As one of the younger brands in Switzerland to have established its own manufacture, Frédérique Constant enjoys a level of independence from the prominent movement suppliers. When they want to create a complicated movement, such as a world timer, for example, the Geneva brand is able to bring a design idea through to production with alacrity. Frédérique Constant has just updated its in-house world time offering with a newly designed gold-plated stainless steel case. It’s an affordable option well suited to younger collectors in search of in-house, complicated watchmaking. Price: $4,195
