Recently our Journe moderator Christian commented that this strap choice has allowed him to see this watch in a whole new light.  

I’ve said it here before but at the same time I ordered this strap I ordered another too, it’s never been mounted.  The camo and the gold case have worked in such a way that for me the watch can be worn more frequently and (importantly) more casually.  So that’s a big win. 

Here’s to a new year, new incomings, maybe some outgoings, more learning, new friends and hopefully getting to see some more of you in person somewhere in the world.

Thanks also to Christian for driving forward the Journe forum, we have picked up some momentum and so hopefully that will continue.

About the F.P. Journe Vagabondage I Ref. vagabondage

The F.P. Journe Vagabondage I represents the inaugural reference in the Vagabondage series, introduced in 2004. This reference establishes the foundation for F.P. Journe's exploration of unconventional time display concepts within a compact case format.

The 36.5mm platinum case houses the manual-winding caliber 1509 movement, delivering 40 hours of power reserve. The silver dial is protected by sapphire crystal, while a fixed bezel maintains clean lines. Water resistance extends to 30 meters, and the watch is completed with a leather strap.

This reference appeals to collectors seeking F.P. Journe's approach to alternative time displays in a more intimate case size. The platinum construction and manual movement align with the brand's commitment to traditional materials and hand-winding mechanisms. As the first Vagabondage reference, it occupies a specific position for collectors interested in F.P. Journe's horological concepts beyond conventional displays.

FP did a good job with this one, and the entire Vagabondage series.

They represent a very interesting contrast from the rest of the Journe line-up.
