Frederique Constant: Flyback Chronograph Manufacture
17 February 2020Frederique Constant presents two new variations on its Flyback Chronograph Manufacture collection with two-tone dial and silvered counters. The first model comes with a 42mm rose gold plated case and chocolate dial. The second, with steel case and blue dial.
The conventional flyback mechanism is based on a set of several column wheels that act as a system of clutches. The FC-760 calibre that operates the Flyback Chronograph Manufacture dispenses with this complexity, replacing the standard column wheel with a star-shaped wheel. This results in a thinner movement with fewer parts, just 96 of the entire movement’s 233 parts.
The new Flyback Chronograph Manufactures are equipped with baton indices, luminous hands and sapphire crystal case back. An alligator strap with deployment clasp completes the watches. (Price starting from € 3.895)
