Frederique Constant, in its current form, was founded in 1988. Aletta Bax and Peter Stas launched their first collection in 1992, consisting of six models equipped with Swiss movements and assembled by a watchmaker in Geneva. Frederique Constant is involved in all stages of watch production, from initial design to final assembly. The watches manufactured under his brand are designed by Frederique Constant or by independent designers commissioned for a specific series of models. A great emphasis is placed on the design of the watch to keep up with trends and customer preferences. Frédérique Constant uses state-of-the-art software, primarily computer-aided design software, to assist in the watch design and development process.
