Frederique Constant - Highlife Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar Manufacture

Frederique Constant presents the Highlife Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar Manufacture. In rose gold or steel with prices of €39,995 and €22,995

The flagship collection by Frederique Constant is expanding with the Highlife Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar Manufacture.

Available in stainless steel (ref. FC-975N4NH6B) or 18 carat rose gold (ref. FC-975N4NH9), the new model is the most accessible manufacture wristwatch combining a perpetual calendar and a tourbillon.

The 41 mm x 12.65 mm case with integrated strap or bracelet frames a dial dominated by the blue colour and characterised by four sectors.

The day and date are arranged horizontally at 9 and 3 o'clock respectively. Brought together in a single counter at 12 o’clock are the month (large hand) and leap year indication (small hand). The tourbillon balances it out at 6 o'clock, counting down the seconds with its central hand. 

The new watch is powered by the FC-975 calibre, designed, produced and assembled in limited numbers at the Geneva-based manufacture. 

Equipped with a silicon escapement, the movement FC-975 caliber beats at the frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour with a power reserve of 38 hours and it is finished with perlage, golden engravings and Côtes de Genève decorations.

The correctors used to adjust the calendar indications are placed on the caseband.

The rose gold model comes with a topstitched alligator leather strap while the steel model is matched to a three-link bracelet with a folding buckle. Both models are delivered with a second strap made of rubber.

Water resistant up to 30 metres / 100 feet, the Frederique Constant Highlife Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar Manufacture is limited to 30 pieces in rose gold version and 88 pieces in steel with prices of Euro 39,995 and Euro 22,995, respectively. frederiqueconstant.com
