For two years, Frederique Constant has been working fervently on creating a silicon escapement wheel for its celebrated Manufacture Heart Beat movement. The brand is now proud to present a limited series of 188 timekeepers equipped with this famous escapement wheel, which does not require any lubricating. The use of silicon, an extremely hard compound very resistant to corrosion, is one more sign of the advances and successes made by  this young family-owned brand.
