Good value, wrong size

By Hannah Lindqvist, Stockholm ยท

Frederique Constant got a lot right here and then made it 41 mm. The textured blue dial is pretty, the quick-change strap system is useful, and a COSC-certified FC-303 for around 2,300 dollars is a fair deal. 100 m, display back, 10.9 mm thick. Lovely numbers. But integrated cases don't forgive extra width, and 22 mm at the lugs means this sits big on a small wrist however thin it is. If they made a 38, I'd be interested. As it is, this is for someone with a 17 cm wrist and a sensible budget.
