F.P. Journe

So its been a while since I posted an incoming for FPJ, but yesterday I collected a major grail watch of mine It signals the end and maybe a new beginning for my watch journey as I aim to slow down and focus on enjoying what I have, and Im gonna enjoy thi...  

…(I could go on forever with the adjectives)…pieces of horological art ever made! Your particular configuration is without equal imho. Wear it in the best of health.

Thank you for your kind words! I also happen to agree that this is the best configuration

Cheers blau!

"The Penguin" haha thats the first time I heard it but I like it!

And a dream watch for me. Wear it in good health. May it bring many years of enjoyment!

That’s a real beauty you got there

Wear it in best of health

Thank you!!

I hope the experience matches owning such a piece

Yes that is indeed a biggie. I completely understand your feelings. Ive been told my CO should be arriving very soon. I also understand what you said about enjoying what you have. Please post some more wrist shots when you are out and about. We want to he... 

Long time Christian! Will def post some more shots. Hope youre having a good one and that your CO arrives soon also!

Definitely worth the wait

If we think about Journe over the last two decades (2000s and 2010s) then I think many would say the defining watches of those decades were the Resonance and the Optimum. Obviously both were imagined well before their introduction and some will argue that... 

Cheers for sharing your thoughts, I think Im in the same camp as you! For me it had to be the black dial, its just aesthetically more my style. I just love this watch. Thanks again!

Can't wait for mine.

Submitted my application for the black label, so we will see. Wear it in good health.

Hope you get yours soon!

But this one, in particular, is absolutely fantastic. The black-dialed CO is truly an iconic watch and one that I think history will remember fondly. Congratulations on getting your grail, and I wish you the best of luck transitioning into this new phase ... 

I also feel that the CO will be one of Journe's all time important pieces along with the Resonance and the tourbillion.

Or anyone! This is one of the two unique high complications from Journe that stand out among all watches from all brands. And really it’s “only” a time-only watch. But another level of watchmaking. Congratulations!

Totally agree!!

...and they were always very nice and welcoming. Congratulations : )

THey are always super welcoming and professional.

Cheers!!

Love the pictures. Please post more!

Will do!!

Huge congrats! It's beautiful.

Thank you and Im glad you appreciate the beauty!

Absolutely stunning! Love it in black too.

For me black was the only way!

What a great choice and well worth the wait. This is a crazy hobby/passion of ours. WIGH. Ben

Yes indeed Ben, its so crazy. Was in a Gtg with some friends yesterday and we chatted watches till 2am!

Absolutely stunning and technically a magnificent timepiece it is ! Best, Mahesh.,

Thank you Mahesh! It is indeed a technical marvel, very happy with it!

Thank you for finding it!!

Would love to own one on day. Had the pleasure of trying one on over the weekend -- love how the crown needs a little bit of oomph in order to wind.

Yeah love the winding feel, its one of the best ive ever felt. Its cool that its abit heavy.

It says "FP JOURNE" in Japanese katakana letters. I believe its a Japan exclusive polishing cloth haha ...
