It is a special creation that holds a special place in Frédérique Constant’s history. A true travel icon presented for the first time in 2012, the Classics Worldtimer Manufacture, now a must, is celebrating its 10-year anniversary in 2022.
To mark the event, Frédérique Constant is now presenting two exclusive limited editions, to the delight of fine watch collectors and fans.
To celebrate this anniversary in a befitting way, Frédérique Constant has decided to take a new path and break with traditional watchmaking by offering its icon a journey into Web 3.0: the Classics Worldtimer Manufacture has become an NFT.
The creation of exclusive NFTs of the Classics Worldtimer Manufacture will be entrusted to Rarecubes, a Geneva-based studio specialised in blockchain technology. More details will soon be available on the official Frédérique Constant website.
The two versions on offer are coloured a deep blue which represents the oceans of the central planisphere, executed in relief and in grey. All around luminescent hour-markers are applied to ensure perfect readability, even at night – like the hour and minute hands, marked in the same way. Setting the finishing touch, a white disc displaying 24 cities appears on the flange. Finally, at 6 o’clock the date is displayed by a hand sweeping around a blue, fine sunray guilloché dial.
The first version, rarer and more prestigious, will be limited to just 88 pieces and offers an 18-carat pink gold case. The second, produced in steel, will be limited to 1,888 pieces. The hands of the hours, minutes and seconds – as well as the contour of the indexes - also elegantly reflect the case, using the same hue. Sharing the same 42mm diameter, these two timepieces are worn on a navy blue alligator strap with a folding clasp, adorned with the emblematic seal of the Frédérique Constant Manufacture, an eternal passport for escape.
