US$ 30,000-40,000
EUR 22,800-38,000
With F.P. Journe presentation box, certificate, spare strap and product literature.
Despite its growing popularity, F.P Journe remains resolutely independent, producing less than a thousand timepieces a year. Attention to detail is integral to this boutique watchmaker, as can be seen in this stunning Chronom/getre /ga R/aesonance. The petroleum lustre of the mother-pearl dial pinned into place by the finest of screws and juxtaposed against the precision of a dual-time movement is a perfect partnership of technology and luxury. The transparent case back reveals the two heartbeats of the twin independent oscillators, which give life to the two separate movements. Journe is the pioneering watchmaker to house two regulators with resonance in a wristwatch, stepping in the esteemed shoes of Antide Janvier, horloger-m/aecanicien to the King of France, who achieved this in a clock in 1780 and a French watchmaker who manifested this in a pocket watch thirty years after.
