Long Island Crazy Hours, 1200CH, White Gold, 2018

Product Description

The Franck Muller Crazy Hours Long Island Ref. 1200 CH is a playful rethink on tradition - a watch that moves at its own pace and asks you to follow. In its signature rectangular case (roughly 32 × 45 mm), the hour numerals are intentionally scattered. But with every 60th minute, the jumping hour mechanism catapults the hour hand to the next correct position, while the minutes hand proceeds normally. It’s a complication that confounds logic - but invites a smile.

Available in precious metals like white, rose, or yellow gold, the Long Island frames this ingenuity with elegance. Despite the visual jigsaw of its dial, the clean Arabic indices, polished hands, and sapphire crystal maintain clarity. On the wrist, the 12 mm case feels measured - not thin, but far from heavy - wearable art, not gadgetry.

This is a watch for those who value surprise over routine. It speaks of a lighter side of horology, yet doesn’t compromise on finish or refinement. The automatic movement pulses beneath - a quiet engine for a watch designed to encourage pause.

If you’re drawn to timepieces with personality and precision, the Crazy Hours Long Island Ref. 1200 CH is a rare moment in motion. 

Our 2018 example is supplied in excellent condition as a full set, complete with a 2018 dated papers, booklets, spare leather straps and original box.
