This year, Frederique Constant introduces the new Classics Manufacture. Designed and produced with utmost care, the sophisticated dial shows a remarkable refinement. Decoration of the movement is to the highest standards, with Côtes de Genève and Collimaçon patterns, brightly shining due to the rhodium finishing. The new Classics Manufacture is based on the second generation of the Maxime movement, cal. FC-710 and features an added center seconds hand. Apart from stainless steel, the Classics Manufacture is also available with a case finished in rosegold plating. Based on this new caliber, the young Manufacture has also developed a new Worldtimer Manufacture caliber, the FC-718, featured in two different dial versions and both manufactured in a limited edition of 1888 pieces. A duo of stunningly beautiful timepieces!
经过详细考虑,康斯登决定制造自家机芯以解决现成存在的机芯所带来的局限。于是在2001年开始发展「自家心跳机芯系列」,机芯桥板在摆轮前方固定,而游丝也可在前方持续反复卷动,令心跳系列更有魅力。康斯登并特意为这新颖的设计申请了专利。自此,康斯登每次也会为所有崭新设计于推出市场前申请了专利。
过三年的发展及生产,首枚自家心跳机芯正式面世,是康斯登与日内瓦钟表专业学校,日内瓦科技大学及廘特丹萨金钟表学校合作的一大突破。2004年,自家心跳机芯获得空前成功,2005年,康斯登自家心跳机花系列加入了月相﹑日期及手上链。
