For me, even within the Journe lineup I’ve found something similar. Firstly with the Centigraphe Sport. For years I didn’t like it, didn’t seen the appeal (aside from the weight) but kept looking, kinda like it was a bad car crash (should look away but keep taking a glance). Over several years I grew to like the entire watch. Similar experience with the Chronometre Souverain, I just couldn’t accept the Power Reserve. I thought it threw the entire dial off. But now, on certain dials I think it really works well.

The hands on the CB are something I’ve heard many people have strong negative opinions about. Those opinions usually address both the style/shape and the fact that this design is not original (borrowed or copied) and also that the colour is off putting or...

I've never heard or read about these complaints before... I absolutely love my CB, and for FP Journe to release his most complex dial at his lowest entry price (excluding Elegante) is an incredible gift to those wanting to own a piece from the brand. Like...

You make an honest point about the hands...

When we have paid for a watch, none of us enjoy criticism about our beloved piece. Some of the best designs take time to mature in the eyes of some people. Personally I view the overall design and not a single feature and love the watch.
interesting that you mention the hands

They where the first thing I fell in love with the first time I saw this watch. then came the dial nd then the case. I remember them as a "fat cream" color, and I instantly loved it. The hands om mine are more white, which are fine. The shape of Journes h...

I have always admired Marc Newson as a designer and I loved the watches. I would be quite concerned about service though. Still. I can find several I think are still cool. As you say, the design has lasting qualities, despite its very significant style.
