Swiss watchmaker Franck Muller and London Gate, a premier real estate developer in the United Arab Emirates, have announced a new partnership, the Franck Muller Aeternitas Tower, marking the firm’s first entry into the real estate market.
At 450 metres, London Gate’s new development at Dubai Marina is poised to become the world’s tallest residential clock tower and the tallest branded residential tower. It promises to redefine the Dubai skyline and set a global benchmark for luxurious living with stunning vistas.
The residential development is scheduled for an official unveiling in January 2024, with a resident handover by 2026.

Eman Taha, CEO of London Gate, says: “After our debut in the UAE real estate market, with our sold-out projects Maya V and Nadine I&II, we are now thrilled to unveil our masterpiece in collaboration with iconic watchmaker Franck Muller. With our latest project, where architectural opulence meets timeless luxury – we bring Franck Muller’s first-ever branded residences.
“With this partnership, we aim to reinstate the standards of sophistication and elegance, creating a living experience that reflects the brand values and vision of both London Gate and Franck Muller.
