The Story Behind Franc Vila Watches

 

The history of Franc Vila started with a dream. Franc Vila hails from Valencia in eastern Spain, an area not normally associated with watchmaking. However, Franc Vila became fascinated by high-end watches and developed an interest in watchmaking when he saw his father’s stopped automatic watch come to life. His father told him that the watch only ran when in contact with humans.

 

As an adult, Franc Vila began collecting fine watches, fountain pens, and other luxury objects. He dreamed up his ideal watch but was unable to find anything like it. After studying biochemistry, fine arts, and philosophy, Franc Vila decided to fulfill his life mission: to create the watch of his dreams.

 

In the year 2000, Franc Vila began producing innovative watches, drawing from his background in chemistry and the arts. Vila’s first watches were made from stainless steel with dial designs, but they evolved into luxury timepieces. Vila’s passion and creativity have made him one of the top luxury watchmakers in existence today.

 

Characteristics that make Franc Vila’s work so desirable include their aesthetic perfection, attention to detail, and intricate designs. The watches often boast prestigious complications with a unique design, hence the slogan, “Esprit unique”. Franc Vila watches are made in ultra limited series, which ensures their exclusive production.
