The Frédérique Constant Vintage Rally Healey Chronograph Automatic FC‑397HLBN5B6 is a powerful tribute to classic racing heritage, Swiss precision, and bold masculine design. Limited to 1,888 pieces, this 42mm chronograph showcases a robust stainless‑steel case with an open caseback that reveals the refined automatic movement within—a hallmark of Frédérique Constant’s dedication to exceptional watchmaking.
The striking Healey blue sunray dial, framed by a deep navy flange, enhances legibility while channelling the spirit of vintage motorsport. Two chronograph counters—small seconds at 9 o’clock and a 30‑minute timer at 3 o’clock—are operated by sleek side pushers that reinforce the watch’s athletic, high‑performance character. Paired with a navy blue calfskin strap featuring contrast stitching, this timepiece evokes the craftsmanship and durability expected from a true gentleman driver’s watch.
Powered by the reliable FC‑397 automatic movement, this model delivers a generous 62‑hour power reserve and operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, ensuring smooth, accurate timekeeping.
Its bold design reflects Frédérique Constant’s longstanding passion for vintage car culture—a partnership spanning more than seventeen years with iconic events such as the Peking to Paris Motor Challenge, European Healey meetings, Retromobile showcases, and the Carrera Panamericana. This unwavering commitment to the world of rallying is embodied in every detail of the Vintage Rally Healey Chronograph, making it a standout piece in both engineering and style.
What we love about the Frédérique Constant Vintage Rally Healey Chronograph Automatic FC‑397HLBN5B6 - We love how this chronograph blends rugged motorsport energy with refined Swiss craftsmanship. The deep Healey blue dial, open caseback, and practical chronograph layout create a timepiece that feels bold, confident, and built for performance.
