Frederique Constant x French Foreign Legion Limited Editions
Frederique Constant has partnered with the French Foreign Legion to release two limited-edition watches, the Highlife Automatic and the Classics Index Small Seconds. These timepieces celebrate the elite unit by incorporating Legion insignia and design elements, focusing on the camaraderie and time spent after service rather than combat. Both models are limited to 888 pieces and will see a portion of proceeds donated to the French Foreign Legion Mutual Aid Association.

The Highlife Automatic features a 39mm stainless-steel case with brushed and polished surfaces, a golden-sand sandblasted dial, and a recessed French Foreign Legion seven-flame grenade emblem at 6 o'clock.
The Highlife Automatic is powered by the FC-303 automatic movement, based on the La Joux-Perret G100, offering a 68-hour power reserve.
The Highlife Automatic comes with three interchangeable straps: brown crocodile-patterned leather, stainless-steel bracelet, and black rubber, all with a quick-release system.
The Classics Index Small Seconds has a 39mm polished stainless-steel case, a charcoal grained dial with a small-seconds display at 6 o'clock, and the Legion emblem integrated into the sub-dial.
The Classics Index Small Seconds utilizes the FC-530 automatic calibre, based on the Sellita SW260-1, with a 38-hour power reserve.
The Classics Index Small Seconds is presented on a five-link stainless-steel bracelet and includes an additional brown leather strap, both with quick-release systems.
Both watches are presented in a wooden box with a detachable embroidered collaboration patch.
