The Frederique Constant Manufacture Classic Worldtimer FC-718LA4H6 is an exceptional Swiss timepiece that combines sophisticated Worldtimer functionality, an in-house Manufacture movement and a spectacular genuine blue lapis lazuli dial. Created as a tribute to Frederique Constant’s Manufacture watchmaking expertise, this exclusive model is limited to just 718 pieces worldwide.

The 42 mm polished stainless steel case houses a striking natural lapis lazuli dial, whose deep blue colour and unique mineral texture give every watch an individual character. For the first time in this model, lapis lazuli is used not only for the main dial but also for the decentralised date display at 6 o’clock. Surrounding the dial is a white city ring representing the 24 principal time zones, complemented by a 24-hour day/night indication.

At the heart of the watch beats the FC-718 Manufacture automatic calibre, a movement developed and assembled entirely in-house by Frederique Constant. Operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, with 26 jewels and a 38-hour power reserve, it displays hours, minutes, central seconds, date and Worldtimer functions. Most impressively, all functions can be adjusted using a single crown, eliminating the need for additional pushers or correctors and making the Worldtimer remarkably intuitive to operate.

The movement itself is beautifully decorated with Perlage and circular Côtes de Genève finishing, and can be admired through the transparent engraved case back. The individual limited-edition number is engraved both on the movement and on the case back, further emphasising the exclusivity of this 718-piece edition.

The watch is completed with an elegant dark blue alligator leather strap featuring contrasting off-white stitching and a folding clasp. Its 12.55 mm thickness, 5 ATM water resistance and timeless 42 mm proportions make it a sophisticated companion for business, travel and special occasions alike.

The Frederique Constant Manufacture Classic Worldtimer FC-718LA4H6 is more than a travel watch: it is a showcase of Swiss Manufacture expertise, combining natural lapis lazuli, an in-house automatic movement and one of the most practical complications in modern mechanical watchmaking.
