No mine didn't have issue with, but rather the date changing mechanism

According to ACM's articles, FPJ factories would typically just swap out the old seconds hands when they are in for a service. And this was what happened to mine. I think they know to give yours a special treatment. You're one lucky man.
"The collector from whom we acquired the watch had it serviced by F.P. Journe after purchasing it at auction. Interestingly, in the auction catalogue, the watch has a thick seconds hand. It now has the thin seconds hand, which can only have been replaced at service. It is also worth noting that the thin seconds hand design is used on later gold movement watches, so it would therefore make sense for these to be fitted on older watches coming in for service."
