Frederique Constant FC-530G3B6 Classics Index Small Seconds Automatic Watch in Blue Dial
The Frederique Constant FC-530G3B6 Classics Index Small Seconds Automatic mechanical wristwatch combines the FC-530 automatic movement with a blue dial featuring grained stamped finishing, applied silver indexes filled with white luminous treatment and a small seconds counter at 6 o'clock. A brushed and polished two-part stainless steel case, anti-reflective sapphire crystal and brown croco-style leather strap with tone-on-tone stitching complete its modern, understated look. Hours, minutes and date functions complement the separate seconds display, bringing practical timekeeping to its contemporary styling.
Key Features
FC-530 Automatic Movement
The Frederique Constant runs on energy released by a wound spring, rather than a battery. An oscillating weight winds that spring as your arm moves, putting the motion of wearing the watch to work. This automatic mechanism brings mechanical timekeeping to the Classics Index Small Seconds design.
Brushed and Polished Stainless Steel
Contrasting surface finishes give the Frederique Constant's round, two-part case its understated character. Brushed and polished stainless steel pairs a silver-tone exterior with the silver dial indexes, balancing the textured blue face with a contemporary look.
Textured Blue Dial and Small Seconds
The small seconds display gives passing seconds their own counter at 6 o'clock, a distinct reference alongside the hours, minutes and date functions. Stamped grain adds texture to the blue brass dial, while the applied silver hour indexes carry white luminous treatment. The combination brings together the collection's modern styling and clearly defined timekeeping elements.
Anti-Reflective Sapphire Crystal
For checking the time under changing light, the Frederique Constant uses sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating that deflects light. The crystal is also impact and shatter resistant, adding protection over the blue dial.
Brown Croco-Style Leather Strap
The Frederique Constant finishes its silver-tone and blue palette with brown leather in a croco-style pattern. Tone-on-tone stitching keeps the detailing understated, while a buckle secures the supplied strap around your wrist.
