Classics Heart Beat Moonphase Date FC-335MCNW4P26 Watch

The Watch

The Swiss watch maison Frédérique Constant has been crafting timepieces that marry know-how with elegance since its very beginning. The watch presented here belongs to the Classics FC-335MCNW4P26 collection. This timepiece features a highly resistant stainless steel case with rounded curves, designed to sit elegantly on a men's wrist. The case measures 40 mm in diameter and 10 mm in thickness. A fixed, polished bezel surrounds the dial, with a crown at 3 o'clock allowing you to manage the various functions. A domed sapphire crystal sits above the dial - a finishing touch that lends the model a vintage flair and is renowned in watchmaking for its exceptional resistance to everyday shocks and scratches. This charming timepiece features a screwed-down case back that provides water resistance to 60 meters. Watch enthusiasts will also be delighted to find a transparent case back, offering a glimpse into the movement's intricate mechanics as you move through your day.

The Dial

Gaze at the stars and let your imagination roam with this round dial in deep blue. Notice the precision craftsmanship of its Clous de Paris guilloché finish at the heart of the dial. At the center, two Breguet-style hands display the hours and minutes, complemented by a seconds hand that gracefully sweeps the dial. The hours are marked by Roman numeral indexes. A fourth white indicator with an arrow points to the date, displayed via Arabic numerals from 1 to 31 around the dial's edge. Every horological detail serves the analog reading of time. The complications were chosen to affirm this piece's place in the world of luxury watchmaking. Just above the 6 o'clock index, a moon phase complication adds a poetic, timeless dimension to the timepiece. The defining feature of this dial sits just below 12 o'clock: its "open heart" finish, revealing the watchmaking artistry beneath. Finally, the maison signs its creation in capital letters at the center of the dial.

The Movement

Engineered for precision and endurance, this case houses a Swiss-made automatic movement - specifically the FC-335 caliber, manufactured by Frédérique Constant and featuring 26 jewels. It delivers a 38-hour power reserve and beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour, reliably displaying hours, minutes, seconds, date, and moon phases over the long term.

The Strap

Matching the dial perfectly, a blue leather strap adds a refined, comfortable touch to any outfit. It features white stitching that subtly finishes off the crocodile-pattern leather. An ardillon buckle lets you adjust the fit with ease, while the 22 mm lug width keeps everything perfectly proportioned.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 6 atmospheres - equivalent to 60 meters - this watch is a solid introduction to the world of water resistance. While it's not designed for swimming laps or diving, you can safely wear it in the shower. That said, our experts recommend keeping it dry whenever possible to protect its movement for years to come.
