The objective of the deal is to develop “Swiss-made” watches of the highest standards for women and men using the “Roberto Cavalli by Franck Muller” brand name, which will unite the style and distinctive symbols of the Florentine fashion group with the craftsman technique and the precision engineering that has always distinguished the Franck Muller Group.

The Roberto Cavalli by Franck Muller watch collection was studied to respond to the different needs of a clientele that is ever more sophisticated and to compete in the high-quality “premium price” categories with retail prices in the “entry range” of 1,250 euros to 3,000 euros to then go to the more prestigious models in the “core” range from 3,000 to 6,000 euros, and finally jewellery watches in the “image” range whose value will exceed 6,000 euros – a complete collection that is along the lines of the most recent creations of the main fashion and luxury groups.

“I have always been very impressed by the craftsmanship, the quality, the innovation, the style and the creativity of the Franck Muller Group. These are characteristics that have allowed the brand to distinguish itself in the watchmaking sector,” said Roberto Cavalli, Chairman of the Roberto Cavalli Group. “Our two worlds have a lot in common and as a great watch collector I find that just like an evening gown, a watch tells and defines exactly the character and the state of mind of who wears it.”

“Roberto Cavalli is a genuine artist whose source of inspiration comes from his passion for life. His love for fashion combined with his dynamic personality, results in the perfection of his sexy creations. To evoke a deep sensuality throughout his collections, he uses the women’s silhouette as his canvas to reveal true femininity and glamour.” said Franck Muller, co-founder of the Franck Muller Group. “

“We are proud of signing this important co-branding contract for Roberto Cavalli watches. This collaboration will result in an exceptional product incarnating both Roberto Cavalli’s modernity and the special capability of Franck Muller. The new watch collection will be able to respond to the different needs of a clientele that is ever more sophisticate” commented Gianluca Brozzetti, CEO of the Roberto Cavalli Group.

“I am extremely honored in taking part in the union of the two creative worlds of Haute Horlogerie and High Fashion.
