Journe CS
have been looking at "simple" watches lately to wear on holiday.. something new and exciting and i have been looking primarily at Patek/Vach/JLC but have now gazed over at Journe specifically the CS..
i like the Rose, but everyone i know that owns journe tells me "go for the platinum"
curious as to what the Journe people on PP will reccomend... the AD also has the reserve de march, but the automatic nature of the piece just doesnt seem right especially for a piece w/ extended reserve..
curious to see if the answers on here reflect platinum like the journe fanatics i know.. or if they lean towards rose for the warmth of the metal.
thank you in advance,
-riley

about how he said we are in the business of selling watches, not selling watch cases.. i like his choice of only making the two metals.. yellow gold would be hideous ;-)
Platinum versus Gold
Given that Platinum and Gold prices are roughly the same nowadays, it seems the premium for Platinum watches is a bit of a scam....??? Factor in the different tooling machinery costs required for platinum casing blah blah but it still doesn't compute....
Couldn t agree more
I totally agree john,yeah sure Pt is amazing and incredible and all the beautiful storical references and the feel of it and more and more...I m a big fan too.But for sure it does not justify the incredible difference between gold and pt that almost all l...
