Frederique Constant’s approach to watchmaking has always been one of integrity and detail. At the heart of this Worldtimer is an in-house calibre—the FC-718, a movement crafted entirely within Frederique Constant’s manufacture. This calibre is not merely a testament to mechanical precision; it exemplifies the brand’s dedication to bringing a high standard of horology into the hands of discerning enthusiasts.

This self-winding movement offers a power reserve of 38 hours and operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, ensuring reliable and steady timekeeping. With a focus on long-term reliability, the FC-718 encapsulates Frederique Constant’s approach to making watches that are as dependable as they are sophisticated.

The Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer is engineered for the modern traveller, someone for whom adaptability and precision are paramount. Its world-time function is intuitively designed, allowing wearers to easily track time in 24 major cities. The dial, beautifully arranged to showcase a world map at its centre, highlights each time zone with clarity, presenting a layout that is both aesthetically pleasing and functional.

With a simple turn of the crown, users can set the city disc, date, and local time—no need for additional pushers. This ease of use complements a lifestyle where simplicity and efficiency are valued, allowing wearers to seamlessly transition from one time zone to another.

The Classic Worldtimer embodies Frederique Constant’s dedication to timeless design.

With a domed sapphire crystal and a see-through case back, the watch offers a glimpse into the intricate mechanics that lie within, reinforcing the union of artistry and engineering.

The dial itself is a study in elegance. Featuring hand-applied indices and fine detailing, the silver-toned world map provides both texture and depth, creating a visual that captures the essence of a world united by time. Frederique Constant has incorporated Super-LumiNova on the hour markers, as well as on the hour and minute hands, enhancing visibility under various lighting conditions.
