Franck Muller Skafander 43mm Titanium Red SKT 43 SC DT TTBR TT ER N032

The Franck Muller Skafander 43mm is the brand's dive watch, taking the signature tonneau shape Franck Muller is best known for and reworking it into a sports diver. This one is in titanium with red accents, the bright detailing that lifts the industrial feel of the case. The name comes from the Skafander, the early full-pressure diving suit built in the 1930s for navy divers, which fits the watch's deep-sea intent.

The case measures about 43mm across and 52mm top to bottom, with a sapphire crystal, a screw-down crown, and water resistance to 100 metres, on a red rubber strap with a brushed titanium folding buckle. Inside is the self-winding Caliber FM 2536-SC-DT, with a bidirectional winding rotor and around 42 hours of power reserve, showing hours, minutes, seconds, and the date. Titanium keeps a case this size light on the wrist, and the vertically-grained dial reads as bold and technical rather than traditional.

This piece is new, with its box and original papers. At Konesseur, every Franck Muller is authenticated and inspected in Dubai before listing, and the UAE's 5% VAT keeps a watch at this level below European retail. See more Franck Muller or the full watches range to compare.
