FRANCK MULLER VANGUARD SAPPHIRE

Making a great statement about diversity and inclusivity, the Franck Muller Vanguard Sapphire watch is all about color and design. The tonneau shaped watch is crafted in stainless steel and is powered by a manually wound 174-part movement. Key elements of the caliber are specially dipped in a rainbow of colors to create a dramatic impact. By skeletonizing the caliber and using a sapphire crystal and caseback, the drama comes to the forefront. $54,200, available at Feldmar Watch Company in Los Angeles, +1 310 274 8016, franckmuller.com
