Classics Heart Beat Black FC-310MC5B6 Watch

The Watch

Looking for a luxurious jewelry watch at a reasonable price? The FC-310MC5B6 from the Classics Heart Beat collection by Frédérique Constant is exactly what you need. Its round case in polished silver stainless steel measures 40 mm in diameter and 10.5 mm in height - designed with a men's wrist in mind. At 3 o'clock, a knurled winding crown lets you set the hands. A convex sapphire crystal - nearly as hard as diamond - sits above the dial, protecting it from shocks and scratches. The case back is both screwed down and transparent, offering a view of the automatic movement within. It also ensures water resistance to 5 atmospheres, or 50 meters.

The Dial

Frédérique Constant has chosen a refined round dial in white - a versatile choice that pairs effortlessly with any outfit. The dial is defined by its exquisite finishing and double-circle layout. On the outer ring, a sunray finish adds luminosity, with 12 indexes represented by printed Roman numerals in black marking the hours. A precise, graduated minute railway track runs along the outer edge as well. The inner circle features a stunning Clous de Paris guilloché finish for added depth. At the center, 2 black Breguet hands display hours and minutes, accompanied by a fine black seconds hand. Just below 12 o'clock, a small window into the watch's soul reveals its open heart complication. The brand signs its creation at 6 o'clock.

The Movement

Powering this watch is a automatic FC-310 caliber movement featuring 26 jewels, with a power reserve of 38 hours.

The Strap

Crafted to deliver a chic and elegant look, this watch comes on a black leather strap with a crocodile-pattern finish and subtle black stitching on the edges. It fastens with a silver deployant buckle. The lug width is 20 mm.

Water Resistance

At 50 meters - or 5 ATM - this timepiece handles the occasional splash with ease, but isn't meant for prolonged water exposure. You can wear it in the shower every now and then, but to protect the movement's quality and accuracy, our watch specialists strongly recommend keeping it away from baths, pools, and the ocean. In short: no swimming, no diving, and no extended immersion.
