The latest iteration of the <strong>Manufacture Classic Tourbillon<\/strong>, a three-hand watch in pink gold with a tailor-made movement, honors both milestones. The name-giving grand complication is displayed at 6 o\u2019clock on the very minimalist dial, which has an elegant anthracite tone with a sunray finish and manually applied pink gold indexes.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img src=\"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/frederique-constant-celebrates-35-years-with-the-manufacture-classic-tourbillon.jpg\" alt class=\"wp-image-148276\"><\/figure>\n<p>Consisting of 81 components, the cage of the minute tourbillon indicates the small seconds via a small pink gold hand when revolving. Fitted with a non-magnetic silicon escapement wheel and anchor, this regulating organ is also unaffected by variations in temperature, which contributes to the precision rate.<\/p>\n<p>While the first generations of the self-winding manufacture caliber FC-980, which was first introduced in 2009, revealed the tourbillon through a comma-shaped cut-out in the dial, it is now displayed through a circle. It goes without saying that it is beautifully finished.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"3000\" height=\"2242\" src=\"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/frederique-constant-celebrates-35-years-with-the-manufacture-classic-tourbillon-1.jpg\" alt class=\"wp-image-148280\"><\/figure>\n<p>The same rings true for the movement which comes to life through the exhibition case back. It shows intricate details such as perlage, beveling, Geneva Waves, mirror polishing, and a partially skeletonized oscillating weight. While previous editions measured 42mm in diameter, the latest edition comes with a diameter of 39mm and a height of 10.9mm.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"3000\" height=\"2000\" src=\"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/frederique-constant-celebrates-35-years-with-the-manufacture-classic-tourbillon-2.jpg\" alt class=\"wp-image-148279\"><\/figure>\n<p>Limited to 150 pieces, the Frederique Constant Classic Manufacture Tourbillon retails for $27,995.<\/p>\n<p><em>To learn more, visit Frederique Constant, <a href=\"https:\/\/frederiqueconstant.com\/watches\/collection\/manufacture\/manufacture_classic-tourbillon\/fc-980g3h9\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/frederiqueconstant.com\/watches\/collection\/manufacture\/manufacture_classic-tourbillon\/fc-980g3h9\/\">here.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.watchtime.com\/wristwatch-industry-news\/frederique-constant-celebrates-35-years-with-the-manufacture-classic-tourbillon\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2023 Frederique Constant celebrates its 35th anniversary and the brand coincidingly made its debut&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23993,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1107,1108],"tags":[1111,1112,1113],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23992"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23992"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23992\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23993"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23992"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23992"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pureluxurymag.com\/watchnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23992"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
