The Frederique Constant Classic Moonphase Date Manufacture

The three new editions of Frederique Constant watches have a fresh design and updated technical features, giving the collection a new look. These watches have a 40mm stainless steel case and come in three different dial colors: silver, blue, or green. Each version features a refined sunrayed dial with three silver-colored hands (hour and minute hands are diamond-cut), as well as applied hour markers, showcasing the brand’s expertise in watchmaking.

The three dial colors each offer a different personality: a bright silver-grey, a modern midnight blue, and a bold English green. The dial also has a railway-style minute track around the edge and a window at 6 o’clock that shows two complications: the moonphase and the date. These complications are related, with the moon moving through its phases every 29.5 days. The date is shown by a hand pointing to a scale from 1 to 31 around the edge of the dial. This arrangement creates a poetic connection between the short cycle of the date and the longer cycle of the moon, adding to the watch’s charm.
