Designed to embody the best that the life, sea and land have to offer, TechnoMarine is an expression of Franck's experiences both luxurious and adventurous. Launched in St. Tropez, France at the tail end of 1997, the TechnoMarine watch line began with one elegantly designed watch - a stainless steel chronograph with a translucent plastic band called the Raft. Innovative in design and superior in craftsmanship, the TechnoMarine Raft sold over 50,000 units during its first year in production.
