Founded in 1992 by Franck Muller and Vartan Sirmakes and known as the "Master of Complications," Franck Muller, the brand, has grown to become synonymous with complex microengineering, original whacky designs, and incredible attention to detail. While tonneau-shaped cases and colorful dials dominate Franck Muller's modern aesthetic, their earlier watches were more traditional round timepieces that featured somewhat classic design motifs, much like this Franck Muller Master Banker 3802. Launched as a watch for the international businessman that is always on the move, the Master Banker collection seeks to provide useful complications that are all operable using just one crown, as can be seen on this ref. 3802, as its silver dial plays home to two independent timezone subdials, one at 12 and 6 o’clock on the dial. Along with these subdials, the ref. 3802 also boasts a date aperture at 3 o’clock, luminous Arabic numerals at 12, 6, and 9 and a regular hour, minutes and seconds trio of hands, with the seconds hand being made of blued steel, and the others made of 18kt yellow gold to match this beauty’s 18kt yellow gold construction. Measuring 37.5mm and featuring a delectable stepped bezel and screw-bar lugs, the ref. 3802 is a stylish timepiece that is just as functional as it is good-looking.

A watch devised to optimize the convenience within a businessman's life, the Master Banker has remained within Franck Muller's catalog, but without the charm of these earlier examples.
