And thx ChristianDK.
Actually, I don't know if i won the lottery.
A little "anecdote" about the purchase : the first time i saw the watch it was in 2018. At a first public auction where i bought a PP5110. At that time, buying this FPJ was no option and even more at the same time with the PP.
Oddly enough, the FPJ didn't reach the reserve (with was fairly low ...). Let's say I would have love bought it 1 one later at the reserve.
Like we say in french : quand on aime on ne compte pas (one don't count when you love it).

New in town and a quick Resonance review

 
 By: THOMAS.C : April 12th, 2020-08:28
Hello everybody. New kid in town (meaning : this forum), I would like to introduce myself with one of my latest acquisition. I'm a French collector, concentrating myself / my attention on GMT's and WorldTime Watches. I recently (2018/2019) fall in love wi...  

A very warm welcome to the F.P. Journe forum, Thomas!

Even if you are not new to WPS, it is a pleasure to have you on board our discussion forum here. OMG, I think you won the lottery with this recent acquisition with a yellow gold dial. These have become very difficult to find these days. Great write up you...

Its a nice little story. It seems this was destined for You. I dont know how much you had to pay, however, I have a strong feeling you don’t have to worry to much as I am sure, with time, you will be well covered ;-) Glad to have you on board Christian

Happy Easter, Thomas.

You’ve made yourself a great introduction.

Probably Journe‘s best watch, and in excellent condition!

A beautiful watch; 38mm, early model with brass movement, and that dial. Congratulations.

Absolute dream watch for me

BUT I must register one disagreement: I do not believe this watch should be understood as a two-time zone watch. It *can* register two different times at once, but that's not the purpose of the complication. In other words: I insist that it does not fit i... 

Love this Resonance... Welcome!
