Color?
Do you happen to know the exact color name of that strap? I'd like to get one for my Chronomètre Souverain.

Bought it 7-8 yrs ago new
Sold it 1 yr later. It's a pheen-om now... But while I still admire it.. I recognize 'hype' as a mature-er collector... Enjoy.
Yeah...
Journe introduced this piece as an entry level watch. It was the lowest level entry Journe... check your history... 5-8 yrs ago a serious J collector would try to bypass this watch or else be regarded as a novice type J collector-- it was sub Journe almos...
I beg to differ
It’s only hype for people who fall into the hype trap. Owned this piece before the hype and enjoy it regardless. Wouldn’t sell it because it’s more popular and sells for 40K. Not sure who you hang out with, but as a member of the Journe Society I’ve never...
I am not a flipper, take it easy
I was just commenting... I believe all the fake shortages are fake...
Imo you’re wrong here....
It is indeed “entry level’ but they do have a problem with this watch They put the most difficult to make and most expensive dial in it. And this is why they only make 50 of these this year and about 100 in previous years The dial is black polished by han...
I think this watch needs to be renamed “cash flow” watch rather than entry level
Since the original intention was to bring in cash flow for the manufacture and its dealers during the financial crisis of 2008. FP didn’t want to simply lower the price of the existing references - which most manufactures did - so he came out with this. ...
I don’t think this is right, or at least some of what you say.
There are numerous “serious” Journe collectors here and elsewhere owning and appreciating the CB. With one exception, and I think this was just reflective of the individual in question (a “serious” Journe collector with money but no real knowledge or unde...
It may be Journe’s entry level piece
but it’s definitely not “simple”. It’s his most difficult piece to manufacture. And as for “fake shortage”, I wouldn’t call an 8 year waiting list and a production of 100 pieces per year a fake shortage.
Why not?
There's no reason he can't make more... hype is critical. Hype is absolutely necessary for a brand. Shrug.
If you knew anything about the brand you'd understand why 100 is the approximate limit in 2019...
It may come across as a harsh comment, but you've been pretty harsh in your "hype" view. Perhaps it's you who needs to check recent "history" to understand why there is a REAL limit to the number the company can physically produce in 2019. It's not the co...
I think the strict definition of “hype” would mean the brand itself was behind the marketing buzz or deception in promotion to drive up interest.
I for sure don’t think that’s what’s happening here. Rather, it’s a more loosely defined use of the word. The “hype” I acknowledge is the positive momentum behind this watch which comes from all of those people chasing what has now been seen as one of the...
Simply Journe is genius.
It looks like a hype, but I think over time many watches of the Journe will become a hype. It just takes time.
It's like a true Painting Art !
The best dial IMHO - that Blue is UNIQUE and looks a Blue Painting art! Congrats! Stunning piece! I'd be curious to see pictures of Strap variations (colors / material) on the "See Bee". The feeling I have is that pretty much ANY color strap goes with tha...
