Franck Muller Aeternitas Tower: dates and buyer checks
Check Aeternitas Tower's Dubai Marina location, 40/60 plan and conflicting 2027 handover dates before reviewing a unit offer.
Franck Muller Aeternitas Tower is London Gate's branded residential project in Dubai Marina. The developer advertises a 40/60 payment plan and anticipated handover in Q2 2027, but Franck Muller's own site says late 2027. Ask London Gate to explain that difference in writing before you reserve a home.

What exactly is Aeternitas Tower?
London Gate lists apartments with one to three bedrooms, four-bedroom Sky Villas and a five-bedroom Sky Mansion. It describes a 106-storey building, roughly 449 metres tall. Franck Muller's announcement uses 450 metres. These are the publishers' design descriptions; neither figure here is a measurement of a finished building.
London Gate is the developer named in the project material. Franck Muller is the watch brand behind the collaboration. Ask who signs as seller and who will provide the advertised services.

When is handover supposed to happen?
There are two different published answers:
| Publisher | Handover wording checked on 10 November 2026 | What to ask |
|---|---|---|
| London Gate project page | Anticipated Q2 2027 | Does your draft agreement use this period? |
| Franck Muller tower update | Planned late 2027 | Has the timetable changed, and when was this update issued? |
Ask for the completion clause, permitted extensions and notice procedure in your draft sale and purchase agreement. Keep the developer's explanation of the two dates with it.
Franck Muller's update also describes superstructure progress, without a visible publication date. Ask when the work was measured. That figure won't tell you when your apartment will be ready to inspect.

How does the 40/60 plan affect your budget?
The headline split is 40% during construction and 60% on handover. It doesn't show every instalment date or the complete cost of buying.
Hypothetical example: at an assumed price of AED 5,000,000, the split would be AED 5,000,000 × 40% = AED 2,000,000 during construction and × 60% = AED 3,000,000 on handover. This is arithmetic, not a quoted price or an available unit.
Request the full dated schedule and an itemised cost sheet showing what costs extra and who receives each payment. If you plan to borrow for handover, ask your lender what must happen before it releases the money.

Which services are included in the price?
The developer advertises housekeeping, branded concierge and valet, alongside leisure facilities. Ask for the service specification: what the annual charge covers, what is charged per use and who operates it. Use the community-fee worksheet to keep recurring costs separate from the purchase price.
Watch out: a photograph of a furnished interior doesn't answer whether your unit includes furniture. Request the furnishings and finishes schedule for the exact apartment. Check the floor, orientation and area breakdown against its own plan.

How do you check the project with DLD?
Open DLD Project Status Enquiry with the project name, project number or land number. Compare the result with the seller's documents. If the match is unclear, ask DLD on 8004488.

What isn't published?
Your unit's price, complete charges and the reason for the conflicting handover dates remain unconfirmed. On 10 November 2026, searches covered London Gate, Franck Muller, DLD for “Franck Muller Aeternitas”, and construction news. No matching DLD project result was obtained. Ask for its registered reference and a written explanation of the dates.
What else do buyers ask?
Is the watch brand the company selling the apartment?
The announcements describe a collaboration with London Gate. Read the seller's legal name in your agreement and ask which obligations, if any, the brand undertakes. The name on the building won't answer that contractual question.
Can you still buy a unit?
Ask for a dated availability statement. Franck Muller's update says the tower sold out, while London Gate still displays project information. Establish whether an offer is a developer sale or a resale, and who can sign it.
Is there a confirmed annual service charge?
No unit-specific charge is confirmed here. Request its amount, area basis, approval status and included services. Ask separately about optional concierge or housekeeping charges before comparing annual ownership costs.
Comparing developers? Read the Condor project guide, or share the Russian-language Sobha guide with a co-buyer considering that developer. Ask London Gate to put the date explanation, payment schedule and service inclusions in your unit's purchase file.
