CB production has never been in the 200 pieces range. As statee said it will be 100 this year. It was 110 in 2017... 2018 production was somewhere in that range as well.

It wasn't purposely reduced either since they had issues with the dials since it only has a 30% success rate.

Tantalum.

And it is lovely
It's actually not titanium,

But tantalum. It looks somewhat like titanium, but has this blue color ;-) very difficult to work with and therefore not used very much in watches.
It is quite complicated, in fact :-)

I was at the case manufacture last week and I am preparing a post about the tantalum case. It is certainly more complicated than platinum. Best Christian
Well, I guess you might have a point

That it's important to see through all the marketing etc. Do you have reason to believe that it is not hard to work with? Just curious...
Great picture

And I love your strap too. Is it a custom made?
Thank you. No it is FPJ...

… I believe the correct spelling is "Mogano" it is the mid level brown between their chocolate and carmel
Wait Time for CB

I like this one. Sent the Miami store an inquiry last week for wait time, and they responded over 5 years. Shrug.
Production was purposely reduced

And significantly since it will be only 200 pieces a year. Fun factor is FP Journe produces a bit less than 700 timepieces of which more than half are CB....
The numbers a more like what cmmnsns state.

No reduction of production but the CB has suddenly gained a lot of popularity. 5 years ago - you could could pick up a used one for a song.

This Resonance is just superb. I think the grey strap really makes the rg pop!
