Frederique Constant Classics Manchette 'Onyx Dial'

To mark its first birthday, the Classics Manchette now comes in a gold-coloured version. The glam-rock icon by Frederique Constant sports a full-black onyx dial, a precious feature that lends the watch exquisitely stark contrast. Beautiful yet rebellious. More elegant and glamorous than ever thanks to its gold colour, and with a radical touch provided by its mineral dial. In a word: electrifying!

The Classics Manchette spans generations with rebellious spirit. An iconic timepiece from an era that embraced being bold, it embodies uninhibited, free-spirited watchmaking. It's not about complexity or exclusivity. It's about lightness. Accessory rather than essential. Rebellion rather than tradition.

The Classics Manchette from the Geneva-based manufacturer offers a sexy, glam-rock spin on the "wristwatch", in its most literal sense. A cuff-like strap with the faceted "Clou de Paris" motif repeated throughout, whose square shape matches that of the dial. A bold timepiece that rewrites the rules and balances "Swiss Made" elegance with unprecedented rock'n'roll style.

The new watch unveiled today is designed to bring a touch of provocative radiance to the collection. Against the new gold colour, the full-black onyx dial offers vivid, piercing contrast with its raw minerality. The striking interplay of light and shadow makes it easier to read the hour and minute hands on the monochrome dial.

The starting point of a collection on everyone's lips. That's a promise!
