Highlife Ladies Quartz FC-240N2NH3B Watch

The Watch

Frédérique Constant is a Swiss watch brand recognized for its commitment to traditional watchmaking craftsmanship and innovation - seamlessly blending artisanal expertise with modern technology to create elegant pieces that balance performance and aesthetics. Every Frédérique Constant watch is crafted with meticulous attention to detail using premium materials, spanning a broad range of quartz and automatic models with sophisticated complications, all while maintaining a classic, refined style. From the Highlife collection, this beautiful Ladies Quartz watch features a seductive design that flatters the feminine wrist. The case is crafted in 316L stainless steel with ionic plating and polished and brushed finishes. Its gold and silver tones add a sophisticated touch to the overall aesthetic. Barrel-shaped, it measures 31 mm in diameter with a thickness of 7.30 mm and weighs 96 g. The case is topped with a scratch-resistant convex sapphire crystal that shields the dial from external shocks, while its anti-reflective treatment reduces glare for outstanding legibility. Hands and the date window are easily adjusted via the knurled crown at 3 o'clock. The screw-secured case back provides water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

The dial of this timepiece reveals a blue background enhanced by brushed and sunray finishes. At the center, two gold-toned brass hands display the hours and minutes, along with the applied indexes they sweep over - all coated with a SuperLuminova C1 treatment for easy reading in low light. A sweep hand indicates the seconds. A minute track borders the dial, and a date window at 3 o'clock completes the display. The brand's name appears at 12 o'clock and the place of manufacture is noted at 6 o'clock.

The Movement

A Swiss quartz movement powers this watch - specifically the FC-240 caliber, based on the Ronda 705 and bearing the Frédérique Constant name. It features 5 jewels and delivers a power reserve of 60 months.

The Strap

This gorgeous two-tone bracelet features a brushed finish on the silver-toned sections and a polished finish on the central gold-toned section. Crafted entirely from 316L stainless steel with an ionic plating at the center, it secures effortlessly on women's wrists with a push-button deployment clasp measuring 15 mm in width.

A bonus blue rubber strap is included with this watch. Featuring stitching and a textured surface, it adds a sporty, eye-catching look. This strap fastens with a gold-toned pin buckle measuring 14 mm in width.

Both straps have a lug width of 19.50 mm.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 50 meters - or 5 ATM - this is a watch that can handle occasional water contact without breaking a sweat. Wearing it in the shower now and then is fine, but to keep the movement performing at its best, our watch specialists strongly recommend keeping it away from bath, pool, and ocean water. No swimming, no diving, and no prolonged immersion.
