Frédérique Constant New Flyback Chronograph At Baselworld

Frédérique Constant New Flyback Chronograph At Baselworld

The watch contains an all-new in-house movement, Caliber FC-760, whose flyback chronograph complication is inspired by models from the 1930s. The column wheel that governs the chronograph's start, stop, and reset functions rotates on bearings; unlike conventional column wheels, which have several columns, this one is star-shaped. Working in unison with with the operating lever, which is controlled by the start/stop push-piece, this star-shaped wheel is responsible for the mechanism's exceptionally smooth operation.

With the arrival of Spring comes a new optimism.  Colour is everywhere and sometimes not where you would expect to find it.  It's all about being bold. At the Spring/Summer 2017 show season splashes of colour were seen on the hands, ears and beneath the jawline.

A New Era For the Arms Race With Trump

A New Era For the Arms Race With Trump

For those who do not believe that history has a nasty habit of repeating itself, welcome to the 5th Industrialised arms race that has now officially started. The pedigree of this well-trodden, competitive process in the industrial age started with the 2nd Reich in the decade that leads to WW1 in 1914 and was followed by the rise of the 3rd Reich in the 1930s which led to WW2 in Europe. Coincidently, Japan flowed through to war in the Pacific from 1937 onwards.
