CLASSIC WORLDTIMER MANUFACTURE



WATCHES FOR ELA: FREDERIQUE CONSTANT OFFERS A UNIQUE MANUFACTURE CREATION


For its participation in the Watches for ELA charity auction organised by ELA International (European Leukodystrophy Association), Frederique Constant has created a unique version of its new Classic Worldtimer Manufacture, equipped with the FC-719 movement. For the first time, the timepiece is presented with a cherry-red dial and a bezel set with 70 diamonds. The auction, conducted by Christie’s, will take place on 9 November 2026.

This philanthropic cause is closely linked to Frederique Constant’s history. As Niels Eggerding, CEO of Frederique Constant, explains: “At Frederique Constant, our ‘Live Your Passion’ motto celebrates everyone who puts their passion, altruism and commitment at the service of causes that make a difference. Since 2009, we have supported organisations working in healthcare, recognising the passion, commitment and perseverance of medical professionals and researchers. Our support for ELA fully reflects these shared values, helping to advance research and bring hope to families affected by leukodystrophies. Through this partnership, we pay tribute to those whose passion helps protect and improve lives”.

A CONTEMPORARY ICON

REINTERPRETED

The Classic Worldtimer Manufacture conceals a complication that provides a simultaneous, real-time view of the time across 24 reference time zones. The FC-719 movement benefits from an optimised power reserve. Previously 38 hours, it now extends to 72 hours.
