New Frederique Constant Slimline Moonphase Date Manufacture Watch

Luxury watch brand Frederique Constant prides itself in being a true Swiss watch manufacturer. They create their own movements and assemble their watches by hand. The watch brand asked French artist seconde/seconde/ to find a way to convey the message in his own distinctive, cheeky style. Perhaps, he may have gone too far. The result is two altered limited editions of the Slimline Moonphase Date Manufacture.

One watch Slimline Moonphase edition is steel and limited to just 100 examples. The other edition is steel with a rose gold tone crown and dial elements. This one is limited to only 10 pieces.

Known as a commentator, comedian, horological hacker and even a guerrilla artist. Romaric André is better known to the world under his alias seconde/seconde/. In a short few years, Hence, seconde/seconde/ has become a mainstay in many watch collectors’ radars. From editing vintage watches with playful elements to collaborating with brands of all sizes and price segments. As a result, seconde/seconde/ found in the watch industry a perfect and somewhat untapped playground for combining his two passions: satire and horology.

For his first collaboration with Frederique Constant, seconde/seconde/ sought to shine a light on what he considers the brand’s greatest strength. The hand-assembled aspect of its watches. Upon a first glance from a distance, the Slimline Moonphase Date Manufacture appears totally normal. Yet, the finely polished three-part 42mm stainless steel case, the subtly sparkling matt silver dial and harmonious moonphase and date display are all there. Take a closer look and notice nothing is as it seems.

The applied hour markers appear to be weirdly and unevenly dispatched. Plus, the script of the logo and the date indication look like they were hand-written. Even the moonphase disk’s moon and stars look uneven and drawn by hand. For seconde/seconde/ though, it makes perfect sense. Highlight the handcrafted aspect of Frederique Constant’s Slimline Moonphase Date Manufacture by incorporating a bit of human error. On the reverse side of the case, there is an open display case.

Thanks for reading about the Frederique Constant Slimline Moonphase Date Manufacture watch. Are you looking for that perfect luxury watch? The Life of Luxury can assist you, as we work with wholesalers and retail partners all around the world.

Two New Limited-Edition Timepieces for Year of the Dragon – Arnold & Son

Luxury watch brand Arnold & Son introduces the Perpetual Moon 41.5 Red Gold “Year of the Dragon” and Luna Magna Red Gold “Year of the Dragon.” The year of the Wooden Dragon starts on February 10, 2024. In addition to a year of questioning and control, the dragon also represents negotiation and generosity.

The Arnold & Son Perpetual Moon 41.5 Red Gold and Luna Magna Red Gold models are issued in two colorways – blue and black. Each colorway is limited to only eight pieces each. Therefore, only 32 of these stunning timepieces will be available for collectors worldwide.

LUNA MAGNA RED GOLD”

Arnold & Son showcases the traditional Chinese calendar, with a majestic dragon and the artistic crafts. Fine watchmaking, miniature sculpture, and gemstone craftsmanship make up the two versions of their new luxury watches.

Resonance of the Gems
As a tribute to decorative horology, Arnold & Son dedicates the “Chinese Zodiac” with their amazing Luna Magna collection. Two versions are available. They both feature a large moon composed of red gold (5N) and pietersite or onyx. The moon is face to face with an impressive dragon in the same gold.

The features a large dial. It shows dragon landing. Plus it’s made from the same stone as the three-dimensional moon, namely pietersite or onyx. The first is blue with veining. The second is smooth, glossy and black. The off-center dial showing the hours and minutes is in white opal. Thus, a signature Arnold & Son gemstone.

Cambered Dragon
Just like the case that encloses it, the dragon is hand-engraved and sculpted from red gold (5N). Hence, the powerful body of the mythical creature wraps around the dial to its head.

PERPETUAL MOON 41.5 RED GOLD

According to the traditional Chinese calendar, 2024 is a prosperous and harmonious year. Arnold & Son marks this occasion with a sculptural flying dragon on a dial. This dragon shows against the aventurine glass. Its delicate sculpture includes countless hand-crafted details.

Undulation
The majestic dragon has powerful feet, dissuasive claws, open maw, and whiskers flowing in the wind. As a result, it drifts between two worlds. With hand-painted shadows, the large, mother-of-pearl moon is overlaid with Super-LumiNova. It is against an aventurine glass sky. Plus, it’s surrounded by the constellations of the Great Bear and Cassiopeia. These are hand-painted and overlaid with luminescent material.

New Classic Tourbillon Meteorite Manufacture in Platinum Watch by Frederique Constant

In 2023, luxury brand Frederique Constant celebrate its 35th anniversary. In addition, it’s the 15th anniversary of its iconic Tourbillon calibre. For the occasion, the Maison has unveiled a Classic Tourbillon Meteorite Manufacture luxury watch in platinum. The new watch features a meteorite dial and limited to only 35 pieces.

For the first time, each individual timepiece is finished completely by hand. This undertaking is done by two Frederique Constant watchmakers, who’s goal is to ensure the highest degree of hand-finishing possible on the movement.

