My Journe watches have lately been demanding a disproportionate amount of wrist time at the expense of the other watches in my collection, and this has made me wonder why.  


I have now come to the conclusion that François-Paul Journe has succeeded in something very special with his design.

He has come up with a noble aesthetic truth, both deeply rooted in history but at the same time with a clear, vibrant, durable and unique expression that promises eternal durability. 


I find my watches spellbinding and attention-demanding. A design could not be more successful. My other watches and I myself have to bow to this.


Am I crazy or does anyone else feel this way? Please, share with me if you are also enchanted by Journe watches

haha you have caught the bug, Robert.....

this is common among Journe fans. Not everyone gets it - of course - but if you do, you cant seem to get enough. Not enough wrist time, not enough watches. His watches are addictive. Many in this group can witness this. I certainly can. I think I wear mine 75% of the time. Wonderful picture. Its a very well composed collection you have there

Thanks my friend, I'm trapped in Journ's gravity field and I can't break free, and I really don't want to either 😊

His watches seem to display joy, mirth and whimsy…

I love to see them on WPS especially during the holidays…love crooked Christmas tree.
