Thanks Jay for commenting on the controversy. Now I understand.

My engineering background is not nearly sufficient to comment on the resonance phenomenon - I tend to trust the inventor. The real test for me would be if the seconds hands of the two movements actually stay in sync over the whole reserve de marche. If this is the case, then I'd argue the objective was achieved. Can anyone here comment on this?

Controversial initially, now perhaps more broadly accepted. But if we ignore the physics this reference also presents itself as a very unique design. For non watch people I’ve observed the Resonance to be very alluring, but in no way intimidating (this ma...
A very special watch indeed

and as you stated, controversial, but isn’t that good? It creates emotions, start of conversations, ... I tend to agree that this probably must be the signature piece of Journe. Also a nice picture by the way. Br, Dirk
Wow..

What a capture! One photo to encapsulate Journe DNA perfectly. Will be near impossible to improve on the balance of the dial and layout of the movement, and I wait with apprehensive anticipation for what the new version will become. One day I hope to land...
It’ll be interesting to see what comes.

I’m not sold on the Pisa. I like the contrast on the dial for sure, however I think the charm of the early grainy dials outweighs anything that has come after.

He’s never created a thing and now he learns that all his mates have been constructing tourbillons!?

I think you nailed it, Jay!

With your beautiful picture and your description is just spot on! The Resonance will always be THE signature FPJ watch to me. And it strikes a perfect balance between being a significant piece of horology and a very wearable watch. The watch that has it a...
Controversy?

Dear Jay, may you shed some light about the controversy youmention in your post? To me, the original Resonance was the watch that brought FPJ to my (very limited) attention, and there was only admiration for the ingenuity of the resonance movement and the...

Mileage will vary it seems with these.
By: Jay (Eire) : May 29th, 2019-09:25
Mine has been pretty much spot on. However others have said similar to you, and others still have found larger variance. The struggle I assume is first in the regulation. It’s need to right and perfect. Also, and here’s another question for Christian’s li...
This is one watch that I truly missed and

have owned several times in different variation. But every time I let it go because it always' fell sick' and needs servicing which adds up the cost of maintaining it. It seems like the latter Resonance do not have such issues. Still, I do miss it. ...
