Swiss luxury watch manufacturer, Frederique Constant has just revealed its latest collaboration with French artist seconde/seconde/. The two new Slimline Moonphase Date Manufacture timepieces are limited edition and feature a beautiful moonphase display with a cheeky dial and handwritten accents.
The result is two limited edition versions of theSlimline Moonphase Date Manufacturethat highlights the intricacy and uniqueness of Frederique Constant’s manual assembly with seconde/seconde/ humorous and playful style. Two versions of the Slimline Moonphase Date Manufacture are available, one in steel which is limited to 100 pieces and the second in steel with rose gold elements which is limited to 10 pieces.
The dial is complete with steel and silver crown, hands and applied hour markers, although the online-exclusive edition is displayed in rose gold. What really makes this watch stand out is the hour markers are uneven and seem to fall down the dial, giving it a sprinkle-like effect.

But the design doesn’t stop there. The Slimline Moonphase Date Manufacture has an open display case back where you can see the automatic movement in action, including its bi-directional oscillating rotor, blue screws and perlage graining on the base plate. The case back also has text that reads: “How do we tell the world that manual-assembly is at the core of our Manufacture? We asked artists seconde/seconde/. He took it too far.”
