Frederique Constant Unveils The New Classics Moneta Solarmetre

MRSTATELESS Frederique Constant, NEW RELEASES 2026, Dress Watch, Quartz, Solar Powered 0

Frederique Constant expands its elegant Moneta collection with the launch of the new Classics Moneta Solarmetre, a refined dress watch that introduces the brand’s first solar-powered movement. Combining minimalist styling with modern photovoltaic technology, the latest addition to the collection brings together practicality and classic Swiss watchmaking design.

Originally introduced in 2024, the Moneta line quickly became recognizable thanks to its slim profile, clean dial layouts, and signature coin-edge bezel. The new Solarmetre retains those characteristics while adding a movement designed to offer long-term convenience through light-powered autonomy.

Frederique Constant’s First Solar Movement

At the heart of the new watch is the FC-120 solar-powered quartz caliber, developed in partnership with La Joux-Perret. The movement uses photovoltaic technology to transform light into electrical energy through cells positioned beneath the dial. This energy is then stored to power the quartz regulator.

According to Frederique Constant, just one minute of light exposure generates enough energy to keep the watch running for an entire day. When fully charged, the movement can operate autonomously for up to 10 months in complete darkness, offering the practicality and low-maintenance benefits typically associated with solar-powered watches.

The introduction of the FC-120 marks an important step for the Geneva-based manufacture as it enters the growing segment of elegant solar-powered timepieces.

Larger Case With Signature Moneta Details

To accommodate the new movement, Frederique Constant has slightly increased the dimensions of the case. The Classics Moneta Solarmetre now comes in a stainless steel case measuring 39 mm in diameter and 8.52 mm thick, making it larger than previous Moneta models while still maintaining the proportions expected from a modern dress watch.

The polished case preserves the collection’s defining feature: the coin-edge bezel decoration that gives the Moneta its distinctive identity. The slim profile and balanced proportions allow the watch to maintain an elegant wrist presence despite the updated dimensions.

Three Translucent Dial Variants

The new Classics Moneta Solarmetre is available in three dial colors: ice blue, burgundy, and cloud white. Although they appear solid, the dials are actually translucent, allowing light to pass through to the photovoltaic cells positioned underneath.

Frederique Constant also introduces a new grained dial texture to the Moneta collection, adding additional depth and visual character to the minimalist design. The textured surfaces interact beautifully with light while preserving the understated elegance that defines the watch.

Each dial is completed with polished dauphine hands, faceted applied hour markers, and a discreet date window positioned at 3 o’clock, ensuring both refinement and legibility.

Delivered With Two Strap Options

Frederique Constant equips the Classics Moneta Solarmetre with two interchangeable wearing options. Each watch is delivered with both a classic leather strap and a Milanese-style stainless steel bracelet, allowing owners to alternate between a more traditional or contemporary appearance depending on the occasion.

Price and Availability

The new Frederique Constant Classics Moneta Solarmetre is priced at € 1,250 regardless of dial color selection. With its combination of elegant design, slim proportions, and practical solar-powered technology, the latest Moneta offers an attractive entry into the accessible luxury dress watch category.

Smaller, Cleaner, Better: The New Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture

MRSTATELESS Frederique Constant, NEW RELEASES 2026, Diamond-Set, Limited Edition, Watches and Wonders 2026, World Timer 0

At this year’s Watches and Wonders, Frederique Constant unveiled a refined evolution of its in-house worldtimer, focusing on improved proportions, a cleaner dial layout, and enhanced mechanical performance.

A More Compact and Balanced Case

One of the key updates is the reduction in case size to 40 mm, making the watch more versatile and wearable across a wider range of wrists. With a thickness of 12.53 mm and a three-part construction, the case maintains a solid presence while offering balanced proportions suitable for daily wear.

Dial Redesign: Cleaner and More Legible

The dial has been carefully reworked to prioritize clarity and visual balance. By removing the date subdial, the layout becomes more symmetrical and less cluttered, allowing the worldtime display to stand out more clearly. At the center, a raised world map introduces depth, while the applied hour markers positioned above it add an additional layer of dimension. Surrounding this, the city ring and 24-hour scale remain highly legible, ensuring the watch retains its practical functionality while improving overall readability.

