For Your Safety: A Message to All Buyers
- New Seller Notice: If a seller is new to the Collectors Market with less than 200 posts. While everyone starts somewhere, we strongly recommend using a secure payment method like PayPal Goods & Services or a credit card for purchases for buyer protection.
- Critical Security Alert: Established accounts can be compromised. Always request a custom timestamp (a photo of the watch with a note of your choosing) from any seller, regardless of their transaction history. For the highest security, a live video call is the best way to confirm the seller physically has the watch.
If a seller refuses these basic checks or you see any red flags, stop the transaction immediately.
Remember: A real seller with a genuine watch has nothing to hide and will understand your need for caution.
F.P. Journe Octa Automatique Lune Nacre Edition. Limited edition, rare piece. Perfect condition watch purchased new from AD complete with box and papers.
THIS MODEL WAS PRODUCED BETWEEN 2008 AND 2017.
THE BOUTIQUE NACRE COLLECTION ELEGANTLY COMBINES THE MYSTERIES OF MOTHER OF PEARL IN AN HOUR CIRCLE ADORNED WITH ARABIC NUMERALS, WITH THE TIMELESS ELEGANCE OF A GUILLOCHE CLOUS DE PARIS IN ITS CENTRE.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
(1) 22K Gold rotor with uni-directional winding
(2) Large capacity mainspring barrel
(3) Precision-adjustment weights
(4) Full-size free-sprung chronometer balance
Watches with long power reserves have hitherto been handicapped by small balances which are susceptible to shocks and disturbances. The Octa's compact construction allows a large (10.1 mm) balance to be fitted, giving greater inertia and stability. The free-sprung chronometer balance is adjusted by five turning weights that vibrate at a steady 21'600 times an hour.
Fully wound, the Octa delivers chronometric precision for 120 hours. The meter-long mainspring supplies an average 850gr of torque, limiting the loss in balance amplitude to 25% over the five-day period. Beyond that time, the watch will continue to go for another day or two, but the amplitude-loss no longer guarantees precision timekeeping.
