The FRANC VILA FERRARI Sport Chronograph is a remarkably rare concept watch designed & engineered by the contemporary horological master, Franc Vila!
GOOD-TO-KNOW: FRANC VILA is a Spanish horologist with over 20 years experience in luxury watchmaking. The aesthetic cobra case, formally called the "Esprit Unique", is one of his first innovations in watchmaking design & is characteristic of the FRANC VILA line of luxury watches.