Three Distinct Blue-Toned Variants

The collection is presented in three variations, each exploring different shades and finishes of blue. The first core model features a classic sunray-brushed navy dial, where dark blue oceans are paired with grey-toned continents and a matching city ring. This version is delivered on a newly designed five-link stainless steel bracelet, reinforcing its more traditional appeal.

The second core model adopts a more contemporary look, with lighter fumé blue oceans contrasted by taupe continents and a white city disc. This creates a softer and more modern aesthetic, and it is paired with a strap rather than a bracelet.

Completing the lineup is a more luxurious interpretation in pale light blue, distinguished by a gem-set configuration. This limited edition features 70 diamonds set on the bezel, while the hour markers are replaced by 12 diamond indexes, offering a more refined and decorative approach. This version is limited to 88 pieces.

In-House Movement with Extended Performance

At the heart of the watch is the FC-719 automatic caliber, equipped with an in-house worldtimer module composed of 24 components. The movement is finished with traditional decorative techniques such as Côtes de Genève and perlage, reflecting the brand’s attention to detail.

A significant technical improvement comes in the form of an extended power reserve, now reaching 72 hours, a notable increase compared to previous versions. Despite the mechanical upgrades and reduced case size, the watch maintains its user-friendly functionality, with all worldtime adjustments controlled exclusively via the crown.

Pricing and Availability

The two core models are priced at approximately € 4,995, while the gem-set limited edition, restricted to 88 pieces, is priced at around € 7,995.

A New Frederique Constant x Time+Tide Collaboration Debuts The Highlife Onyx Moon

MRSTATELESS Frederique Constant, NEW RELEASES 2025, Integrated Bracelet, Limited Edition, Moon Phase, Onyx Dials, Sport Watch 0

Frederique Constant expands its Highlife line with a new limited edition created in partnership with Time+Tide: the Highlife Moonphase Manufacture Onyx Moon. This model marks several firsts for the Highlife collection, bringing together a refined stone dial, a moon phase complication, and a new bracelet execution for the series—all within the brand’s accessible manufacture philosophy.

A New Direction for the Highlife Collection

Since its introduction in 2020, the Highlife has become Frederique Constant’s modern sports-luxury platform, known for its integrated case design and interchangeable straps. The new Onyx Moon edition introduces an important mechanical update, as the Moonphase Date Manufacture calibre FC-716—previously reserved for the brand’s more classical watches—appears for the first time in a Highlife model.

The watch is housed in a 41 mm stainless steel case that measures approximately 12.50 mm thick and spans 45 mm lug-to-lug, maintaining the collection’s characteristic proportions and its water resistance of 100 metres. While the case architecture remains unchanged, the watch debuts a new five-link Jubilee-style bracelet that combines brushed and polished finishing for a more intricate look while remaining fully compatible with the Highlife quick-change strap system.

Onyx Dial With a Clean, Uncluttered Layout

One of the most distinctive elements of this edition is its onyx stone dial, which replaces the embossed globe pattern commonly associated with the Highlife collection. The deep black surface creates a uniform, light-absorbing backdrop that emphasises the watch’s minimalist design.

Frederique Constant has deliberately removed applied indices and lume, allowing the high-polish and brushed facets of the central hands to stand out against the onyx background. At 6 o’clock, the moonphase display is presented with a black sky and crisp white date numerals. The red number “31” adds a small visual accent that mirrors the Geneve inscription beneath the brand logo at 12 o’clock. The moon itself features a textured surface that gives the display a more realistic representation.

Three-Day Power Reserve Manufacture Movement

Powering the watch is the automatic FC-716 Manufacture calibre, which received a significant upgrade in 2024. Its larger mainspring barrel supplies a power reserve of 72 hours, almost doubling the autonomy of earlier versions of this movement. The calibre retains its moon phase and date functions and features reworked bridges decorated with fan-shaped Côtes de Genève. These details, along with the openworked rotor, are visible through the sapphire caseback and reinforce the watch’s manufacture status.

