Frederique Constant Men’s FC303C5B4 Index Analog Display Swiss Automatic Brown Watch

By  | 

Frederique Constant was established in 1988 when Aletta Bax and Peter Stas came together to create timeless and sophisticated watches. The pair launched their first collection in 1992 which was composed of 6 unique models, all outfitted with Swiss movements. The watches were assembled in Geneva. Frederique Constant is personally involved with all stages of watch production from the initial design phases through the assembly stages. Watches that bear the Frederique Constant name are known to be of the utmost quality and the finest design. The design powerhouse uses cutting-edge computer software to assist in the design and development process, creating watches that are always on the leading edge of the latest trends.

The Frederique Constant Men’s FC303C5B4 Index Analog Display Swiss Automatic Brown Watch has a beautiful scratch resistant synthetic sapphire cover over a black dial. The sapphire cover is anti-reflective, making it easy to read the watch in all types of light. The metallic arms and time markings match the case of the watch. A small window at the 3 o’clock position displays the date. The case has a diameter of 40mm and the watch is water resistant to 165 feet.

A black alligator leather band completes the design of the watch. The band secures shut with a simple buckle mechanism and is the perfect accessory for casual, dress and formal attire. The classic styling of the watch is both understated and sophisticated. As mentioned above, Frederique Constant watches are assembled by hand in Genevea, Switzerland and they feature an interior mechanism of true Swiss design.

Besides being devastatingly handsome, the watch is extremely durable. The high-quality materials ensure that it resists damage from minor wetness, drops and scratches. Of course, the watch should not be submerged or worn when showering and certain high impacts can shatter the sapphire dial cover. Overall, the steel frame provides a great deal of resistance from most of the types of impacts experienced on a daily basis.

To get the longest life and greatest use from the watch, regular maintenance and care should be exercised. Regular dusting is required and the strap should be treated with a leather cleaner on occasion.

Because the band is made of leather, it will show signs of wear much faster than the watch case. When the band wears, it may be replaced to extend the life of the timepiece. With proper care and maintenance, you can expect the alligator band to last roughly 18 months with daily wear.

If you’re looking for a daily use watch with classical styling and the type of precision only a Swiss design can provide, look no further. The Frederique Constant Swiss Automatic Brown Watch is the right choice for you. The watch comes packaged in a stylish case that is perfect for storing the piece when not in use or for gift-giving. It is the standard size for a man’s watch and may be worn on either the right or left arm. Check it out and enjoy the rich history and high-quality designs of Frederique Constant.
