Frederique Constant Austin Healey Limited Edition Gets Tribute Watch Right

Both work very well with the aesthetic of the car, which itself came in more than two colors. Frederique Constant has always represented excellent value through its watches as they offer reasonable prices for a good product. The Austin Healey Limited Edition watches will only have 1,888 pieces which will likely go quickly. The best part is that the watch presentation box comes with a model of the car. Now that is cool.See Frederique Constant watches on eBay here.See Frederique Constant watches on Amazon here. The watch dispenses with many of the gimmicks that a lot of racing watches have, such a chronograph with a tachymeter (that no one really uses).The large outlines font for some of the numbers as well as the faceted hour markers are a nice touch, and give it a sports sophisticated look. I am not in love with the "triple date window," but it does help with keeping the watch face symmetrical. The case is a good 43mm in size, the crystal is sapphire, and the water resistance is 100m meters. Interestingly enough, the ETA automatic movement (probably an ETA 2824-2) is decorated with perlage and cotes de Geneva polishing. A nice touch for this price point which is about $1000-$1500.The case is 18k gold plated, which is enough for me. The two color options are a black face and white face.
