Frédérique Constant Vintage Rally Healey Automatic green dial leather strap 40 mm

A watch inspired by the world of motor racing

The Frédérique Constant Vintage Rally Healey Automatic belongs to a very specific universe: that of the golden age of British motorsport. Born from the partnership between the Geneva-based Maison and the legendary Austin-Healey brand, this collection pays tribute to a time when elegance and performance went hand in hand on both roads and racetracks.

For several years, Frédérique Constant has partnered with prestigious automotive events, celebrating the spirit of the “gentleman drivers” — enthusiasts who combine style, mastery and attention to detail. This watch fully embodies that philosophy, capturing the essence of vintage racing while translating it into a contemporary timepiece.

More than just a watch, it evokes a true lifestyle, that of lovers of fine mechanics, where every detail matters, whether in an engine or a calibre.

A vintage design with strong automotive codes

The deep green dial, directly inspired by the iconic “British Racing Green”, is one of the most distinctive elements of this model. This legendary shade, historically associated with British racing cars, gives the watch a strong and instantly recognizable identity.

Legibility remains central to the design, with applied indexes and luminescent hands ensuring clear readability in all conditions. The overall aesthetic is clean and faithful to classic three-hand watches, while subtly incorporating references to the automotive world.

The perforated leather strap completes this racing spirit. Inspired by vintage driving gloves, it provides both comfort and character, strengthening the direct connection to the world of rallies and classic cars.

A classic and well-balanced case

With its 40 mm steel case, this Vintage Rally Healey offers ideal proportions for a versatile watch. Neither too bold nor too discreet, it adapts easily to all wrists and situations.

The sapphire crystal effectively protects the dial while ensuring excellent legibility, and the 50-meter water resistance allows for confident everyday use.

On the back of the watch, the solid caseback is engraved with the Healey logo, a detail particularly appreciated by enthusiasts and collectors. This signature enhances the exclusive and emotional dimension of the model, recalling its direct connection to the automotive world.

A reliable and proven automatic movement

This watch is powered by the FC-301 automatic calibre, a movement renowned for its robustness and reliability. Based on a proven architecture, it offers a power reserve of approximately 38 hours and beats at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour.

Designed for everyday use, this movement ensures stable accuracy and simplified maintenance, perfectly meeting the expectations of enthusiasts seeking an accessible and reliable automatic watch.

This technical choice aligns with Frédérique Constant’s philosophy: offering high-quality mechanical watches without compromising reliability, while maintaining a coherent positioning.

A watch designed as a passion object

The Vintage Rally Healey goes beyond its technical specifications: it belongs to a complete universe. Each model is delivered in a dedicated presentation box, often accompanied by a miniature Austin-Healey, further strengthening the connection to the automotive world.

This type of detail fully contributes to the experience, transforming the watch into a collector’s item as much as an everyday accessory.

Accessible, distinctive and rich in history, this piece appeals both to watch enthusiasts and lovers of fine automobiles. A watch that celebrates a heritage while remaining resolutely contemporary.
