Frederique Constant’s Slim

Frederique Constant’s Slim

There’s an old saying “no school like the old school” this saying is more relevant to watch’s than ever. With what seems like daily releases of new models from the top watch brands, we think that when investing in a timepiece, it pays to follow the school of thought that favours traditional designs. They’re normally more understated than their modern counterparts, but more importantly they have stood the test of time and therefore will continue to do so.

Geneva based Frederique Constant are an exemplary family run Swiss manufacturer of the finest quality. Since their beginnings in 1988 they have built their brand values to place a strong emphasis on clean design, fine details and innovation. They are true representatives of bona fide luxury at affordable prices.

This watch seen above is from their Slim Line range, with a thickness of just 5mm, it slips effortlessly under your cuff. Other features include a white dial with index markers and date display set within a 37mm gold plated case with scratch resistant sapphire crystal. The movement is Swiss made quartz, secured by a calf skin strap. This watch is everything you want in a timepiece, and more as an investment, it delivers elegance, quality, enduring design and value for money.
