Classics Premiere FC-301DGR3B6 Watch

The Watch

Founded in 1988, Frédérique Constant is a watch manufacture renowned for producing reliable, precise, and classically elegant timepieces. Its creations stand out for their exceptional quality, meticulous craftsmanship, and timeless appeal. The Classics collection captures the brand's spirit through clean, refined designs. From this collection, we present the Classics Premiere FC-301DGR3B6 watch, limited to 500 pieces. It features a round case crafted in 316L stainless steel with a silver-tone finish, its brilliance enhanced by a stunning polished treatment. With a diameter of 38.50 mm and a thickness of 10.67 mm, the case hugs the wrist beautifully. Designed with men's wrists in mind, its lugs curve inward for a comfortable, secure fit. The surface is protected by a convex sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating, offering outstanding scratch and shock resistance while keeping the dial crystal-clear. A polished, pumpkin-shaped 2-O-Ring crown at 3 o'clock allows easy adjustment of the analog display. The case back is secured by 4 screws and features a transparent exhibition window offering a stunning view of the movement. It is engraved with the brand name and limited edition number, and provides water resistance to 5 ATM.

The Dial

The dial of this Classics model is designed for effortless timekeeping. True to its classicist roots, the brand offers a double-circle dial in grey. The analog display features two grey Breguet-style hands along with a slender seconds hand, all set against a textured finish. The hour hand points to 12 applied Roman numeral indices set on a sunray finish, while the minute hand tracks the railroad minute track along the dial's circumference. The seconds hand sweeps continuously to mark the passing seconds. As a finishing signature, the brand name appears below 12 o'clock, with the movement reference noted above 6 o'clock.

The Movement

This watch is powered by the renowned FC-301 automatic movement. Manufactured in-house, it is equipped with 26 jewels and beats at 28,800 vph. It drives the analog display with precision and reliability, delivering a power reserve of 68 hours.

The Strap

Classic and black, the strap of this timepiece is crafted in calfskin leather with a crocodile-pattern finish. Measuring 20 mm wide, it pairs beautifully with the watch's look and enhances its classic character. It features an 18 mm pin buckle and a size of 80 x 120 mm.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 5 atmospheres, or 50 m. Designed to be as beautiful as it is resilient, this watch holds its own in any setting. You can wear it in the shower - though the Ocarat team recommends leaving it by the sink to preserve its brilliance and integrity over time. Swimming and scuba diving, however, are not recommended, as exposure to such conditions may damage the watch and lead to repair costs.
