The Frederique Constant Highlife Chronograph Automatic FC-391V4NH2B men's watch belongs to the Highlife series and thanks to its versatile design it is particularly suitable for everyday wear. The Highlife range is characterised by distinctive cases with integrated bracelets and straps.
The case of the Frederique Constant FC-391V4NH2B is made of stainless steel with a partial PVD finish in rose gold, as is its bracelet. An extra rubber strap is also included. Both the clasp and strap have quick-release clasps and can therefore be changed quickly and easily without tools. Inside the case, the FC-391 Swiss mechanical movement (based on the La Joux-Perret Chronographe Manufacture L100) with automatic winding works reliably. It operates at a frequency of 28,800 semi-frequencies per hour and has 26 jewels. This movement has a chronograph function, i.e. a stopwatch. The large central seconds hand serves as the stopwatch, the sub-dial at the 9 o'clock position houses the minute counter, while the sub-dial at the 6 o'clock position serves as the hour counter. Also worth mentioning is the extended power reserve of 60 hours. The movement's operation can be observed through a transparent escapement. At position 4-5 we find a practical date display.
The elegant and at the same time clear dial with a subtle globe motif is protected by a sapphire crystal, which is maximally scratch-resistant. The anti-reflective coating guarantees excellent legibility even in the harsh sunlight. The water resistance of this model is 100m (10 ATM), so it can handle contact with water such as swimming.
