A very special and personal timepiece from Franck Muller to the present owner, this 3-time zone watch with unique dial celebrates Michael Schumacher’s glittering career and his third consecutive Formula 1 win for Ferrari in 2002.

The dial is spectacular and absolutely eye-catching, the numeral “1” is coloured red, the Ferrari emblem is featured on the third time zone dial, a Formula 1 Ferrari and “World Champion” at 12 o’clock and “Michael Schumacher” with his facsimile signature at 6 o’clock. The back of the case is engraved with the present owner’s name and “En homage à ton succès Amitiés” (In tribute to your success and friendship) along with Franck Muller’s facsimile signature.

Michael Schumacher
Competed in Formula One for Jordan, Benetton, Ferrari, and Mercedes. He holds a joint-record seven World Drivers’ Championship titles (tied with Lewis Hamilton) and, at the time of his retirement from the sport in 2012, he held the records for the most wins (91), pole positions (68), and podium finishes (155)—which have since been broken by Hamilton although Schumacher maintains the record for the most fastest laps (77), among others.

Schumacher moved to the Ferrari team in 1996, during his first years at the team, he lost out on the title in the final race of the season in 1997 and 1998 and suffered a broken leg from a brake failure in 1999. He and Ferrari won five consecutive titles from 2000 to 2004, including unprecedented sixth and seventh titles, breaking several records. After finishing third in 2005 and second in 2006, Schumacher retired from the sport, although he later made a brief return with Mercedes from 2010 to 2012.
