Specifically, the legibility of a dial renowned for its originality and a diameter no longer entirely in line with market demands were the areas requiring attention. It was precisely in these two areas that the manufacture focused its efforts, updating the watch without compromising its aesthetic essence whilst enhancing its mechanical performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>THE CASE AND THE DIAL<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From an aesthetic perspective,\u00a0<strong>Frederique Constant<\/strong>\u00a0has worked on the case diameter and the dial layout. Starting with the diameter, the new\u00a0<strong>Classic Worldtimer Manufacture<\/strong>\u00a0models feature a reduction of 2 mm, from 42 to 40. For fans of the original version, the brand will continue to offer the 42 mm models in its range, but the updated versions undoubtedly stand out for their more contemporary look and improved wearability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_08.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_08-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_08-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_08-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_08-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_08-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_08-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_08.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We note a slight increase in the thickness of the\u00a0<strong>steel case<\/strong>, from 12.25 mm to 12.53 mm \u2013 mainly due to the new calibre \u2013 though this does not compromise comfort on the wrist. This is also thanks to the fact that the manufacturer has retained the classic three-part structure of the case, which remains elegant thanks to its characteristic polished finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_09.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_09-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_09-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_09-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_09-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_09-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_09-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_09.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The updates to the dial, on the other hand, are far more noticeable, as they serve to streamline and simplify its design. This was no easy task, given the very nature of a\u00a0<strong>worldtimer watch<\/strong>, where the wealth of information \u2013 and the resulting clutter \u2013 is one of its key features. The previous version of the\u00a0<strong>Classic Worldtimer Manufacture<\/strong>, which was very well known, featured the 24-hour ring, the city ring, the embossed world map and, very prominent, a large hand-operated date display at 6 o\u2019clock. It was precisely this date display that slightly detracted from the overall legibility, which remained excellent despite the large amount of information to be read: the date display partially obscured the city and 24-hour rings running beneath it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_11.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_11-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_11-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_11-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_11-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_11-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_11-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_11.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The solution, then, was to remove the date display altogether. A bold move, as it was one of the watch\u2019s most distinctive features. Yet it was a move that was well received and, as we noted at the outset, won the approval of virtually everyone. The new\u00a0<strong>Classic Worldtimer Manufacture<\/strong>\u00a0is, in fact, more balanced, with every piece of information clearly visible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>THE NEW CLASSIC WORLDTIMER MANUFACTURE MODELS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Frederique Constant\u2019s<\/strong>\u00a0designers have retained the same colour scheme of white and blue that characterised some of the previous models, focusing instead on the details. The result is three new variants, with various colour and strap options. There is a\u00a0<strong>Classic Worldtimer Manufacture<\/strong>\u00a0featuring navy blue oceans on the dial surrounding the embossed grey continents, whilst the hour and city rings are also blue. Of particular interest is the version with gradient blue oceans and a gren\u00e9 finish, a light blue and dark blue 24-hour ring, and a cream-coloured hour ring. This version comes with an interchangeable blue alligator strap or a five-row steel bracelet, with alternating satin-finished and mirror-polished surfaces. The navy blue model is available with a bracelet only, featuring a convenient butterfly clasp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_07.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_07-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_07-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_07-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_07-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_07-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_07-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_07.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_04-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29672\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_04-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_04-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_04-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_04-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_04-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_04.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To mark the launch of the new collection, the manufacture has also adorned the\u00a0<strong>Classic Worldtimer Manufacture<\/strong>\u00a0with precious stones. There is, in fact, a\u00a0<strong>limited-edition<\/strong>\u00a0model, produced in a run of 88 pieces, featuring 70 brilliant-cut diamonds on the bezel \u2013 totalling 0.785 carats \u2013 and 12 diamond-set hour markers, with a combined weight of 0.053 carats. Its ice-blue dial with a sunburst finish is particularly striking, against which the grey embossed world map stands out. The watch is complemented by two interchangeable alligator straps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_06.