Frederique Constant’s final launch of its 35th anniversary year is a pair of watches designed by French DJ, musician and producer Tristan Casara — better known by his stage name, The Avener.
Both steel Highlife models, which were unveiled at Dubai Watch Week, have musical dials.
One has a blue dial with a depiction of frequencies monitored on a recording studio console, the other, in black DLC with a black dial, shows how sound waves from a base drop radiate.
There will be 432 of each piece made, a reference to 432Hz, a frequency said to be in perfect harmony with your body.
The 39mm steel watches, powered by automatic FC-303 calibres, have integrated, but interchangeable between a steel bracelet and a choice of a rubber or leather strap.
They come packaged in a small flight case, which will be familiar to any musician on the road.
This is the second collaboration with The Avener, and a partnership that Frederique Constant hopes will appeal to the artist’s young pop-urban fans.
The black model is priced at £2,195 while the blue piece is £1,895.
