Frederique Constant Watch

Since the 18th century, Geneva has been an important center for the development and production of high quality mechanical timepieces. Geneva watchmakers have acquired a unique position as masters of this particular craft. The workshops and offices of Frédérique Constant are located near Geneva. Read all about the Frédérique Constant watches from Brunott. 

Passion for mechanical watches

The Frédérique Constant company was born out of a passion for mechanical watches. Dutch founder Peter C. Stas (Gouda, 1963) and his wife Aletta Bax began this successful adventure in 1988. The name of the company is an amalgamation of the names of Peter Stas' great-grandparents; Frédérique Schreiner (1881-1969) and Constant Stas (1880-1967).
In the early 1900s, Constant Stas was active as a manufacturer of clock dials. Today, only a few watchmakers, even in Switzerland, are still capable of producing complicated, high-quality mechanical timepieces. Frédérique Constant is one of them, and manufactures timepieces with fully dust- and waterproof watch cases, protecting the fine mechanics. This is only possible because of great dedication and commitment throughout the process, from design to final assembly. Frédérique Constant's Heart Beat Manufacture is perhaps the finest example of this.

A classic Frédérique Constant watch looking to the future

As an independent manufacturer and thanks to the good cooperation with suppliers, Frédérique Constant has an important position within the precision watchmaking industry. The watchmakers employed by Frédérique Constant also make a difference. Most have been trained at the specialized vocational schools of Geneva and La Chaux-de-Fonds, in the Swiss Jura and have first gained experience at other renowned brands.
In addition to the technical qualities of the watches, Frédérique Constant places great importance on the quality of the design. Trends and customer preferences play a role, as does autonomous classical beauty.
