Swiss luxury watch manufacturer Franck Muller and real estate developer London Gate are partnering on the 450 meter-tall building.
Dubai is set to add another towering figure to its skyline. The Aeternitas Tower, officially unveiled at a launch event last week, will be the world’s tallest residential clock tower at a staggering 450 meters tall — more than four times the height of London’s Big Ben, and just 22 meters short of the world’s tallest residential building, the Central Park Tower in New York City.
Aside from the striking clock face , the watchmaker will infuse its design ethos throughout the residence, said Baliyan. He highlights luxury materials like brushed and polished metals, that will be contrasted with marble surfaces, textured fabrics and bold colors. Meanwhile, in the lobby and reception, the signature oblong face of the brand’s Curvex watch is represented with curved walls, archways, and oval furnishings.