Three-Strap Set for Versatile Wear

The Highlife Moonphase Manufacture Onyx Moon is delivered with a complete three-strap set. In addition to the stainless steel five-link bracelet, the package includes a black nubuck-style leather strap as well as a black textured rubber strap. Each strap can be swapped instantly thanks to the brand’s integrated quick-release system, allowing the watch to alternate seamlessly between sporty, casual, and more formal looks.

Limited Edition & Availability

The model is limited to 100 pieces worldwide, with 50 units allocated to Frederique Constant and the remaining 50 to Time+Tide. The Highlife Moonphase Manufacture Onyx Moon will be available from today – 12 December 2025 at 6 PM CET at a retail price of € 4,895.

Where Highlife Meets Bamford: A Bold New Chronograph Collaboration

MRSTATELESS Frederique Constant, NEW RELEASES 2025, BAMFORD, Chronograph, Dubai Watch Week, Limited Edition, Titanium 0

Frederique Constant expands its Highlife collection with a striking new collaboration: the Highlife Chronograph Automatic Bamford Special Edition. This limited release unites Frederique Constant’s approach to accessible mechanical watchmaking with the bold design language of Bamford Watch Department. The result is a model that stays true to the Highlife’s technical foundations while presenting an entirely reimagined exterior.

Titanium Case With Crystallised Texture

The watch stands out immediately with its case construction. It measures 41 mm in diameter and 14.62 mm in height, crafted from grade 2 titanium that undergoes a crystallisation heat treatment at 1,200°C before receiving a black DLC finish. This treatment gives the surface a distinctive, uneven texture while preserving the lightweight and corrosion-resistant properties of titanium. A convex sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating protects the front, while rectangular chronograph pushers at 2 and 4 o’clock integrate cleanly into the profile. The screwed caseback carries engravings and features a smoked sapphire window that maintains the watch’s dark, monochromatic aesthetic. Water-resistance is rated at 100 metres.

Monochrome Dial With Turquoise Highlights

The dial reveals the strongest influence from Bamford. It features a matte-black surface arranged in a classic tri-compax layout, with the 30-minute counter positioned at 3 o’clock, the 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock, and the small seconds at 9 o’clock. Applied silver-tone indices and matching hands filled with white luminous material provide clear readability in all lighting conditions. Turquoise accents appear selectively across the dial, most notably on the hands and accents of the subdials, along on a substantial portion of the central chronograph seconds hand. The minute and seconds track around the edge of the dial is printed in white, while turquoise is used again for elements of the tachymeter scale. The emphasis throughout is on strong contrast and functional clarity. To maintain symmetry and visual balance, this special edition does not include a date display.

Powered by the FC-391 Automatic Chronograph Calibre

Inside the watch is the FC-391 calibre, an automatic chronograph movement developed from the reliable Valjoux 7750 base and refined further through Frederique Constant’s collaboration with La Joux-Perret. The movement operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, incorporates 26 jewels, and offers a power reserve of approximately 60 hours. Through the smoked sapphire caseback, the finishing becomes visible, including Côtes de Genève on the bridges and a contrasting gold-tone rotor.

Interchangeable Straps and Limited Edition

The Highlife Chronograph Automatic Bamford Special Edition is delivered with three interchangeable straps, allowing the watch to adapt to different styles and settings. The box includes a black rubber strap for a sporty look, a turquoise rubber strap that reflects the dial’s colour accents, and a black nubuck calf leather strap for a more refined feel. Production is limited to 100 numbered pieces, and the watch is priced at € 4,495.

Frederique Constant Showcases Its Latest Creations Over Lisbon’s Rooftops

Ricardo Amaral Frederique Constant, NEWS 2025, Brand Events, Lisbon, Rooftop 0

A few days ago, Frederique Constant hosted an intimate lunch in Lisbon, set against the stunning backdrop of the Altis Avenida Hotel’s rooftop terrace. Under the warm city light and surrounded by a panoramic view of Lisbon’s skyline, guests were welcomed by Niels Eggerding, CEO of the Geneva-based watchmaker, for an afternoon dedicated to craftsmanship, innovation, and the art of time.

The event served as a perfect occasion to explore the brand’s latest creations, which continue to strengthen Frederique Constant’s reputation for offering Swiss-made luxury with exceptional value.

