F.P. Journe

...  

want to wear your watchs in the safety of your own home only. Sorry to hear about your friend.

Hope the watch gets returned 🤞🏻

Sorry to hear. Hope she is ok.

Oh no. Chk

Yes it’s usually a very quiet area and not dangerous. Sadly crime happens in all cities….And Geneva is generally low crime. That’s just a fact.

That's just what some friends of mine who live in Geneva and Lausanne have told me. They told me that crime is becoming a problem in Geneva. And they've been saying that for a few years, even before the pandemic.

We hear about this in so many beautiful places of the world now. I sometimes fear that this can kill our beautiful hobby. If wearing a valuable watch makes you a target of crime, what is the point. Watches are for wearing and enjoying.

Limiting this to just Journe, not exactly a household name if we are honest, I generally wear only the CTS. To me, it’s the least recognizable of the entire catalogue. I cannot recall the last time I’ve worn my Resonance or Vagabondage in public. Maybe 20... 

For me, it’s also about not flashing money or attracting unwanted attention. I work most days from home now so I enjoy all my watches but when I go to meetings or out for dinner I don’t wear a watch or pick something very, very plain. A couple of times I’... 

Even in Capri it happened last summer with an escape by boat

I Think the major cities are generally the worst. Watches are a very easy and and “high return” target when you compare it to other types of crime.

The world is insane, I imagine people will start needing body guards to wear some pieces out for insurance purposes soon.. Of all places too, not sure what can fix it.

The punishment for street crime is swift.

Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan and China to this list too?

🙏🙏🙏

btw the price of Octalune came up sooo much ...
