Frederique Constant Manufacture Classic Date - FC-706S3H6

Crisp, bright and refreshingly uncluttered, the Frederique Constant Manufacture Classic Date (ref. FC-706S3H6) is a Swiss automatic watch built around a silver sunburst dial that shifts with the light at every turn of the wrist. Its stainless steel case has been pared down to a neat 40mm, and the dial is free of numerals, leaving slim, diamond-faceted applied hour markers, a railtrack minute circle and black date and minute indications that read at a glance. Look closely and you'll spot that the markers at 5 and 7 o'clock are slightly shorter, a thoughtful touch that frames the date at 6 o'clock.

At its heart is the in-house FC-706 Manufacture caliber, a 4Hz automatic movement whose 72-hour power reserve stores three full days of energy, nearly double the 38 hours of the calibers it succeeds. Its redesigned bridges make room for a larger barrel and are dressed in beading and fan-shaped Côtes de Genève. Diamond-cut hands hand-polished in the Alpha style, an onion-type crown at 3 o'clock and a navy blue alligator strap with a push-button folding buckle give it a polished, gentlemanly finish, and anti-reflective sapphire crystal plus 50 meters of water resistance make it an easy companion from Monday meetings to weekend dinners.

Timepiece History

Frederique Constant was founded in 1988 by Aletta and Peter Stas, an entrepreneurial couple who shared a passion for watchmaking. Headquartered in Geneva, Frederique Constant has long aimed to make high-end Swiss-made watches available at more accessible prices. In 2004, it joined the ranks of Swiss watchmakers that develop and produce their own in-house calibers, and today its Manufacture in Plan-les-Ouates, Geneva, designs, develops and assembles more than 30 in-house calibers, including tourbillon, perpetual calendar and flyback chronograph complications. Frederique Constant celebrated its 35th anniversary in 2023.

Frederique Constant gave the Classic Date a full overhaul when it introduced three new steel versions with a brand-new Manufacture movement. The FC-706 took over from the legacy 38-hour calibers, and the silver-dial model shows the new design language clearly: no Roman or Arabic numerals, slim diamond-faceted markers and black date and minute indications on a sunburst surface.
