{"product_id":"frederique-constant-moneta-fc-435bbl3s6-handwound-watch","title":"Frederique Constant Classics Moneta Handwinding 38.5mm FC-435BBL3S6","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Frederique Constant Classics Moneta Handwinding FC-435BBL3S6 is a limited-edition Swiss hand-wound dress watch that takes the collection's coin-edge signature into mechanical territory for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 38.5mm stainless steel case sits just 10.13mm tall, framing a grained dial that graduates from smoked salmon at the centre to black at the rim — a fluted inner flange, inspired by the milled edge of a coin, catches the light around it. Polished Dauphine hands and mirror-finished applied indexes bring 1950s restraint to the face, and a black alligator strap with fine round scales on a pin buckle completes a watch that reads as vintage without borrowing from any one era. Water resistance is 5 ATM, which covers everyday wear comfortably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eInside is the FC-435 calibre, a manual-winding movement built on a La Joux-Perret base, running at 28,800 vibrations per hour with 29 jewels and a 63-hour power reserve — enough to set it down Friday evening and pick it up Monday still keeping time. Small seconds at 6 o'clock and the daily ritual of winding make this a piece for people who enjoy the mechanics of a 38mm manual-wind watch rather than merely tolerating them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEach of the 999 pieces produced worldwide is engraved \"ONE OF 999\" on the caseback. For a Swiss-made hand-wound dress watch under $4,000, it suits a suit cuff, a linen shirt and everything in between, and its unisex sizing wears equally well on a 15cm or 19cm wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat we love about this watch:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Moneta Handwinding FC-435BBL3S6 is the rare limited edition that earns the label — a genuinely new movement for the collection, a dial gradient that changes character with every light source, and a coin-edge flange nobody else is doing at this price. Australia's allocation is tiny and Starbuy has secured a single piece; when it goes, the next one is a secondary-market hunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a Pre-Order product that Ships in 1-3 Business Days from Sydney with Australia Post Express after arrival from Switzerland.
