The striking rich green dial of this Chronomètre Souverain immediately sets it apart as something truly special. This remarkable platinum timepiece is one of only 99 examples produced in 2020 to celebrate the opening of F.P. Journe’s first Dubai boutique on October 30, 2019. In partnership with Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons, this marked Journe’s 10th boutique worldwide, following locations in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Geneva, Paris, New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Beirut, and Kiev.
The thoughtfully designed Dubai Edition Chronomètre Souverain stands out not only for its stunning combination of a 40 mm platinum case and green dial with white gold applied numerals and rhodium-plated hands but also for the absence of the power-reserve indicator at 3 o’clock, which is present on the standard Chronomètre Souverain model. François-Paul Journe specifically chose the green dial for its symbolism of fortune and fertility in the Middle East. The edition sold out instantly upon release and, due to its unique beauty and distinctive design, has become one of the most sought-after Chronomètre Souverain models.
Offered in excellent overall condition, this particular watch, no. 42 of the edition, comes with its full set of accessories. It presents international collectors and F.P. Journe enthusiasts with a rare opportunity to acquire this highly elusive timepiece.