A Brand with Global Strength — and Iberian Soul

Today, Frederique Constant’s presence spans across the globe, but its strongest markets remain in Europe, which accounts for 39% of total sales, with a particular emphasis on the Iberian Peninsula—Portugal and Spain—where the brand enjoys growing recognition among collectors and enthusiasts alike.

The United States follows closely, representing 23% of total sales. Despite the challenges posed by customs tariffs, Eggerding revealed that demand has continued to rise steadily, a testament to the brand’s appeal and the strength of its distribution network.

Moneta and Manchette: The Stars of the Moment

Among the novelties presented in Lisbon, two models stood out for their remarkable success stories.

The Moneta, a refined timepiece characterized by balanced proportions and timeless elegance, has become a runaway success. Demand for this model has exceeded all expectations, with production struggling to keep pace with orders and stocks being constantly depleted. A new mechanical version, set to debut next year, was quietly hinted at during the event — something enthusiasts will eagerly await.

Equally captivating is the Manchette, a jewelry-style watch launched in 2022 that continues to charm women around the world. Its fusion of horology and jewelry design embodies Frederique Constant’s versatile elegance — a perfect everyday companion that remains one of the brand’s bestsellers.

The Value of Time, the Value of Trust

As Eggerding emphasized during the event, Frederique Constant’s enduring success lies not only in the beauty of its watches but in the trust and loyalty of its customers.

“Many of our clients begin their journey with a quartz watch, then move on to mechanical models, and eventually to our manufacture timepieces,” Eggerding explained. “It’s a natural progression — one that reflects how people grow with the brand.”

This philosophy highlights Frederique Constant’s commitment to long-term relationships and its unique ability to accompany customers through different stages of their watchmaking journey.

A Memorable Afternoon in Lisbon

Between lively conversations, the soft clinking of glasses, and the glow of afternoon light reflecting on polished cases and sapphire crystals, the event perfectly captured the essence of Frederique Constant: refined, sincere, and timeless.

As the afternoon drew to a close, guests left the terrace with a renewed appreciation for the brand’s philosophy — one that continues to blend accessible luxury with authentic Swiss craftsmanship, inviting everyone to experience the beauty of time in motion.

Frederique Constant Moneta Moonphase Adds Gold-Tone Model And Bracelet Option

MRSTATELESS Frederique Constant, NEW RELEASES 2025, Dress Watch, Moon Phase 0

Frederique Constant expands its Classics Moneta Moonphase collection with two elegant new variations, offering refined design and practicality at an accessible price point. The models showcase traditional aesthetics, versatile proportions, and the charm of a moonphase complication, all powered by a reliable quartz movement.

Case Design

The Classics Moneta Moonphase maintains the well-balanced dimensions that define this line: 37 mm in diameter and 7.65 mm in thickness. Slim enough to slip under a cuff, the polished case is available in two finishes: stainless steel for a modern, versatile look, and a yellow gold-tone stainless steel case for a warm, vintage-inspired presence. Both are water-resistant to 50 metres, suitable for everyday wear while remaining unmistakably dress-oriented.

Dial Details

The stainless steel model features a blue sunray dial, paired with faceted applied indices and hand-polished dauphine hands. A moonphase display at six o’clock is framed by a golden ring, and the dial is encircled by a distinctive coined flange, placed beneath the sapphire crystal—a detail that gives the collection its “Moneta” name.

The gold-tone variant comes with a silver sunray dial, complete with case-matching indices and hands. This model marks an absolute debut in the Classics Moneta Moonphase line, standing out for its timeless elegance.

It’s worth noting that the steel model with a blue dial is not entirely new—it was already part of the collection alongside black and silver-dial versions, originally paired with leather straps. The key update here is the introduction of a Milanese mesh bracelet, which gives the watch a fresh, contemporary touch.

Strap and Bracelet Options

The gold-tone version is fitted with a brown leather strap and matching pin buckle, while the steel blue-dial model now arrives on a steel mesh bracelet with quick-release functionality for easy changes. This evolution expands the versatility of the Moneta Moonphase, especially for those who prefer the comfort and look of a bracelet over leather.

