A Groundbreaking Partnership: Frederique Constant's Entry into Professional Sports Sponsorships
Frederique Constant has officially launched its first watch collection developed in collaboration with the Pro Padel League. This highly anticipated release follows an earlier announcement of the partnership, signifying the Swiss watchmaker's initial venture into sponsoring a professional sports league. The alliance aims to reflect the dynamic nature of padel through expertly crafted timepieces.
Introducing the Highlife x PPL Automatic Limited Edition: A Symphony of Style and Endurance
The 39mm Highlife x PPL Automatic Limited Edition watch stands out with its robust stainless steel 316L case, showcasing a sophisticated mix of brushed and polished finishes. Its matte-grained blue dial, adorned with applied indexes and a date display at the three o'clock position, is protected by an anti-reflective, convex sapphire crystal. The dial features luminous elements for excellent readability in all lighting conditions. Powering this elegant timepiece is the FC-303 automatic caliber, boasting an impressive 68-hour power reserve and water resistance up to 10 ATM. A unique PPL-branded rubber strap in Cancha Blue and Copa Gold, reminiscent of padel racket grips, accompanies the watch, along with an interchangeable stainless steel bracelet for versatile styling.

For those preferring a more petite design, the 31mm Highlife x PPL Quartz Limited Edition offers similar signature design elements, including the matte-grained blue dial, luminous accents, and a date window. This model also provides the flexibility of a PPL-branded blue and soft white rubber strap and a stainless steel bracelet. Driven by the FC-240 quartz movement, it ensures an exceptional 60-month battery life and 5 ATM water resistance, making it both stylish and functional for any occasion.
