The Watch

Frédérique Constant is a watchmaking brand founded in 1988. Driven by an ambitious spirit, it has established itself through exceptional craftsmanship and refined aesthetics, earning a prominent place in the Swiss watchmaking world. Its timepieces stand out for their timeless elegance, cutting-edge movements, harmonious designs, and meticulous details that delight watch enthusiasts. Frédérique Constant watches are more than accessories - they embody a philosophy rooted in excellence, style, and longevity. Today, the brand presents the Ladies Quartz Watch FC-240MPWD2NH22B from the Highlife Collection, designed to beautifully adorn women's wrists with effortless grace. It features a round case measuring 31 mm in diameter and 7.30 mm in thickness, crafted in brushed and polished 316L stainless steel for a polished look that complements any style. Built to last, it carries a convex sapphire crystal over the dial, treated with an anti-reflective coating for clear, glare-free reading - and an anti-scratch treatment to preserve its beauty and protect the dial from the knocks of everyday life. At 3 o'clock, a 2-0 rings crown allows easy adjustment of the central functions. Silver-toned with a knurled finish, it's easy to grip during use. This captivating model weighs 96.40 g, is secured by an engraved case back held by screws, and delivers water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

Step into refined elegance with this sunray dial. It features a warm gray base adorned with hour markers for reliable timekeeping. Along the edge, a minute railroad track and alternating baton-style indices are set with 8 brilliant diamonds totaling 0.04 ct, adding an unmatched touch of luxury at every hour. Striking and captivating, the dial reveals three gray hands at its center, including a slender seconds hand, along with longer and shorter hands indicating minutes and hours. The two main hands are coated with a SuperLuminova C1 treatment also applied to the baton indices, ensuring optimal legibility in low-light conditions. At 3 o'clock, a date window adds a practical touch. The Swiss Made label appears at 6 o'clock, and the brand name is proudly signed just below the double index at 12 o'clock.

The Movement

This watch is powered by an in-house quartz movement - specifically the FC-240 caliber based on the Ronda 705 - driving the hands and date function with precision. This Swiss mechanism is vibration-resistant and fitted with a battery that provides approximately 5 years of power reserve.

The Bracelet

This beautiful bracelet will elevate your look for any occasion. Crafted entirely in 316L stainless steel, it delivers exceptional durability. With a length of 158 mm and a lug width of 19.50 mm, it's designed to fit your wrist perfectly while ensuring outstanding comfort. Its brushed and polished links add a sophisticated finish that catches the light and subtly enhances your hand. Thanks to its quick-release system, you can switch up your style whenever the mood strikes. The bracelet features a deployment clasp with push-button releases and a 15 mm width for effortless everyday wear.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 5 atmospheres, or 50 m. It's crafted to turn heads and shine in any social setting - and that refined elegance doesn't come at the cost of durability. You can keep it on in the shower, though the Ocarat team recommends leaving it on the edge of the sink to preserve its brilliance and integrity over time. Swimming and scuba diving, however, are not recommended, as exposure to those conditions could damage the watch and lead to costly repairs.
