Quality – Design - Innovation
The Geneva-based company Frédérique Constant was founded in 1904, by Mr Constant Stas, and started out making printed clock dials for the watch industry. The company’s name was created from the amalgamation of two names, the company’s founders, Frédérique Schreiner (1881-1969) and Constant Stas (1880-1967).
The current Managing Director, Peter Stas, is a 4th generation descendant of Constant Stas and has continued to carry the family’s torch for producing exceptional timepieces. The company as it is today, was born in 1988, from the passion that Aletta and Peter Stas share for creating refined watches.
With a passion for innovative design and craftsmanship, Frédérique Constant has moved with the times and won an international reputation for producing luxury Swiss timepieces, for watch lovers and connoisseurs alike. The company invests massively in innovation to continually feed the creative process and ensure that their watches encompass outstanding technical features as well as aesthetic beauty. They use contemporary cutting-edge computer software in their design and development processes, and hand-assemble every piece. This, followed by their rigorous approach to quality-control ensures that their exacting standards are met and maintained.
Right from the conception of a new model, the utmost attention and care is given to the design and development of the smallest and most detailed parts of every watch. With hand-polished cases, refined and decorated dials and hand-applied indexes, the attention to detail is breath-taking. The company want nothing less than 100% customer satisfaction for both the design and comfort of their watches, the exemplar of wearability.
Most of the world’s famous watch manufacturers are based in Geneva. This concentration of master horologists in the same location contributes to the company’s success and helps them to remain at the forefront of precision watchmaking.
