FC-310B4NH6B) proudly puts its mechanical soul on display, opening a window in the dial so you can watch the balance wheel of its Swiss automatic movement beating in real time. It is a modern, minimalist take on one of Frederique Constant's most recognizable designs, built here around a black brass dial decorated with the Highlife globe motif. The aperture sits right at the pole of that globe, a clever bit of placement that turns the movement's rhythm into part of the dial's artwork, while applied silver indexes and luminous hands and markers keep the time easy to read.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 41mm stainless steel case measures 10.84mm thick and flows seamlessly into an integrated steel bracelet that closes with a fold-over clasp. For more casual days, an additional black rubber strap is included, giving the watch a sportier, more relaxed personality without losing any of its polish. The FC-310 self-winding caliber needs no battery, winding itself from the natural motion of your wrist, and anti-reflective sapphire crystal plus 100 meters of water resistance mean it is as comfortable at the pool as it is at dinner. For anyone who loves seeing the mechanics behind the time, this is a striking way to wear Swiss watchmaking every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeart Beat Aperture\u003c\/strong\u003e – an opening at the pole of the dial's globe reveals the balance wheel in motion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlack Globe Dial\u003c\/strong\u003e – black brass dial with the Highlife globe motif, applied silver indexes and luminous hands and markers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFC-310 Swiss Automatic\u003c\/strong\u003e – self-winding mechanical caliber powered by the motion of your wrist, with no battery needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated Bracelet and Rubber Strap\u003c\/strong\u003e – stainless steel bracelet with fold-over clasp, plus an extra black rubber strap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100m Water Resistance\u003c\/strong\u003e – suitable for swimming, showering and snorkeling, under anti-reflective sapphire crystal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReference:\u003c\/strong\u003e FC-310B4NH6B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Highlife\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heart Beat Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e FC-310\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement Technology:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automatic (self-winding mechanical, wound by an oscillating weight; no battery required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunctions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hours, Minutes, Seconds, Heart Beat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver-Tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 41 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Thickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.84 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLug Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anti-Reflective Sapphire Crystal (impact and shatter resistant)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indices, Luminous Hands, Luminous Markers, Open Aperture (Heart Beat), globe motif, applied silver indexes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e WR100 \/ 10 Bar \/ 333 ft (Swimming, Showering \u0026amp; Snorkeling)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bracelet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver-Tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBand Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 254 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClasp Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fold Over Clasp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Strap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black rubber strap, included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Switzerland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTimepiece History\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrederique 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first Heart Beat watch arrived in 1994 and quickly became one of Frederique Constant's signature designs. Its purpose was to make clear that these watches were mechanical: an opening cut into the dial at the position of the balance wheel lets the wearer see the movement at work, a feature often called the watch's beating heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the Highlife Heart Beat Automatic, that idea meets the Highlife collection, which Frederique Constant first launched in 1999 with an integrated strap and revived from 2020. The integrated case has no strap horns, so it sits naturally on the wrist, and its dial carries the globe motif shared by every Highlife model, a symbol of the Earth, harmony and the perfection of the circle, with the Heart Beat aperture placed at the globe's pole. Two push-pins at the end of the bracelet allow tool-free changes between steel, leather and rubber straps.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Frederique Constant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50878836867120,"sku":"FC-310B4NH6B","price":2895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/1764\/4336\/files\/Heart_Beat_Automatic_65cdd962-7197-45f9-87b1-38c9bb685374.png?v=1792793973","url":"https:\/\/elizaldejewelers.com\/products\/frederique-constant-highlife-heart-beat-automatic-fc-310b4nh6b","provider":"Elizalde Jewelers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
