Frederique Constant Highlife

Frederique Constant's sporty-elegant integrated-bracelet collection, and one of the best values in the category. Originally a 1990s line, Highlife was revived in 2020 with a cushion-round case, a textured 'globe' dial, and a clever tool-free system that swaps between the integrated bracelet, rubber, and leather straps included in the box. It runs from a simple automatic (some COSC-certified) up to Heart Beat and perpetual-calendar versions with FC's in-house movements. If you want the integrated-bracelet look without a luxury-sports price, this is the one.
