About the Vanguard family
Vanguard is Franck Muller's largest and most active collection today, introduced in the mid-2010s as a sportier, more modern take on the tonneau case. It has a bolder, more angular case than the Cintrée Curvex and usually comes on a strap that combines leather or fabric with rubber.
The catalog lists a very large number of references, from small V 35 ladies' quartz models to larger automatics, chronographs and tourbillons, in materials such as steel, titanium, gold, carbon, ceramic and Damascus steel, with themed series such as Racing and Yachting. Because there are so many versions, match the full reference to the case material, dial colour and strap, and check the rubber parts for wear.
