High Quality

All Frédérique Constant watches are assembled by hand, one-by-one. Watchmakers need extensive training and experience to be able to assemble the fine components to a high-quality watch. Watches are assembled in a dust-free and air-controlled area with various proprietary and custom made machineries. During the past years, Frédérique Constant heavily invested in new state of the art Quality Control Equipement.


Manufacture in Plan-Les-Ouates

The new Frédérique Constant manufacture in Plan-les-Ouates measures 3200 square meters, divided over four floors, offering an attractive working environment for our watchmakers in the sectors of movement component production, calibre assembly, watch assembly, and extensive quality control. Numerically controlled machines of the latest generation are located in a large atelier in the basement, where all component manufacturing is concentrated. Calibre and watch assembly, as well as state-of-the-art quality control is primarily organized on the first floor of the new Frédérique Constant building.




Each and every watch passes through the following quality control tests:



A fast tumbler exposing the watch to a strong rotation force


A custom-made rotation device that simulates the movement of the wrist


After above machine exposures, a full manual functionality check


Timing accuracy test in three to five positions


Water resistance test with the revolutionary Deltarox test device


Extensive visual inspection for miniscule scratches, particles and discoloration
