the prettiest F.P. Journe I have seen. The size is just right, the dial alluring and the sage green strap outstanding. Let's just say I much prefer it to the 'plan B' Rolex x). An absolute win for you in my humble opinion . Cheers, Filip

I love the octa divine, definitely one of the more uncommon Journe pieces and I'm always a fan of smaller case sizes! A fantastic choice for your wife as well!

Thanks bro, I think you could definitely pull this one off as well Jordan due to the size...

As for my wife, it still cracks me up as she absolutely hates Rolex but I guess she overlooks that with the gem set models. Women and pretty colored gems πŸ’Ž, go figure πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ™ˆπŸ™‰πŸ™Š
