Frederique Constant Unveils Elegant Green Classic Tourbillon Manufacture
Frederique Constant begins 2025 with the unveiling of the latest addition to its distinguished Manufacture Classic Tourbillon collection. This new release features a striking sunburst green dial, adding a fresh aesthetic to a line that already boasts five exquisite variants. Among its predecessors are models crafted in white gold with an aventurine dial, platinum with a meteorite dial, elegant rose gold, and two sophisticated versions in stainless steel.
The new Manufacture Classic Tourbillon stays true to its timeless design ethos, housed in a polished stainless steel case measuring 39mm in diameter and 10.99mm in thickness. Its classic round silhouette is complemented by a sapphire crystal, a smooth bezel, and a signature onion-shaped crown positioned at 3 o’clock. The open case back reveals the intricate craftsmanship of the movement, while a water resistance rating of up to 50 meters ensures both style and functionality.
The vibrant British racing green dial stands out with its radiant sunray finish, offering a refined backdrop for the applied diamond-cut indexes and two spear-shaped central hands. At 6 o’clock, the 60-second Tourbillon takes center stage, showcasing the brand’s mastery in watchmaking. The elegant composition is completed with Frederique Constant’s iconic lettering at the 12 o’clock position in crisp white.
Powering the timepiece is the in-house automatic Caliber FC-980-4. This meticulously crafted movement, comprised of 188 components, operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and delivers a power reserve of up to 38 hours. The precision and complexity of the movement underscore Frederique Constant’s dedication to horological excellence.
Adding to its appeal, the watch is paired with a luxurious green alligator leather strap, complete with matching stitching and a stainless steel folding clasp. This harmonious design element further enhances the watch’s sophisticated presence on the wrist.
Limited to just 150 numbered pieces, the new Manufacture Classic Tourbillon is priced at €15,550, aligning with the pricing of the other stainless steel models in the collection. This exclusive release exemplifies Frederique Constant’s commitment to blending tradition, innovation, and elegance, making it a compelling choice for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
