Classics Premiere FC-301DGR3B6 Watch

The Watch

Founded in 1988, Frédérique Constant is a watchmaking manufacture renowned as a reliable and precise maker of classic timepieces. Its creations stand out for their exceptional quality, precise craftsmanship, and charming appeal. The Classics collection embodies the brand's spirit through clean, refined models. 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 color whose brilliance is enhanced by a beautiful polished finish. With a diameter of 38.50 mm and a thickness of 10.67 mm, this case sits beautifully on your wrist. Ideally designed for men's wrists, its lugs curve inward for a comfortable fit. The surface is protected by a convex sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment, offering excellent resistance to scratches and shocks while providing superb dial clarity. A polished 2-O-Ring crown with a pumpkin shape at 3 o'clock allows you to adjust the analog display. The case back is held by 4 screws and features a transparent opening for a striking view of the movement. It is engraved with the brand name and the limited series number, and offers a water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

The dial of this Classics is designed for effortless readability - the brand draws from the roots of classicism to offer a double-circle dial in gray. The analog display features two gray Breguet-style hands and a slender seconds hand set against a textured finish. The shorter hand indicates the hours, pointing to 12 applied Roman numeral indexes on the sunray finish, while the longer hand tracks the minutes along the railroad track on the circumference. The seconds hand sweeps to mark each second. Finally, as a signature touch, the brand places its name below 12 o'clock and the movement reference above 6 o'clock.

The Movement

This watch is powered by the acclaimed FC-301 automatic movement. Manufactured in-house, it is equipped with 26 jewels and beats at 28,800 A/h. It drives the analog display with responsiveness 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. At 20 mm wide, it perfectly complements the watch's classic aesthetic. It features an ardillon buckle of 18 mm and has a size of 80 x 120 mm.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 5 atmospheres, or 50 m. It's built to turn heads - but that elegance doesn't compromise its resilience. You can keep it on in the shower, though the Ocarat team recommends setting it gently on the edge of the sink to preserve its brilliance and integrity over time. Swimming and scuba diving are strongly discouraged, as water exposure beyond its rating may cause damage and lead to costly repairs.
