How can one hope to reach for the moon with consistent success and perfect precision ? For Frederique Constant, the solution was obvious : last May, its CEO Peter Stas had announced his decision to double the firm’s production capacity by a substantial extension of the manufacturing facility, backed by staff increases. This independent attitude is eloquently expressed through a brand-new “Manufacture” caliber entirely developed, produced and assembled inhouse and now powering the Slimline Moonphase Manufacture.
The latest addition to the current line-up of 24 in-house calibers rewrites the rules of moon-phase displays with two different counters arranged on either side of the elegantly classic silver-toned or black dial. The sapphire crystal on the back of the watch reveals the beautiful Côtes de Genève motif and circular graining typical of Frederique Constant movements. A distillation of sophisticated clothed in polished or gold-plated steel. We can’t wait to see what’s next.
