Frederique Constant launched the new Hybrid Manufacture in New York, partnering with Oscar Nominated and Emmy Award Winning Actor, Mark Ruffalo, in presence of President & Founder Mr. Peter Stas to unveil the World’s First 3.0 Watch.
3.0 Watch is a combination of a Manufacture movement, Smart Watch Functions and Caliber Analytics.The FC-750 Hybrid Manufacture caliber is a revolutionary new caliber combining mechanical and electronical components. The connection between the watch and the Hybrid App is done by the pusher button located on the left side of the watch case.
The Hybrid Manufacture FC-750 caliber is in-house developed, in-house produced and in-house assembled. The caliber is patented. The mechanical part of the FC-750 is an in-house automatic caliber with date, set by the crown at 3 o’clock.
The electronic part of the FC-750 is also in-house developed, in-house produced and in-house assembled by the Brand. This electronic part of the caliber enables the Smart Functions of the Hybrid Manufacture watch.
“By integrating the two technologies inside a unique caliber, the technological challenge was to delete the negative magnetic effects between the mechanical and the electronical parts. This is how our highly skilled designers and watchmakers developed and patented a unique anti-magnetic shield case,” said the the luxury watch manufacture.
The event was held at the exclusive Carpenter’s Gallery where media, retailers, as well as VIPs of the brand experienced the unveiling of the hybrid manufacture. Guests discovered a technical and innovative marvel in watchmaking. Those in attendance experienced holographic formations of the timepiece’s movement showcasing the structural movement and innovative technology in 3D.
Frederique Constant Group President, Peter Stas presented the hybrid manufacture, followed by a Q&A between Mark Ruffalo and Entertainment Reporter, Bill McCuddy. Stas then announced the luxury brand’s donation of two of the first hybrid manufacture timepieces to an upcoming charity auction to benefit The Solutions Project, an organization that Mark Ruffalo is leading to move us to clean, renewable energy powered by the wind, water, and sun.
