Introduced during the creative surge of the mid-1990s, these distinctive 'tonneau-shaped' watches walk a careful line between classical watchmaking and playful design. Often referred to as the 'Master of Complications' (the title even appears on the caseback), Muller built his reputation on watches that were both technically accomplished and visually unmistakable. ***Please note that certain permits may be required for property release or shipping of this lot due to the endangered or otherwise protected species material (i.e. mother of pearl).
