not? Similar to Bell and Ross in terms of experience?

A great review nonetheless! Keep them coming!!!

[salvega]

the bracelet looks nice..but me...im just not a fan of the shape....but it does look nice...

[Calsonic66]

This one is nice but I like the crazy color dream watch better.

[breitlingsource]

yup, watches and knives are my thing

[atrisk1]

wow your a watch colleter too my dads a watch colleter too i colloet knives