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_06-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_06-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_06-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_06-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_06-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_06-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_06.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_02-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29671\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_02-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_02-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_02-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_02-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_02-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_02.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All the new models fully confirm the nature of the\u00a0<strong>Classic Worldtimer Manufacture<\/strong>\u00a0as a true\u00a0<strong>world timer<\/strong>. The simultaneous display of the time across all 24 reference time zones is accompanied by the names of the cities representing them, shown around the edge of the dial. When the home or reference city is aligned at 12 o\u2019clock, the 24-hour disc indicates the corresponding time in all other time zones, alongside a two-tone day\/night indicator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>THE FREDERIQUE CONSTANT FC-719 CALIBRE<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A final word on the calibre, where the brand has made another significant update. Firstly, this is the 35th movement developed by the manufacture in its short history. The\u00a0<strong>FC-719 automatic calibre<\/strong>\u00a0is essentially an evolution of the\u00a0<strong>FC-718<\/strong>, the most obvious improvement being the increase in power reserve. The power reserve has been increased by around 90 per cent, rising from 38 to\u00a0<strong>72 hours<\/strong>. This result was achieved both by lengthening the mainspring and by revising the composition of the metal alloy from which it is made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_10.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_10-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_10-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_10-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_10.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The movement \u2013 visible through the transparent case back \u2013 operates at\u00a0<strong>28,800 vibrations per hour<\/strong>\u00a0and is distinguished by its meticulous finishing, which includes both perlage and radial\u00a0<strong>C\u00f4tes de Gen\u00e8ve<\/strong>\u00a0patterns. The satin-finished rotor is also decorated with a spiral motif. The work carried out by <strong>Frederique Constant\u2019s<\/strong>\u00a0engineers on the calibre, in terms of its dimensions, is particularly noteworthy. The new\u00a0<strong>world time module<\/strong>\u00a0adds just 24 components and 1.6 mm in thickness to the previous movement: an excellent result for a complication that displays all 24 reference time zones simultaneously in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_03-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29670\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_03-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_03-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_03-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_03-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_03-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_03.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beauty of the watch also lies in the fact that the new version of\u00a0<strong>Frederique Constant\u2019s Classic Worldtimer Manufacture<\/strong>\u00a0translates mechanical complexity into ease of use. All adjustments can be made via the large onion-shaped crown, which is also a hallmark of the collection. To wind the watch, pull the crown out to the first position; to select the city on the time zone disc, move it to the second position and turn it anti-clockwise; the local time is set by pulling the crown out further, to the third position. This approach not only enhances practicality but also offers a significant advantage: the absence of integrated pushers helps to maintain the case\u2019s\u00a0<strong>water resistance<\/strong>\u00a0up to 5 bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>CONCLUSIONS AND PRICES<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Essentially, the restyling process that led to the launch of the new\u00a0<strong>Classic Worldtimer Manufacture<\/strong>\u00a0models demonstrates\u00a0<strong>Frederique Constant\u2019s<\/strong>\u00a0ability to listen to market demands and respond accordingly. The trend towards smaller case diameters has led to a revised case design. The increased power reserve meets the growing demand for reliable movements that allow the watch to be left in a drawer for two days or more without issue. The clean design of the dial appeals to those who prefer an aesthetic that does not compromise functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"571\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_12-1024x571.jpg\" alt=\"Frederique Constant Classic Worldtimer Manufacture\" class=\"wp-image-29664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_12-1024x571.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_12-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_12-768x428.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_12-1536x856.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_12-600x335.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Frederique_Constant_Classic_Manufacture_Worldtimer_Watch_Insanity_12.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In short, this is a good demonstration of the brand\u2019s ability to position a product with undiminished appeal on the market. All this without compromising the brand\u2019s commitment to craftsmanship, even when it comes to pricing. As\u00a0<strong>Frederique Constant<\/strong>\u00a0has always aimed to offer high-quality, affordable <strong>Swiss watches<\/strong>, its approach to positioning has also been carefully considered. The\u00a0<strong>diamond-set model costs \u20ac 7,995<\/strong>, whilst\u00a0<strong>the other two are priced at \u20ac 4,995<\/strong>. Although they cost \u20ac 400 more than the 42 mm models with a date display, the brand has managed to keep them under \u20ac 5,000. This is a sound strategy in an increasingly competitive price segment, which is often populated by watches that fall short in terms of quality. This is certainly not the case here<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>By Davide Passoni<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frederique Constant
