Frederique Constant

Passion as origin

In 1988, the Frédérique Constant company got a makeover: in the sale of dials for the watch industry since 1904, it is now at the heart of the project of two enthusiasts Aletta and Peter Stas. They have one wish: to make luxury watches accessible without compromising on quality, so that all lovers of fine watchmaking can realize their dream. In 1994, the manufacture innovated by proposing the Heart Beat, a watch of a rare delicacy which lets the heart of the movement appear at the index of noon. As this invention was not patented, the Heart Beat was quickly marketed by other brands.

A creative power

Frédérique Constant invests in the development of the Heart Beat range creating Date-Day, Retrograde, Perpetual Calendar versions... The passionate couple tackles the design of a Frédérique Constant Heart Beat movement in 2001. Unveiled (and patented!) in 2004, the Heart Beat timepiece saw its heart moved to 6 o'clock. In 2008, the brand introduced the first in-house Tourbillon Manufacture caliber, making it a must-have. Today, Frédérique Constant offers numerous collections in all styles, but always of the highest quality: Runabout, Yacht Timer, Classics, Slimline, Smartwatch, Ladies Automatic, Highlife, Manufacture.
