Update on the Octa lune Havana
Some feedback after trying it for 2 weeks:
1- it has lots of presence and brings lot of attention
2- it is not for everyone… you really need to like the Havana colour.
3- it is so much different than Patek dress watches(being a Patek collector)… much more flashy
4- this is a watch for the very long term. I am personally loving its very uniqueness.
5- i like it more than the CS. The blue lune brings a great contrast.
In summary… the Havana is really great, if you dont care of future value because on this one, i think it will go either ways.

Journe’s style is completely different from Patek’s.
I’m not sure I’d agree it’s flashy but it certainly isn’t conservative. It can take some getting used to. It took me years. But it is unique still; and it’s easy to become obsessed with the brand as there seems to be so much variety of dials and complicat...
I don’t think thing I’ve anything to add to what Mike says here.
Perhaps only to ask if you are set on the Lune, set on wanting a date or moonphase. Have you see the Lune side by side with the Havana CS? I mention only because the addition of the date window and moonphase makes the overall impression of the dial (and c...
Interesting write up.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and impressions. I think this is a great model. Very versatile and great for everyday use. Like Mike, I don’t agree it’s more flashy than a Patek.I. Fact I think it has a more casual aspect to the asymmetric dial design...
