Dubai, UAE — Premium real estate developer London Gate and Swiss luxury watchmaker Franck Muller have announced significant construction milestones on their landmark Dubai projects — Aeternitas and Vanguard — as both developments move closer to completion. The two brands are also finalising plans for their third branded tower, reflecting the deepening of their partnership and Dubai’s growing prominence in the global branded residence sector.
Aeternitas, The World’s Tallest Residential Tower
London Gate confirmed that its debut project, Aeternitas, billed as the world’s tallest residential tower, has reached the 75th floor, with its substructure 100% complete and superstructure over 70% finished. The tower is on schedule for handover in Q4 2027.
The project sold out within three months of its launch, underscoring sustained investor appetite for branded ultra-luxury properties in Dubai. Aeternitas represents a convergence of architectural precision, horological artistry, and luxury craftsmanship, positioning itself as one of Dubai’s most distinctive towers.
“Our partnership with Franck Muller grows stronger with every project. These construction milestones reflect our shared commitment to excellence. From Aeternitas reaching its 75th floor to Vanguard’s steady progress, we’re equally excited about our upcoming announcement,” said Eman Taha, CEO of London Gate.
“Together, we’re creating a legacy of branded residences that blend Swiss precision with Dubai’s dynamic skyline and shaping the future of luxury living,” he added.
Vanguard Fully Sold Out, On Track for Q3 2027 Handover
The partnership’s second collaboration, Vanguard, located in the heart of Dubai Marina, has also achieved strong progress. Construction has reached the 18th floor, with handover scheduled for Q3 2027.

Like Aeternitas, Vanguard has been fully sold out, reflecting strong demand for high-end branded developments that combine design sophistication and lifestyle exclusivity.
London Gate and Franck Muller said Vanguard will showcase timeless elegance and contemporary refinement, with interiors and façade elements reflecting the brands’ shared design language of precision, innovation, and craftsmanship.
Third Branded Tower to Be Unveiled Soon
Building on the success of Aeternitas and Vanguard, both companies are finalising details for their third branded tower, which is expected to be unveiled soon.
“When we first entered the real estate world, it was an exciting venture into uncharted territory. Now, it’s become a core part of Franck Muller’s long-term vision, thanks to our partnership with London Gate,” said Erol Baliyan, Managing Director of Franck Muller.
“The progress we’re seeing on both projects goes beyond construction timelines — it reflects how well our values align around craftsmanship, innovation, and creating something timeless. Dubai has proven to be the ideal setting for this collaboration to grow and push boundaries,” he added.
Baliyan emphasized that every Franck Muller-branded residence is a fusion of Swiss precision and architectural innovation, representing two legacies — watchmaking mastery and luxury real estate design — merging into one timeless expression.
Redefining Branded Luxury in Dubai’s Skyline
The London Gate–Franck Muller collaboration has quickly established itself as one of Dubai’s most recognizable partnerships in the branded residence market. Combining London Gate’s expertise in transforming Dubai’s skyline with Franck Muller’s horological artistry, the duo is pushing boundaries in both design and construction execution.

“Every Franck Muller-branded residence represents a unique fusion of two distinct legacies coming together,” London Gate said in a statement. “These are not just buildings but living expressions of craftsmanship and artistry.”
With Aeternitas and Vanguard both on track for timely delivery, the partnership signals Dubai’s growing maturity as a global hub for branded residences, an asset class now contributing significantly to the city’s luxury property segment.
Perspective for Indian Investors
For Indian investors, the Aeternitas and Vanguard branded residences highlight Dubai’s expanding opportunities in the ultra-luxury real estate market, which continues to outperform global peers in terms of returns and long-term value.
The branded residence segment in Dubai has shown average price premiums of 20–30% over non-branded properties, driven by brand reputation, service quality, and limited supply. For Indian HNWIs seeking portfolio diversification, these developments offer both high appreciation potential and rental yield stability.
Dubai’s 0% property tax, rupee-dirham stability, and developer-backed payment plans also provide structured entry points for investors seeking exposure to premium real estate aligned with international design and service standards.
With Aeternitas positioning itself as the world’s tallest residential tower and Vanguard anchoring Dubai Marina’s luxury cluster, the two projects together present distinct long-term investment potential within Dubai’s rapidly maturing high-end market.
