Thank you!
If Journes are already polarizing this one dial is even more. I think either you hate it or you simply find it adorable - I fall in the later category. the colors that come out of that MOP are mind-boggling to me!
So good the FPJ forum is back!
Here one of my all time favorite watches, the Octa Calendrier in 38mm with its admittedly polarizing black MOP dial. One of my early purchases and still very dear to me. When I think that I almost let it go...it would be one of my biggest regrets. In a se...

so we are two!
this watch is so negative for my productivity at work, I keep looking at it and playing around with the reflections!
I am super biaised obviously,
but I have not seen yet another MOP that pleases me more than this one!
yes!
impossible to stop looking and playing with the reflections when wearing it! so bad for work, I should only use it on weekends!
Alex, that's a beautiful watch and size...
I like most of FPJ's MOP (and other natural material) dials. Yours is no exception -- really nice. And I prefer the 38mm size, too. Good call on not selling it!! I'm curious -- since you've owned it for awhile -- has the calendar function on your watch al...
Hi, thanks for your kind words!
I have owned the watch for abt 6 years now and have not had any issue at all, not once. It is not my daily wear (I actually do not have a daily wear watch, I rotate almost each day) but I have used it quite a lot, perhaps in my top 5 watches worn. Were yo...
Thanks for this reply. I'm happy for you!
I had some ongoing difficulties, described here , since I bought the Calendrier about 4.5 year ago. I haven't felt like wearing it too often since I got it back this last time, but it hasn't malfunctioned since then when I have worn it. I still love it, t...

Top design, top materials, top movement, perfect dimensions, very rarely seen. Very hard to find something that's not at the maximum level here. I understand it is a productivity killer! Enjoy it and post some other pics!
Mine too!
Not sure I've seen all variants, perhaps there are some rare handcrafts floating around, but of the ones I have seen this one is my favourite. Thanks!
Your watch is BEAUTIFUL, Alex
And the ever changing mother of pearl dial gives you a 1000 looks in one watch, and the best is that all of them are just awesome! Enjoy it in good health 👍🏼 René
Yes, the dial has like 4 or 5
Different aspects or "shines" depending on the angle and type of light (sun/artificial). Here on its silverish appearance. Thanks for chipping in! ...
