|---|---|---|
| Frédérique Constant FC-350RBR5B6 | The brown-dial Classics Runabout Automatic GMT FC-350RBR5B6 is the more literal of two homages to vintage wooden speedboats. Vertical lines on the dial recall varnished planks, while a warm leather strap extends that nautical palette. The 42mm polished stainless-steel case surrounds a 24-hour scale and central arrow-tipped GMT hand, with the date neatly placed at six o’clock. | Frédérique Constant official reference; independent dated editorial coverage ↗ 2026-07-02 |
| Frédérique Constant FC-350RN5B6 | With a dark navy dial and patterned black rubber strap, the Classics Runabout Automatic GMT FC-350RN5B6 gives the Riva Historical Society partnership a sportier appearance. Vertical surface lines evoke a wooden foredeck, set against a circular 24-hour display for a second time zone. Applied numerals at three, nine and twelve contribute an intentionally vintage maritime character. | Frédérique Constant official reference; independent dated editorial coverage ↗ 2026-07-02 |
