For its 35th-anniversary celebration in 2023, Frederique Constant unveiled a series of limited-edition models, culminating in the Highlife Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar in stainless steel on the occasion of Citizen's opening of its New York City Flagship store in December 2023.

This haute-horlogerie model brings together two prestigious complications, the tourbillon and the perpetual calendar, in the proprietary in-house self-winding caliber FC-975 that operates within a 41mm stainless case. Despite the complexity of the movement that was developed 16 year ago, the case has a modest height of 12.65mm.

The blue dial, featuring the collection's characteristic globe pattern, elegantly displays subsidiary dials indicating months and leap years at twelve o'clock, the date at three o'clock, a one-minute tourbillon with a seconds hand at six o'clock, and the day of the week at nine o'clock.
