Our take on the Franck Muller Vanguard Crazy Hours Watch

The Vanguard Crazy Hours is Franck Muller's signature trick watch: the numerals sit scrambled around the dial, and the hour hand jumps to the next correct number rather than sweeping past the wrong ones. This version pairs a titanium case with a yellow dial, sapphire crystal, leather strap and an automatic movement with a 48-hour power reserve and a date display. It is a statement piece for collectors who want a conversation starter rather than a tool watch. Against conventional luxury sports watches it trades legibility and everyday robustness for the jumping-hour complication and Franck Muller's bold tonneau styling.

Questions and answers

How does the Crazy Hours movement work?
The hour hand jumps in a single step to the next numeral instead of sweeping through the scrambled numbers. The minutes run normally, so you read minutes conventionally and take the hour from whichever number the hand points to.
Is it safe to swim in?
No. Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM (30 m), which covers splashes and rain only. Keep it away from swimming, showering and the leather strap getting soaked.
How big does it wear?
The Vanguard case is a large tonneau shape, so it sits prominently even though titanium keeps the weight down. Try it on if you have a smaller wrist.
What is the power reserve?
About 48 hours when fully wound. If you leave it off for a weekend it will likely still be running on Monday.
Does it have a date?
Yes, a date display is part of the movement alongside the Crazy Hours indication.
Is servicing straightforward?
The jumping-hour module is specialist, so use an authorized Franck Muller service center rather than a general watchmaker.
Where is the Franck Muller Vanguard Crazy Hours Watch cheapest?
At Watchmaxx, for $11,700.00, as of our latest check.
