This model features a polished 316L stainless steel case with a modest diameter of 39 mm and a thickness of 11.65 mm, ensuring natural comfort on the wrist. The case back is screwed down, giving the watch a water resistance of 5 ATM (50 meters). The slightly domed sapphire crystal, treated against scratches, ensures both protection and clarity.A beige dial with a subtle sheenThis model is adorned with a sandblasted beige dial, with a soft, luminous texture that evokes fine sand or polished stone. This delicate finish plays with the light to offer a rendering that is both natural and refined, reinforcing the watch’s elegant character. The applied hour-markers and polished steel hands are luminescent, ensuring excellent legibility at all times. At 6 o’clock, the small seconds counter discreetly punctuates the whole, while the minute track underlines the rigor of a dial designed for balance and clarity. A refined choice for those seeking a luminous, sober and singular aesthetic.A proven Swiss automatic movementThe watch is powered by an automatic caliber based on the Sellita SW260-1, oscillating at 28,800 vibrations per hour. It offers a power reserve of 38 hours and is naturally recharged by the movement of the wrist. This version includes a small seconds complication at 6 o’clock, adding further mechanical refinement while underlining Frédérique Constant’s desire to combine watchmaking tradition with contemporary efficiency.A steel bracelet with masterful comfortThe watch comes with a 316L stainless steel bracelet, alternating brushed and polished finishes for a subtle and sophisticated look.
