Exhibition only pieces?

Aug 28, 2022,03:02 AM
 

Or are they available for purchase? Not sure what the situation is like for FPJ these days in terms of availability. It has been a while since I was last in a Journe boutique. In 2016, I was offered a CB on the spot... still kicking myself over turning it down....

It was 33 degree, and I was in Zurich for another event.

Bizarre weather!

Everything is on a waiting list these days.

Good old days are gone. Sadly.

I know

The sentiment, I turned down 5711R in 2018. Waiting lists are loooooong.

So happy to hear that

As Tony Tankov is a wonderful person who I really appreciate. Totally earth bound. He pulled out some really nice pieces for you. Your pictures make me miss Geneva now… Thank you for sharing 🤗

Actual-working peices or exhibition pieces, I am awed by the beauty of these beauties.

Thanks for sharing pics of a wonderful visit. My fingers are crossed that "the call" to me will come one day.

They were exhibition

Pieces. 👍🏾

very nice !! amazing watches BUT

 
 By: christianch : August 28th, 2022-16:56
last time I called Geneva they told me on average I would need to wait 8-10 years to get any watch. I am not far (Zürich) so they invited me to visit and I told them that I will reconsider in 8 years 😄 Not for me but I did visit another FP Journe boutique... 

Waiting time is

Long but they are making sub1000 pieces. I was in Zurich the day before and the situation for big brands are even worse. They don’t even have any pieces to show or try on.

Same issue

No. They don’t get more allocation in GVA

Beautiful watches!