Movement

Inside both watches is the Frederique Constant FC-206 quartz calibre, offering up to 60 months of battery life. The movement is housed beneath a solid stainless steel caseback and ensures that the moonphase complication remains a low-maintenance yet elegant feature.

Price and Availability

The Frederique Constant Classics Moneta Moonphase is available now, priced at € 1,295 for both versions.

The Refined Versatility Of The New Frederique Constant Classics Premiere

MRSTATELESS Frederique Constant, NEW RELEASES 2025, Dress Watch, Geneva Watch Days 0

Frederique Constant continues to strengthen its reputation for refined yet accessible watchmaking with the introduction of two new additions to the Classics Premiere line. These elegant unisex dress watches bring a fresh touch to the collection, offering versatility through updated dial colors and the option of a stainless steel bracelet.

A Compact and Balanced Case Design

The Classics Premiere models are presented in a 38.50 mm stainless steel case with a height of 10.67 mm, designed to suit a wide range of wrist sizes. The polished finish enhances the refined character of the watch, while the addition of a five-link stainless steel bracelet introduces a more contemporary aesthetic. The bracelet alternates brushed and polished surfaces, secured with a folding clasp equipped with push-buttons for comfort and practicality.

Art Deco-Inspired Dial

Frederique Constant emphasizes traditional design codes with a dial architecture inspired by Art Deco styling. The latest models are offered in blue and salmon. The salmon version is not entirely new, as it was first introduced in October of last year as part of an exclusive edition for Europe, paired with a leather strap. Now, it returns as a regular production model alongside the blue version, this time matched with the stainless steel bracelet.

Both dials showcase a sector-style layout that plays with textures and depth. A wide circular-brushed chapter ring carries applied Breguet-style Arabic numerals, framed by two railroad tracks for precision. Moving inward, the recessed center section features a matte grained texture that creates a striking contrast with the outer ring. The polished open-tipped hands, also inspired by Breguet, complement the applied numerals and ensure legibility while maintaining the watch’s elegant appearance.

Movement and Performance

Through the sapphire caseback, the calibre FC-301 is on display. This automatic movement is based on the La Joux-Perret G100, known for its reliability and solid performance. One of its key advantages is the 68-hour power reserve, a significant improvement compared to the industry standard in this price segment.

Versatility in Style

By combining the classical case design with the new stainless steel bracelet, the Classics Premiere achieves a balance between traditional elegance and modern wearability. The bracelet option makes these models less formal than their leather-strap predecessors, broadening their appeal for everyday use as well as dress occasions.

Availability and Price

Both the blue and salmon dial Classics Premiere models are now part of the permanent Frederique Constant collection. They are priced at € 2,095, continuing the brand’s philosophy of delivering accessible luxury.

A Closer Look At The 2025 Frederique Constant Vintage Rally Healey Collection

MRSTATELESS Frederique Constant, NEW RELEASES 2025, Chronograph, Limited Edition 0

Since 2004, Frederique Constant has celebrated the legacy of British motorsport through its long-standing collaboration with Austin-Healey. For 2025, the brand expands its Classics Vintage Rally Healey line with three distinct models, each drawing inspiration from iconic Healey cars. The new collection includes one core automatic model and two limited editions, offering variety in size, functionality, and dial execution—all unified by a classic motorsport aesthetic.

Classics Vintage Rally Healey Automatic 40mm

This automatic model returns with a 40 mm stainless steel case and a slim 10.16 mm profile. The standout feature is its matte British Racing Green dial, a shade linked to the Austin-Healey 100S. A white minute and seconds track circles the dial’s edge, with the Healey logo positioned just above 6 o’clock.

The watch uses applied indices and polished hour and minute hands filled with white luminous material for visibility in low light. A bright red central seconds hand adds a touch of contrast. The dial is protected by a convex sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating. Around the back, a closed caseback features an engraving that commemorates the Healey heritage.

Inside, the FC-301 automatic movement drives the time-only display. Based on the La Joux-Perret G100, it operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and offers a 38-hour power reserve. A dark brown calfskin strap with white stitching completes the package. This model is not limited and is priced at € 1,695.

