Lot Essay

Founded in 1999 by legendary watchmaker François-Paul Journe, the namesake brand F.P. Journe has swiftly risen amongst the ranks as one of the most important independent brands, and without a question, has created some of the most desirable timepieces to covet.

Only creating approximately 700 watches per year, any F.P. Journe timepiece is considered highly collectible, and the present lot, an Octa Divine in platinum is no exception. The case measures at a contemporary 42mm and has an impressive heftiness and presence on the wrist. The watch features a big date, moon phases, and power reserve which boasts an incredible guarantee of at least 120 hours. Mr. Journe was also adamant that his timepieces were easy to handle, allowing for all functions to be conveniently set through the crown.

The dial features a white outer ring and grey center, contributing to discreet aesthetic of the timepiece. For a jovial flair, the watch has a “parking meter” style running seconds, which captivates one’s attention as it continuously dances around. Powering the timepiece is in-house caliber 1300.3 which is magnificently crafted from 18k red gold, further adding to the presence and weight of the wristwatch. The present lot is a marvelous timepiece to behold in the flesh and is wonderful for everyday wear.
