UAE’s premium real estate developer and Franck Muller, the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer, have unveiled the iconic Franck Muller Aeternitas in a grand event. This spectacular architectural marvel first gained attention by becoming the world’s tallest branded residential clocktower. Standing nearly 1,500 feet tall with 106 floors, the project, situated in Dubai Marina, boasts a sales value estimated at over $550 million. Just 22 meters shorter than the world’s tallest residential building, the Central Park Tower in New York, this surreal edifice launched with a collection of 649 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, as well as duplexes called Sky Mansions and Sky Villas, spread over 106 floors.

”Depending on the apartment you buy – entry-level, mid-level, and then expensive – we’re going to do a three-segment depending on which apartment you’re going to get, and it will be gifted at the handover,” Baliyan told The National. A very important part of the tower is the large clock, measuring 40 meters by 30 meters. The masterpiece will be built in Germany and will be the second biggest clock tower, after the clock tower in Makkah. The dial is fashioned to look the same as the legendary Long Island model.
“The idea is to show the time, and at that magnitude, it’s going to be a working clock. It will be visible from five or six kilometers on any clear day with proper lighting,” he added. “As a brand, with our partner London Gate, we’re going to assure the quality and design in the building because, when you bring a brand, you need to ensure that you maintain the brand quality and image. It’s going to be the first one, and obviously, as a branded residence, we’re going to have the amenities – all that comes with a high-end luxury branded tower.”