The Classic Tourbillon Meteorite Manufacture includes only 35 handcrafted and numbered pieces. This it’s the ultimate must-have watch. The cut-out in its dial at 6 o’clock reveals the Manufacture tourbillon created by Frederique Constant in 2008. It’s one of the few tourbillons available in a platinum case with a meteorite dial to be currently available on the market.

Another noteworthy fact is the entire hand-finishing of all the components of the movement. This exceptional and unprecedented achievement is the work of two watchmakers specializing in the Maison’s Manufacture and complication movements.

The watchmakers spent weeks using traditional instruments and tools, working on the meticulous finishing of each of the components. For example, a buff file for beveling and a hammer and punch for hand-punching. Also, 9-micron sandpaper for charbonnage of the frame (bridge) and the base of the tourbillon cage. Continuing, a single bridge alone requires between two and three days of work.

To ensure visual coherence with the color of the meteorite dial, the movement also sports a ruthenium finish. This is very rare for Frederique Constant and indeed in the watchmaking industry as a whole. Yet, all the more reason for adopting it here. Each engraving includes the timepiece’s individual number. It is rhodium-plated to ensure the characters stand out clearly.

Interestingly, it consists of 45 components and boasts a revolutionary constant escapement, including the brand’s revolutionary Anchor Constant Escapement.

The company’s Constant Escapement features a circular frame with a pallet fork fixed in the center. Thus, it supports in space on two blade springs less than a quarter of the thickness of a hair in diameter.

Decorate a single dial by assembling the small silicon plates took countless hours of work for the Ulysse Nardin artisans. Their dedication and attention to detail are critical. As a result, they were careful to not break or mark the extremely fragile jewels of the Blast Free Wheel Marquetry watch.

Lastly, the new luxury watch face features a seven-day power reserve display.

New Limited Perpetual Moon “Year of the Rabbit” Timepiece by Arnold & Son

Arnold & Son celebrates the year of the Lunar New Year and the Year of the Water Rabbit with a new artistic version of the brand’s Perpetual Moon “Year of the Rabbit” timepiece. The luxury watch brand continues its annual celebration of the traditional Chinese calendar. This time with this limited new series of eight high-precision moon-phase wristwatches. The Perpetual Moon “Year of the Rabbit” timepiece features a sculpted golden rabbit set against a backdrop of black aventurine. It poses next to a pagoda and is surrounded by waterfalls.

The Perpetual Moon “Year of the Rabbit” timepiece is symbolic, powerful, sophisticated, and full of meaning. Arnold & Son has sculpted the animal in a calm yet watchful pose. For example, it sits majestically against a backdrop of black aventurine, beneath a great mother-of-pearl moon. In Chinese Zodiac iconography, the water rabbit is the moon’s loyal companion. In addition to its fine watchmaking movement, the timepiece also displays masterful aesthetics.

The year of the Water Rabbit begins on Saturday, January 21, 2023. Based on the founding legends of the Chinese Zodiac, the rabbit inhabits a white jade moon, and serves as its pet. The rabbit embodies prudence and agility. As a result, when shown alongside the characteristic element of the year of the Water Rabbit, this animal promises longevity, peace, and prosperity.

Celestial light

Arnold & Son accommodates a large moon on the watch dial. In a large aperture, a turning disc reveals the waxing and waning of the night’s celestial body. Plus, one will see the appearance of the crescent moon and its light. The moon is crafted from mother-of-pearl with painted elements in relief. All are enhanced with Super-LumiNova.

Pale during the day, it transforms at night. This, it shines brightly and is adorned with scintillating details. The luxury watch’s dial contains aquatic elements. As a result, it adds further dimension to the scene. In the background, the disc bearing the star is made from deep black aventurine glass.

Artistic expression

The rabbit remains the dial’s key element. Sculpted in three dimensions, it is crafted from 18-karat rose gold. This time consuming work is worthy of the exceptional attention Arnold & Son has always paid to its limited series created in tribute to the Chinese Zodiac.

The same holds true for the watch dial. On a disc of black aventurine glass, the foliage and pagoda decorations are hand-painted with gold powder. Continuing, the Perpetual Moon “Year of the Rabbit” timepiece model is mounted on a glistening black alligator leather strap. Notice the visible platinum stitching and a lining of auspicious red alligator leather.

Expert watchmaking

Thanks to the watch manufacture’s research and development efforts, the moon phase display of this movement is extremely precise. For example, it will remain accurate for 122 years before deviating from the actual lunar cycle by one day. Hence, the Perpetual Moon “Year of the Rabbit” timepiece will work in perfect harmony with the astronomic, astrological, and collection cycles. This unique sense of eternity is characteristic of all Arnold & Son creations.

DC Inspired x Wonder Woman Tourbillon Watch by Kross Studio

The new Kross Studio x Wonder Woman tourbillon watch was created in collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products and DC. DC’s Wonder Woman is a cinimatic icon. Her unique depth of character has inspired fans all around the world. As a fitting tribute to Wonder Woman’s global impact, Kross Studio has designed a complex and powerful watch. Hence, it underlines her icon status as an invincible fighter and seeker of justice.