Classics Vintage Rally Healey Automatic 36mm (Limited Edition)

Offering a more compact option, the 36 mm version comes in at 9.85 mm thick and features a sunray-brushed “Healey Blue” dial—a hue inspired by the Austin-Healey 3000 MKII BM7. The dial layout includes applied markers, luminous hands, an Arabic numeral at 12 o’clock, and a matching Healey logo at 6 o’clock. A discreet date window is placed at the bottom of the dial, integrated without disrupting the symmetry.

It also features a convex sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment and a solid caseback engraved with Healey imagery. This watch is powered by the FC-303 calibre, an automatic movement based on the Sellita SW200-1, offering central hour, minute, seconds, and date functions. The movement operates at 4Hz with a 38-hour power reserve.

Fitted with a navy blue calf leather strap featuring contrast stitching, the 36mm model is limited to 1,888 pieces and is priced at € 1,495.

Classics Vintage Rally Healey Chronograph Automatic 42 mm (Limited Edition)

Completing the trio is a chronograph variant housed in a larger 42 mm stainless steel case, measuring 14.45 mm in height. Its sunray Healey blue dial is paired with two dark blue subdials: a 60-minute counter at 3 o’clock and a small seconds display at 9 o’clock. Red accents mark the chronograph’s central seconds hand and 60-minute counter hand, while the sub-seconds hand remains silver.

The layout includes luminous hour and minute hands, applied indices, and an Arabic numeral at 12 o’clock. Around the perimeter, a blue chronograph seconds track enhances legibility. The Healey logo appears once again at 6 o’clock.

Unlike the other two models, this chronograph features an exhibition caseback, offering a view of the automatic FC-397 calibre. Based on the Valjoux 7750, this movement operates at 28,800vph and delivers a 48-hour power reserve. It supports chronograph timing along with central hours and minutes, but omits the date function for a cleaner dial.

The chronograph is paired with a navy leather strap and off-white stitching and is limited to 1,888 pieces. It is available at a retail price of € 3,395.

Closing Thoughts

Each piece in the 2025 Frederique Constant Classics Vintage Rally Healey collection captures a distinct aspect of the golden era of British motorsport, offering multiple case sizes, colorways, and mechanical features. While united by a common heritage, these three watches provide unique interpretations for collectors and vintage car enthusiasts alike.

A Symphony In White Gold And Blue: The New Frederique Constant Tourbillon

MRSTATELESS Frederique Constant, NEW RELEASES 2025, Limited Edition, Mother-of-Pearl, Tourbillon 0

Frederique Constant adds a refined new model to its Classic Tourbillon Manufacture collection—a limited edition that brings the shimmering depth of blue mother-of-pearl to the forefront. With only 36 pieces produced, this timepiece showcases the brand’s dedication to in-house craftsmanship and elegant watchmaking.

White Gold Case and Classic Proportions

The watch is housed in an 18K polished white gold case, measuring 39 mm in diameter and 10.99 mm thick. These proportions reflect a classical approach to design, intended to sit comfortably on the wrist while maintaining a sophisticated profile. Both the front and back of the case are fitted with sapphire crystals, allowing an uninterrupted view of the movement and its standout complication.

Mother-of-Pearl Dial and Applied Elements

The highlight of this edition is the dial, crafted from natural blue-tinted mother-of-pearl. Its subtle iridescence creates a dynamic play of light, giving the watch a unique visual character. The layout remains clean and symmetrical, with diamond-cut applied indices and hand-polished leaf-style hands. There is no luminescent material, reinforcing the watch’s formal and elegant identity.

At 6 o’clock, the large one-minute tourbillon takes center stage. Integrated into the dial, the tourbillon cage also carries a small seconds indicator, further balancing form and function.

In-House Automatic Movement

Inside the watch is the calibre FC-980-4, a manufacture automatic movement featuring a high-frequency tourbillon beating at 4Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour). The tourbillon mechanism includes a silicon escapement and anchor, enhancing resistance to magnetic interference and reducing long-term maintenance requirements. The movement is wound via a central rotor and offers a power reserve of approximately 38 hours.

Strap and Availability

The watch is paired with a matching light blue alligator leather strap, secured with a white gold folding clasp. Limited to 36 individually numbered pieces, the Classic Tourbillon Manufacture Blue Mother-of-Pearl edition is priced at € 35,995.
