Emmanuel, known as quattro on WatchProSite, initiates a compelling discussion comparing three horological masterpieces featuring a rear tourbillon: the Urban Jürgensen UJ-1, Patek Philippe Ref. 5101P, and F.P. Journe T30. His post invites collectors to weigh in on their preferences, highlighting the nuanced appeal of these exceptional timepieces. This article synthesizes the community's insights, offering a deeper look into what makes each reference a coveted choice among enthusiasts.
The Patek doesn't look good on my wrist - as it's too long. But the other two look decent on my wrist! Were you planning on loaning me one?
Now that UJ looks good, but the price is just ridiculous in my view. I think the Patek is great value for money today (relatively speaking). The FPJ is unattractive to me. Dirk
The quality of the pieces and the way you captured them more than makes up for the pixel quality! In fact the quality adds a sense of style and ruggedness to the shots! I agree with your choice, but that luscious sheen the PP is undeniable!
Tough choice. Love the PP movement but that case not great for my wrist. FPJ for me, quattro.
It's just a gorgeous fully-realized piece of work. An all-time great as far as I'm concerned! UJ's movement is super impressive but the case and dial just don't speak to me at all. Journe is a really fantastic watch that, standing completely on its own, MIGHT equal the Patek... but I'd rather have the Journe with the tourbillon that you can see from the front!
Instead the blue, salmon is just to limiting and not my taste.
