Opt in for HF 2024 Opt in for HF 2024The Beauty of the Perpetual Calendar - Frederique Constant
Frederique Constant Perpetual Calendar
Back in 2016, Frederique Constant introduced new mechanical excellence to its collection with its first in-house Perpetual Calendar, the FC-775 calibre. The Brand is one of the very few to be able to design, assemble and test its own timepieces internally, within its own Geneva-based manufacture.
Once adjusted, this highly sophisticated mechanism shouldn't require any manual correction before 400 years, but as there is an exception in the Gregorian Calendar, the watch will need to be adjusted on March 1st 2100.
Guided by the Brand’s high-skilled watchmakers, each participant will have unique opportunity to explore the caliber in details, and go through the essential process of assembly.
Frederique Constant
Founded in 1988, Frederique Constant is a Swiss watchmaking manufacture based in Geneva. In 2023, as it celebrates its 35th anniversary, the Brand continues to showcase its constantly advancing watchmaking expertise as it pursues its aim: providing Swiss Made luxury watches at fair prices.
Today Frederique Constant can proudly offer a range of quartz and mechanical models – and most importantly, a collection of 31 calibers designed, developed and assembled in its own Manufacture at Plan-les-Ouates, Geneva. These movements include Tourbillon, Perpetual Calendar and Flyback Chronograph complications, along with the Monolithic, a type of escapement never before seen in watchmaking made out of a single piece of silicon, beating at a rate of 40Hz.
