Recently, in 2018, Franck Muller managed to introduce the grandeur and allure of Long Island onto a series of modern timepieces, aptly named the Franck Muller Long Island Peony. The series is launched in six different variants and the brand’s signature statement still manages to shine through this special collection, in a more feminine and delicate way. The iconic Long Island case now frames eight impressive peony blossoms on the dial, each of them is hand-painted by a professional dial painter before being set into the mother-of-pearl dial. The firm’s dedication is apparent here as the same dial is then spray-painted on the underside to create a subtle colored pattern that brings out the vibrancy of the peonies at the front.

Around and under the falling blossoms sit the Franck Muller’s trademark oversized Arabic indices. These numerals are prized for the same elegance endowed with the limelight of peonies. The diamond-studded options come decorated with a generous 1.92 carats of the precious gem, lending an air of playful elegance and whimsy to this contemporary series.
