Thanks for sharing here Christian.
Talking to the folks at the Boutique the Watch has become a bit of a darling, and we’ve seen that even here on our forum. There is a lot of interest in the 48, especially the treated Titanium case, so much so it seems the Boutique cannot keep up with demand.
I thought it was an interesting idea when launch but didn’t give it much more thought as the it was a ladies watch initially and the aesthetic (given whom it was pitched at) was not interesting to me. But with the introduction of the 48 and the treated Titanium case it’s become an eye catcher. So much so I actually made a trip to a Boutique to see them in the metal recently.
For me, the original size in the treated Titanium could be the perfect hers and his watch to be shared. It wears a little smaller than my Vagabondage but for my wrist it still works well. Hmmm....something to thing about.

Great Video, thanks for sharing!
The brand needs to do more and more of these videos and invest more heavily into this kind of knowledge sharing. It was good to see Mr Journe crack a smile at the end of the video too
Yes I agree
I think they are really great. Especially to get it from the horse’s mouth makes it all so much more interesting. You can tell he is not a salesman but talking with the perspective of a creating person. I think he did very well.
Totally aggree
I'e had a pleasure for a quick meet with Mr. Journe himself just a few months ago - immediately you can tell he's a man of few words, not really into chit chat, a textbook introvert. But when we started discussing the designs and mechanics he immediately ...
if you want him to really get going, talk about the three "W's"
watches, women and wine 😂
It's always interesting to hear how brilliant people come up with their ideas
That was a surprisingly logical progression. Combined with some technical wizardry of course.
I’m sure, if it took 8 years to develop
There would have been a lot of head aches and back and forth. But I agree with you. In a way, his approach is very simple and logical. It doesn’t start with a movement he had lying around. Just the simple fact that his ladies line is not what the ladies a...

I heard Paris has more than 6 months waiting list now
I also think many people see it as a first flirt with the brand. Similar to wat the CB was in the beginning. It is relatively affordable and accessible. You don’t get a truly mechanical watch, but you get something very unique and interesting in terms of ...
Thank you for sharing this
I find it to be a very versatile watch and fun to wear. Had to wait about 6 months to get one but I'm glad I did.
Congratulations on getting one
I really like it a lot. The case is just so comfortable and light.
Thank you
I too like it a lot. An interesting watch that you just don't have to worry about.
