Frederique Constant

Frederique Constant watches are inspired by Swiss watchmaking tradition, but also incorporate elements of innovation and design of their own. Popular collections include the Classics, Slimline, Horological Smartwatch and Manufacture.

History of Frederique Constant

Frederique Constant’s history is based on innovation and constant growth in the world of watchmaking since its founding in 1988 by Aletta and Peter Stas. In 1992, after four years of work, they launched their first collection, the “18th Century“, featuring Swiss movements assembled in Geneva. In 1994, the brand introduced a remarkable innovation with the Heart Beat watch, whose distinctive feature was an opening in the dial that revealed the mechanical movement of the watch. This design became a hallmark of the brand.

Frederique Constant’s growth continued with their move to Geneva in 1997, when they also made their debut at Baselworld. In 2001, they adopted the motto “Live your Passion”, reflecting their dedication to success and passion for watchmaking.

The expansion of the brand led Frederique Constant to acquire Alpina Watches in 2002, diversifying its product range with sports watches. In 2004, they introduced their first in-house manufacture calibre, the FC-910. They continued to innovate with collections such as the Vintage Rally in 2007, in collaboration with Austin-Healey, and the limited edition Tourbillon Manufacture in 2008. In the same year, they created Ateliers deMonaco, further expanding their reach in the watch industry.

In 2009, Frederique Constant introduced the Runabout collection and in 2012, they launched the Classic Worldtimer Manufacture, a milestone for global travellers. In 2015, they entered the smartwatch market with a Swiss model with an analogue dial. The acquisition of the Frederique Constant Group by Citizen in 2016 marked another important stage in their history.

Innovation continued with the Flyback Chronograph Manufacture in 2017 and the Classic Hybrid Manufacture in 2018. In 2020, they introduced the Smartwatch Vitality, and in 2021, they introduced the Slimline Monolithic Manufacture, an innovation in the regulation of mechanical watches.

This track record underlines Frederique Constant’s commitment to innovation, quality and design, establishing them as a leading brand in the luxury watch industry.
