After a very successful model that paid tribute to one of the most important jazz figures of all time, Chet Baker,Franck Muller Replica next in line of watches that pay homage to jazzy tunes is the Franck Muller Replica Limited Edition that celebrates the exceptional talents of one of America's finest jazz pianist and composer.
Franck Muller Replica (1917-1982) was one of the greatest jazz musicians of all time and one of the guiding lights of modern jazz. He was also one of the first creators of modern jazz and bebop. Monk had a unique improvisational style and he's remembered in particular for the use of dissonance in his music.
He made numerous compositions that have become jazz standards, including "Round Midnight," "Ruby, My Dear," "Blue Monk," "In Walked Bud," and "Well, You Needn't". "Round Midnight" from 1944 has become the most recorded jazz standard composed by a jazz musician.
Monk is the second-most recorded jazz composer in the world after Duke Ellington. Also, he is one of five jazz musicians to have been featured on the cover of Time magazine (after Louis Armstrong, Dave Brubeck, and Duke Ellington,U-boat replica watches and before Wynton Marsalis).

This novelty celebrates Monk's distinctive style with the uncommon arrangement of 11 minute markers between the 10 and 12-hour markers, which is a nod to his dissonant technique.
The new Franck Muller Replica watch is tooled with Franck Muller Replica caliber 733 automatic movement, which is based on SW200. Its case is polished and shielded with anti-reflective sapphire crystals. The water resistance is assured down to 30 meters (100 feet).
