Franc Vila: FVt28 Jumping Hours Automatique "Ivy Edition"

By
September 2022

The company Franc Vila is considered quite young by the standards of the watch market, while its rapid development and success are amazing. The brand of the same name, owned by the company, received recognition already two years after its launch - at the Baselworld-2006 exhibition, a collection of branded tourbillons with a mechanism designed and assembled in the Franc Vila laboratories was presented. Watches of the Swiss brand can be easily recognized by the brand name - an unusual shape of the dial and case, reminiscent of an inverted figure eight.
From the very beginning, the company produced models exclusively for men - strong, brutal, appreciating their (and others') time. But at the BaselWord 2010 watch exhibition, the first women's wristwatches were presented.- FVt28 Jumping Hours Automatique "Ivy Edition". The model attracts attention primarily with its unusual dial and spectacular “jumping hour” indication.

At first glance, the FVt28 Jumping Hours Automatique "Ivy Edition" watch from the new Tribute collection seems quite massive, but on a fragile female hand it looks very seductive, and by no means masculine.
Despite the fact that the master's favorite color is black, for female models he preferred a more delicate palette. The watch is released in two versions: with a blue and white strap. In addition to the strap, the versions differ in finishing. In the first case, the steel case and the inner welt of the watch are adorned with 387 diamonds with a total weight of 2.45 carats, 8 sapphires adorn the dial (2 more on the case). The bezel of the white version is encrusted with 91 diamonds with a total weight of 0.7 carats (plus 2 on the case), and 8 more diamonds are comfortably placed in the upper part of the dial.
The second model looks more restrained and "businesslike", while the first is luxurious and even somewhat eccentric - yes, such watches are not for work, but for a social event - just right.

On the dial, you can watch the clock - a window with a jumping hour is at the 12 o'clock position, a minute hand and a second hand, which counts the time on the corresponding dial at the 6 o'clock mark. The dial is protected by a double-sided anti-reflective sapphire crystal.
The watch is equipped with its own automatic caliber FV28, equipped with a gold winding sector, made according to a sketch by Frank Vila. The operation of this mechanism can be observed through the sapphire back glass.
Franc Vila's first women's series is limited to 88 pieces of each version. Based on the interest shown to her by the representatives of the beautiful half of humanity, we can expect that next year we will see new bright ideas of female mechanics.

The combined mother-of-pearl two-level dial is the “protagonist” of the model. In addition to diamonds and sapphires, it is decorated with an elegant pattern of twigs to match the strap.
