About the Frederique Constant Vintage Rally Collection
The Frédérique Constant Vintage Rally collection commemorates over 20 years of work with the legendary Austin-Healey 100S. This collection debuted in 2004 and commemorates the golden age of motor racing by combining the brand’s artistry with the everlasting grace of 1950s British roadsters. Over time, the collection has developed, retaining its old appeal while incorporating current improvements. Each watch conveys the essence of vintage racing, paying homage to the iconic sports car with exquisite design.
Timeless Design with Modern Flair
The Vintage Rally line's latest variants include models with stainless steel and rose gold-plated casings in different polished and matte finishes. The dials are available in a variety of colours, including British Racing Green, midnight navy blue, and elegant grey. The grey dial variant is especially striking, with its off-centre seconds subdial and bright red hand that offers a modern twist to the vintage-inspired design. The oversized numerals at 12 and six are signature elements of the collection, anchoring the silver-toned, hand-polished hour indices and hands filled with white lume. The big Arabic numbers improve readability and add to the retro charm, while the dial's asymmetric layout evokes the iconic design aspects of 1950s racing timepieces.
Precision and Practicality
The Frédérique Constant Vintage Rally collection excels in timeless style with cutting-edge precision. Key features include advanced FC-345 chronograph and COSC-certified FC-301 movements. The watches have practical functions such as chronographs for timing events, tachymetric scales for measuring speed, and date displays. The dials are thoughtfully designed with off-centre sub-dials, striking red seconds hands, and luminous indices, enhancing readability and aesthetic appeal. Anniversary editions feature unique engravings and luxurious packaging, including a miniature Austin-Healey 100S NOJ 393 model, celebrating the rich history of the timepiece and the iconic sports car.
