I have entered the world of FP Journe..................
After a lot of research. And sitting on the fence.
I finally purchased my 1st Journe watch.
And imo what a beauty it is.
After a slight hiccup on the first night. Everything is working marvellously now.
I just can't stop looking at it, its so comfortable to wear, the strap just appears to wraps itself around your wrist.
And the dial is just so easy to read. Combine that with the weight of the Platinum and the size (40mm) of the case. Its just perfect.
I have enclosed some photos.
Considering getting a deployment buckle for the strap. What do you think?
My next step will be to either visit the only AD in the country or revisit the Geneva Boutique and look at the other Journe pieces.

Lucky indeed since - Black Label pieces are only offered to exiting Journe watch owners.

congratulations!
Might be one of the most striking F.P.Journe creations for its contrast of black and white on the dial, never seen this combination in real. Congratulations! Wear it in good health.
