Perfect for a smart city dinner or gallery opening, this Franck Muller Cintrée Curvex 25mm lends understated glamour to tailored looks, transitioning effortlessly from office hours to evening plans.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the size and case details of the Cintrée Curvex Ref. 1752QZ? A: This is the petit Cintrée Curvex size, approximately 25 mm wide by 35 mm long with a curved tonneau case and a sapphire crystal. The shape hugs the wrist and wears compact; please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact figures.
Q: Is it water resistant and can I swim or shower with it? A: It is rated to 30 metres (3 ATM), which is suitable for light splashes and rain. It is not designed for swimming, showering, or submersion. If the watch is exposed to water, ensure the crown is fully pushed in and have the seals checked periodically.
Q: What movement does it use and how long does the battery last? A: It features a Swiss quartz movement. Typical battery life is around 3–4 years depending on use. Have battery replacements done by a qualified watchmaker, with gaskets resealed and a pressure test performed afterwards to maintain water resistance.
Q: How accurate is the timekeeping? A: Standard Swiss quartz movements are typically accurate to within about ±15 seconds per month in normal conditions, offering excellent everyday precision.
Q: What is included with this watch? A: This listing is described as a full set. The items included are those shown in the product information; for this piece, that includes the original box and outer box. If documents or other items are included, they will be listed there—if it is not listed, it is not included.
Q: Will it fit my wrist, and can the bracelet be resized? A: It is currently set to fit a 16 cm wrist or smaller and comes with 3 extra links. Any competent watchmaker can add or remove links to achieve your preferred fit—please contact us if you would like guidance on sizing.
Q: The serial number is illegible—does that affect the watch? A: No. External engravings can soften over time on pre-owned pieces and this does not affect function. Each item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our experts, and a professional watchmaker can still service the watch based on its reference and movement details.
Q: What are the dial and material details? A: Stainless-steel case and bracelet, silver guilloché dial with black Arabic numerals, blued-steel hands, and a crown set with a sapphire cabochon under a curved sapphire crystal. Please see product information for the complete specification.
Q: How should I care for it day to day? A: Avoid swimming, steam, and chemicals (including perfume) and wipe the watch with a soft dry cloth after wear. Store it in a dry place. For longevity, have the seals checked during each battery change and consider a routine service for a quartz watch roughly every 4–5 years or sooner if you notice issues.
Q: Is this size considered a women’s model? A: The 25 mm Cintrée Curvex is typically marketed as a ladies’ size, though the elegant tonneau design is timeless and can be worn by anyone who prefers a compact case.
