That is a stunner
I love that watch, not a very big fan of journe but some pieces are just to die for!!!!
Great watch
This one is a fantastic watch to have in a collection--even if cost is no object!
Hey Dustin - huge congratulations
I think you will love it. Be sure to take it out in the sun and play around with it. It is such a rewarding piece. A lot of nice moments with the dial and rock solid Chronometre. Please let us know how it works out for you and don’t forget to post some pi...

Journe also knows that once you have one of his pieces, it's almost impossible to stop at one!
Therefore, by offering the CB as his "entry level" manual wind watch, he gives incredible value which only boosts "brand equity". I love the fact the CB is so special (via difficult dial and tantalum) and yet priced at entry level.
That’s amazing knowledge detail
