Franck Muller Reggie Jackson Collection

Posted 1 year ago


Franck Muller unveiled the Reggie Jackson collection, dedicated to the legendary baseball player and current Yankees advisor Reggie Jackson.

The special gala ceremony was held at the Tourneau Time Machine in New York City where only the VIP customers and carefully selected guests had the honor to attend the unveiling of this limited collection of Reggie Jackson watches. The whole new Franck Muller collection embraces three models: two of them are three-handed timepieces with sweep seconds, and one is a chronograph.



The Center Seconds models are offered in two basic variations. One of them is a limited edition of only 25 pieces, crafted in combination of black and pink gold with silver guilloché dial and irregular big Arabic numerals. Their dial features a cellulose finish with applied Arabic numerals and decorative compass indications. The Center Seconds models are also available as100-pieces edition in titanium with Yankee colors. Chronograph is also designed in the spirit of Yankees, with their emblematic blue color, horizontal stripes and a blue bezel mounted on a titanium case. The hands of these watches are finished with red and blue accents, while the number 4 transforms into the Reggie’s signature number 44.




The Reggie Jackson chronograph utilizes 8900CC self-winding caliber and has a small seconds indicator at 9 o’clock, date at 6 o’clock, and a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock. Available in 25 pieces, this watch retails for $20,300.



“I was really happy that they wanted to create watch in my name. I enjoyed working with everyone at Franck Muller on designing the watches,” says Jackson, who enjoyed a globally recognized 21-year baseball career filled with record-breaking firsts. “They let me give a lot of input into the design, such as the hands, the coloring, the number and even the black-and-gold version. A lot of the athletes and players who are really cool and hip said they would want something black, and Franck Muller understood this.” Reggie Jackson
