Frederique Constant’s official US launch page introduces Classics Premiere watches with polished steel cases, five-link steel bracelets and Bermuda-grey or salmon-pink dials. A separate US product listing documents a cloud-blue bracelet model, reference FC-301BL3B6B, priced at $2,895. The brand’s pages do not establish whether the blue watch belongs to the same launch or how it relates to the two named launch colors.
What is new about the full-steel Classics Premiere?
The launch page presents the five-link steel bracelet as the notable update to earlier leather-strap versions. It pairs the bracelet with a polished steel case and a sapphire caseback that shows the automatic FC-301 calibre. The dial options named on that page are Bermuda grey and salmon pink.
Frederique Constant describes the bracelet as five links across, with two mirror-polished links among three others. The launch-page dials combine grained and circular sunray finishes with Arabic numerals, pomme hands and a railtrack minute marker.
Where does the blue edition fit?
The cloud-blue watch is documented separately on Frederique Constant’s US product page as FC-301BL3B6B. That listing specifies a five-link bracelet and a two-level dial with matte and sandblasted blue surfaces, plus applied polished Arabic numerals. The official pages reviewed do not say that this reference was part of the same announcement as the Bermuda-grey and salmon-pink editions, so the color lineups should not be treated as a confirmed three-watch launch.

The international product page identifies the FC-301’s base as LJPG100 and specifies 24 jewels and a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour. Its specifications otherwise describe the same reference, but its listed lug width conflicts with the US page: the US page gives 18 mm, while the international page gives 20 mm. Because the brand’s pages disagree, verify the fit with Frederique Constant before buying a replacement strap; the international page’s strap table alone does not resolve the discrepancy.
