I love FC! I think their watches are beautiful! I also believe in a couple of decades we are gonna look back and think ‘why the hell didn’t I buy one when it was that price?!?!’
Got here because it was LOVE at first sight when I saw some of their pieces last night. Glad to know they started the open heart design. Looking forward to own one of their pieces this year. :)
I am a proud owner of the Heart Beat caliber for 16 years and never worn. ❤ It is such a beautiful watch. Thank you Peter for this video and now I appreciate it even more.
Refreshingly humble in describing what they have achieved. I have purchased many watches from Rolex, Omega, Panerai amd seiko. I am Haiti await the arrival of my first FC in a few weeks.
Trust me you’ll love their stuff. I do not have big budget in getting those big name watches, yet, and accidentally found out about FC. Bought one, loving it and surely getting more from them.
I’ve not really looked into the FC brand, but as of late I’ve been looking into expanding my collection, and spotted a very nice FC watch. Price wise it’s a bit pricey but compared to other more well known high end brands it becomes an excellent price. I was 80 to 90 percent on wherever I should buy it or not, but after watching this, it’s now 100%!
Peter and Aletta Stas, many congratulations have created such elegant watches, with class, distinction, very beautiful models, it does not ask anything of high-end luxury watches, I just bought the quartz perpetual calendar, it is a great technology fused with the beauty at very reasonable prices, I do not bring a Patek Philippe, but I feel just as happy because I bring a Frederique Constant with high quality finishes, what I do notice is that marketing and advertising work is more lacking, there are not many videos of Frederique Constant on TH-cam, you make watches not for the money, but for the love of watchmaking art. 10/08/2022
@@Monochrome-watches I guess it's down to each person to judge. I've got a feeling it's been beneficial for Citizen. As, since then they've done the Tsuyosa. Unfortunately Tissot might have liked FC silicon idea, little too much. I still think FC are fabulous. 😊
Excellent and Honest account from Peter - much respect for the founders and the hard work that this brand has done

No one will think that, people have trash taste and like more mainstream brands. This brand is special.

Great story
Very thought provoking.
Great video keep em coming
excellent 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks
Liked it and it helped me to decide on one of their tourbillions :D
Adopt me. I will take over. 😅
I worry when fabulous companies like this are bought by industry giants, like they have, by Citizen.
Citizen bought FC in 2016, how would you judge they are doing? Better or not, compared to before the acquisition?
