Original Classique Frederique Constant (FC)

15 th Sep 2011

This is the original classic piece of Swiss watch-maker Frederique Constant produced in the 1990s. 

From the  watch’s dial design to layout of its hand-winding mechanical movement, this 36mm wristwatch meant only one thing – original classic.

The watch casing is of 18K gold plating including the hour/minute hands as well as indexes. Uniquely positioned in the 6 o’clock is the second-hand small dial in recess. The back case of the watch is made of see-through crystal glass showing the beautiful mechanism. It is one of the few pieces of Frederique Constant watches that were produced under stringent workmanship, in the early stages of the Swiss manufacturer.

This model remains a highly sought after collection by European and Indonesian affluent watch collectors. Its hand-winding movement was original and self-produced by FC.  Currently estimated to be sold (in resale market, if you still can find one) in the range of at least USD3,000 – 4,000. The value will continue to go up in the future.