The custom-commissioned, one-of-a-kind Kross Studio x Wonder Woman timepiece stands as a testament to Kross Studio’s daring creativity and manufacturing prowess. The Swiss luxury watch team has agile skill and creates custom designs for the most discerning collectors and enthusiasts.

Wonder Woman Movie Collection

Attractive actor Gal Gadot plays the role of Diana Prince in the Wonder Woman movie series. The first movie titled “Wonder Woman” hit theaters in May of 2017. Featuring an Amazon princess who confronts the forces of evil and bring an end to human conflict, during World War One. The second movie – 1984 came out in December of 2020. First, a botched store robbery puts Wonder Woman in a global battle against a powerful and mysterious ancient force. But that battle puts her special powers in jeopardy.

A Unique and Exceptional Superhero Watch

To produce this exceptional watch piece that embodies the superheroine, Kross Studio developed an ultra-complex new casing process. It unites the watch’s dial and movement. For example, Kross Studio engineers turned to the brand’s own central tourbillon manufacture movement to begin. Yes, the integration of the dial required a new design, inspiring a new version of the caliber KS’7000. As a result, the dial and the movement follow the curve of the sapphire crystal across its entire diameter.

Moreover, the Studio did not top the central tourbillon cage with a decorative element. Rather, it integrates Wonder Woman’s iconic emblem as an integral part of the dial. It is found above the tourbillon cage. For its part, the tourbillon cage benefits from a new design with an upper cage bridge symbolizing the Kross Studio cross.

One-of-a-kind Time Reading

Fittingly, the Kross Studio x Wonder Woman watch also presents a unique method of reading the hours and minutes. The hour hand, represents Wonder Woman’s sword. It attaches to the peripheral display mechanism in 360° orbit around the tourbillon. The superheroine’s tiara points to her shield. In turn, it reveals the disc displaying the minutes over a range of 15 minutes at 12 o’clock. Finally, the hour markers on the flange are in the shape of stars, a potent symbol of Wonder Woman.

A Stunning and Vibrant, Luxury Timepiece

The circular satin-brushed grade 5 titanium case has a design with depth and brilliance. For example, the flange and the minute disc are treated in blue pvd to the sandblasted and polished central applique in 3N gold color. The final touches go even further. Using 5-axis CNC machining techniques and hand-crafted finishes have enabled Kross Studio technicians and designers to render elements of the Wonder Woman central tourbillon watch in three dimensions.

The Kross Studio x Wonder Woman watch comes with three straps. They are easily interchangeable thanks to the ingenious quick-change strap system. One is crafted of blue calf leather strap and the second is red alligator. Lastly, the third strap comes in anthracite grey goat leather.

New Classics Carree Automatic Watches from Frederique Constant

Luxury watch brand Frederique Constant introduces three new variations of the Classics Carree Automatic watch collection.  Going back to its original era and the roaring twenties, the new watches emerge with a stylistic audacity.  Yes, the resulting imprint is still perceptible.

The new Classics Carree Automatic luxury watch collection is very refined.  The stunning rose gold-plated or steel timepieces rely on a minimalist style. They include baton indexes, dauphine hands and date. In addition, a dial with a subtle guilloché pattern gives the Classics Carrée Automatic a rare elegance for aesthete collectors.

Classics Carree Automatic

The new Classics Carree Automatic watches from Frederique Constant are available in three versions. Each is powered by the FC-303 caliber offering 38 hours of power reserve. The caliber is clearly visible through the sapphire caseback. Continuing, the most sober and classic come with a steel case, silver dial and black leather strap. The most modern comes in the same case with a blue dial on a matching bracelet in the same tone. It’s topstitched in blue. The most chic and precious prefers a pink gold-plated case with shared indexes and hands, on a brown strap.

First launched in 2003, the Classics Carree Automatic is evolving again and significantly. First, a major change is the Heart Beat opening closes. Plus, the housing is the well-kept secret of the Swiss Made mechanism of the timepiece. Hence, this is how the face of a new, much more streamlined dial emerges. For example, the large Roman numerals give way to applied indexes, doubled at noon. The style is timeless and much closer to the aesthetic canons of the 20s.

The date window at 6 o’clock reproduces the rectangular line of the case. Therefore, it is dressed in a frame of the same finish as the latter, also shared by the indexes.

Luxury watch brand Frederique Constant introduces three new variations of the Classics Carrée Automatic watch collection.

You will find in the center of the dial, the most refined finishes. First, a rectangle with the exact proportions of the 30.4 x 33.3 mm case. It’s closed by a “railway” type timer, typical of the 1920s and the Art Deco movement that ran through them. Next, a very fine grooving dresses it. As a result, it offers a sole gaze of its owner.

This subtlety makes it possible to offer a better contrast to the set of three hands. Of course, the hours and minutes are shaped in the Dauphine style. Thus, a geometry is also characteristic of the past century. This simple, refined shape allows the time to be read perfectly in all circumstances. This is due to two facets. Each is oriented at two divergent angles. Therefore, at least one of the two always captures the light. Brillant design!
