This collection is crafted exclusively for the region, underscoring the brand’s recognition of the region’s growing influence and sophisticated appreciation for luxury timepieces. The exclusivity adds a layer of desirability, making these watches not just incredible instruments of time, but also coveted pieces of art and status.

Each watch in the collection showcases Franck Muller’s mastery of intricate dial designs. The dial features large, stylised numerals that are quintessential to the Long Island series, arranged in a playful yet harmonious manner that draws the eye to the center of the watch. The use of a bold green colour and exquisite guilloché patterns further enhances the visual appeal, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow that brings the dial to life.
