Franck Muller Skafander 43mm Titanium Blue SKT 43 SC DT ACBR ACNR NR N019

The Franck Muller Skafander 43mm is the brand's dive watch, and it takes Franck Muller's signature tonneau shape, the curved barrel case it is best known for, and reworks it into a sports diver. This one is in titanium, which keeps a case this size light on the wrist, with a blue dial. 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 rubber strap with a brushed titanium folding buckle. Inside is the self-winding Caliber FM 2536-SC-DT, a movement with a bidirectional winding rotor and around 42 hours of power reserve, showing hours, minutes, seconds, and the date. The dial has Franck Muller's vertical graining, so it 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.
