My 'New' Journe - A message from CL

Clang had some trouble posting his message. I'm posting it on his behalf!

From the moment I saw Felipe's Journe Tourbillon, I know I want the
similar Extreme Shiny/Mirror Dial version but in WG.
It has to be from the year 1999, the first year when the dial looks
like that.
If I can't find WG dial, I guess I can go with any other color. I
started my search and realise that it is extremely difficult to get one
from 1999. Most of them I found happens to be from 2001onwards and they
all have either a less shiny main dial or a very white stark sub dial.
I gave up and thought of maybe getting the beautiful RG dial version
selling in collectors marketplace which was from 1999 and has very
shiny/mirror dial.
As usual, I'm too late and the watch was already sold to a purist I
respected tremendously.
But just as I'm about to give up completely, the watch is there for me
from another purist friend
How wonderful and how beautiful it is
I'm thrilled.
