About Franck Muller Vanguard

A Branded Residence Concept

Franck Muller Vanguard is a single-tower development in Dubai Marina that pairs London Gate's residential design with the branding of Swiss watchmaker Franck Muller. It is London Gate's second collaboration with the horology house, following an earlier tower, and takes its name and design cues from Franck Muller's Vanguard watch collection, known for departing from the classic round watch face in favor of an angular, sculptural form.

The DLD project record lists a single building comprising 4 basement levels, ground floor, 3 podium levels and 34 floors above, plus a rooftop level, totaling 771 units. Construction started in November 2024 and the project was recorded at roughly 27.7% completion, with handover scheduled for September 2027, positioning it as a notable project for sale in Dubai for buyers considering new residential developments.

Unit Mix and Layouts

The building offers a graduated range of residences: studios from 414 to 483 sq ft, studio plus units from 551 to 674 sq ft, one-bedroom apartments from 779 to 973 sq ft, one-bedroom plus units from 942 to 1,010 sq ft, a two-bedroom plus layout at 1,041 sq ft, and three-bedroom plus residences spanning 1,768 to 1,862 sq ft. This spread gives buyers a choice across 0, 1, 2 and 3-bedroom formats within one tower.

The brochure frames each layout around functional zoning, with dedicated living, kitchen and bedroom sections shown across the studio, one, two and three-bedroom plans, rather than open-plan compression typical of smaller-format towers.

Design Language

The tower's exterior and interior design draw directly from the Franck Muller Vanguard watch line, which the brand describes as a break from traditional round watch cases toward bold, angular forms. That design vocabulary is carried through the building's facade treatment, lobby, lobby lounge, and lift corridors, positioning the tower as a branded-residence product rather than a generic Marina high-rise.

London Gate, headquartered in Dubai since 2014, positions its portfolio around blending London-inspired architectural references with Dubai development standards, and Franck Muller Vanguard is marketed as the company's second flagship project after its debut branded tower.

Amenities and Building Facilities

Resident amenities listed in the brochure include a rooftop pool, rooftop lounge and garden, a gym, a zen room, a co-working space, a lounge, podium-level lounges with landscaping, a running track, and padel courts with an adjoining lounge area. These facilities are distributed across podium and rooftop levels of the single tower.

The amenity set targets a mix of fitness, social and remote-work needs within the building rather than relying on external dubai community facilities, which is typical for standalone towers in dense parts of Dubai Marina.

Investment Case

Branded residences tied to recognized non-real-estate names, such as watchmakers or fashion houses, have carried a resale premium in Dubai's off-plan market, and Franck Muller Vanguard is one of a limited number of Franck Muller-branded residential towers globally. Buyers considering an off-plan purchase here can review general guidance on the process via our off-plan resources and buying property in Dubai guide.

With 771 units across a single 34-storey tower plus podium levels, the project offers scale within one address in a location that has historically maintained strong occupancy and rental demand due to its waterfront position and proximity to Marina-area employment and leisure hubs.

Location

Dubai Marina Connectivity

The brochure places Franck Muller Vanguard in Dubai Marina, built along a roughly 3 km stretch of Gulf shoreline. Quoted drive times from the Marina area include Dubai Marina Mall (3 minutes), Jumeirah Beach Residences (6 minutes), Emirates Golf Club (10 minutes), Media City Amphitheatre (5 minutes), Mall of the Emirates (10 minutes), Palm Jumeirah/West Beach (10 minutes), Dubai Polo Club (17 minutes), and Dubai Mall (20 minutes).

Airport access is quoted at 20 minutes to Dubai International Airport and 22 minutes to Al Maktoum International Airport, positioning the tower within reach of both airports for frequent travelers.

Marina Neighbourhood Character

Dubai Marina is established as a dense, waterfront high-rise district combining residential towers, a marina walk, retail and dining along the promenade, and proximity to Jumeirah Beach Residences. The brochure highlights the area's tourist appeal alongside its suitability as a long-term address for homeowners.

The surrounding district gives residents walkable access to marina-front cafes, retail, and the beach corridor, without needing to rely on a single master-planned community's internal amenities.
