It is somewhat of an anachronism that a quality Watch Making brand can release Watches 'Seasonally', it smacks of diminishing the reputable name of any given brand to the level of being merely a fashion house. However, when the brand in question is famous both for quality AND excellent value, it is slightly more understandable. With this in mind for 2011 S/S we see the new Healey Chronograph by Frederique Constant.
So called as Frederique Constant sponsor Car events for the Austin Healey Vintage Motor Car in St Moritz and Le Mans, this Wrist Watch features a Nautical maritime type theme, to honour the renowned Runabout Yachts of the 1930's.
Engine wise this has an Automatic movement with a 42 hour power reserve, 25 jewel movement, constructed in-house at Frederique Constant's workshops, stainless steel with a 43mm stainless steel case, which is Waterproof to a depth of 100 meters. The dial includes Hours, Minutes, Seconds, Date and a mechanical 3 dial chronograph, and 2 operating pushers on the side.
In keeping with Constant's Great value ethos, this new Wrist-Watch has a recommended retail price of just £1920.
