Healey Challenge Canada 2009

Frederique Constant is excited to announce that the Healey Challenge Canada 2009 in Kingston, Ontario, also known as The Year of the Healey-Loyalist was a huge success for both Frederique Constant as well as for the more than 550 people that were in attendance. Over 230 Healey cars could be admired during numerous activities, and also a number of Healey watches was on display. The crowd at the display booth was evidence that the Healey watches are highly desired, specifically the models created for this year's event featuring the event logo on the back of the watch.


While it is obvious Healey owners are passionate about their cars, they also love their Frederique Constant Healey watches. One fan in particular purchased the first edition Healey watch back in 2004, and has purchased all since then, including this year's models!


As the Official Timing Partner & Premier Sponsor of the event, Frederique Constant was honored to offer Limited Edition Healey watches to "Best of Show"  and to the only finisher of an equippe of more than 20 cars, to complete the descerning "Time, Speed, Distance Rally".


It was again exciting to be part of such an event and to meet so many interesting & passionate people, that do not only love cars, but also watches!


We are looking forward to next year's Healey Event... See you all then!

What 'they' say about Frederique Constant...

Please find herewith a selection of notes on Frederique Constant and its product, randomly found on the internet.

From www.worldwatchreview.com:

What really stands this watch [Maxime Manufacture Automatic] out of the crowd, is its movement. You see, most brands in this price range (the watch will retail below €2000, by the way) are usually powered by standard ETA movements with standard complication modules supplied by third-party manufacturers like, say, Dubois-Depraz. The FC MMA is powered by the company’s own FC-700 in-house movement and, although its accuracy and reliability still have to pass the test of time, this makes it THE most exclusive affordable watch on the market.

From www.geekwatches.com:

Frederique Constant rarely releases new watches but this time they are presenting us with a classic looking timepiece that many watch enthusiasts would definitely love. This watch is called as the Frederique Constant Maxime Manufacture Automatic.

This Frederique Constant Maxime Manufacture Automatic Watch is an elegant timepiece that also has a classic look on it. This timepiece is made of steel that can be seen on its case and bezel. This material also creates a luxurious glow which makes it very irresistible. Like any other elegant watches, this watch is also matched with a brown alligator leather strap.

The watch includes a white dial with silver accents found on the luminescent coated hour numbers and hands. This also has a sunray detailing on the center which makes this watch more attractive. Furthermore, there is a separate date indicator found on the 6 o’clock position to complete its functions.

This elegant timepiece from Frederique Constant is definitely a watch to include in your collection. Wear this for a more elegant look in your casual or formal outfit.

From www.watchtime.com:

Five years ago, Frédérique Constant joined the circle of Swiss brands that develop and produce their movements in-house. For 2009, Frédérique Constant introduces its Maxime Manufacture Automatic featuring the all-new, in-house manufactured FC-700 automatic caliber. Outside, the 42mm diameter case offers polished and matte surfaces. A sapphire crystal covers a silver guilloché dial.

Priced at only $2550 in steel or $3550 in steel/rose gold capped, the Maxime offers classic good looks and excellent value for a Swiss-made watch with a manufacture movement. The Maxime is available at retailers now.

From www.swisstime.org:

Frédérique Constant Genève is establishing itself as one of Switzerland’s leading watch brands with this creation of a tourbillon with a silicon escape-wheel and, for the first time, an amplitude of over 300 degrees between its vertical and horizontal positions. Coupled with the rapid oscillation, this gives the watch an unusually high level of precision, while the silicon guarantees optimum protection. It is offered in a limited individually-numbered edition of 188. With its technical complexity - for example, the meticulous attention paid to every detail - this timepiece will be around for years to come.

From www.worldwatchreview.com:

Frederique Constant will soon start selling its Runabout limited edition automatic chronograph watch. Available both in stainless steel and in rose gold plated, the watch pays homage to the 1920s: the Golden Age that preceded the Great Depression.

The watch is powered by Frederique Constant’s FC-392 chronograph movement based on the famous (and quite expensive) ETA Valjoux 7750 25 jewel automatic caliber. Beating at 28,800 alternations per hour, the movement features power reserve of 42 hours, Glucydur balance and Incablock anti-shock protection.

The movement is hidden inside a 43 mm stainless steel case. Its caseback cover is made of solid steel but nevertheless features FC’s trademark porthole-styled cutout exhibiting a part of the finely decorated movement.

Unlike most chronographs in the sub-2000 Euro price range, the Frederique Constant Runabout watch features a classic, unobtrusive design. Although its three mandatory chronograph dials are nicely blended into the dial, their readings are absolutely legible and wouldn’t require excessive concentration.

Like the “Healey Le Mans” Limited Edition timepiece, this one is also available in a gift box with a miniature copy of a Runabout yacht.

As usual, Frederique Constant offers good value for small money.

From www.fratellowatches.com:

Frédérique Constant went from a rather unknown Geneva brand with both quartz and (ETA) mechanical movements to a brand that can add itself to the list of the lucky few [watch brands] with an inhouse mechanical movement. Therefore, Frédérique Constant becomes an interesting target for the more serious watch collectors and buyers.
