About the Frederique Constant Manufacture Collection

In 2004, Frederique Constant marked a significant milestone by introducing their first in-house calibre, officially becoming a “Manufacture.” This achievement allowed the brand to control every aspect of watchmaking, from development to assembly. Since then, the Manufacture collection has expanded to include 31 in-house calibres. Over the years, the collection has continually pushed the boundaries of traditional watchmaking, demonstrating the brand’s dedication to excellence and advancement in the industry.

Design Innovations

The 2004 Manufacture calibre FC-910 is notable for its unique balance wheel bridge placement at six o'clock, enhancing the Open Heart dial's visual appeal. This innovative approach continued with the 2008 Tourbillon Manufacture, which features a rotating tourbillon within the Heart Beat aperture, combining traditional design with advanced complications. The 2012 Classics Worldtimer exemplifies the brand's dedication to both form and function with its 42mm polished case, convex sapphire crystal, and textured world-map dial. The 2016 Manufacture Perpetual Calendar, available in both the elegant Classics and Highlife barrel-shaped case, merges classic charm with sophisticated complications. The 2021 Slimline Monolithic presents a sleek design with Roman numerals and Breguet hands.

Craftsmanship

Frederique Constant's innovations span several key models. The 2004 calibre FC-910 introduced a unique balance wheel bridge, while the 2007 calibre FC-935 was their first self-winding movement using non-magnetic silicon. In 2008, the Tourbillon Manufacture with the Calibre FC-980 combined a silicon escapement, a day-night indicator, and a rotating tourbillon. The 2012 Classics WorldTimer, powered by the calibre FC-718, offered world-time functionality with a single crown adjustment. Meanwhile, the 2017 Flyback Chronograph Manufacture introduced the calibre FC-760 with a star-shaped column wheel and unique swivelling component. Building up to this, The 2021 Slimline Monolithic advanced watchmaking with its integrated Monolithic oscillator.

Replacing the previous FC-710 calibre, this upgrade extends the power reserve from 38 to an impressive 72 hours (three days), providing greater autonomy for wearers. The refined movement architecture includes redesigned bridges to house the larger barrel, offering improved energy efficiency. Each bridge is meticulously adorned with circular graining and elegant Côtes de Genève.
