Yacht rock is one of the Time+Tide office's favourite genres of smooth, easy listening music, so it should come as no surprise that we're more than willing to get behind the Franck Muller Vanguard S6 Yachting, which see's the brand's typical large, curvex case in mirror-like gold holds well, less watch than you'd expect thanks to the heavily skeletonised movement inside. the bridges share the same stylish, angular geometry that we've seen on other Vanguard models. Here the bridges are in blue, which provides some beautiful contrast with the gold. Things start getting nautical when it comes to the finer details, with the compass points on the outer chapter ring and a seconds hand' at six that resembles a ye olde wind rose. All told this is a cool, very Franck Muller watch, big bold and with a distinctively fun personality.
