Very nice shot and watch, Jay!
The similarities are obvious indeed, but looking in detail at your watch makes me realise that I’m not familiar enough with its model. Has Journe made any of these with a solid dial or only with a smoked sapphire ? But I imagine that the digital display of time is quite a feast for the wearer.
Anyway, everything about it, including the tonneau shape, sets is apart in the Journe production.
And many thanks for your kind words.
Best, Emmanuel
Vagabondage II
A picture from several weeks ago, before the winter big freeze. Posting another from that series of photos in response to Emmanuel’s great post on the Niton Prima earlier. I see several similarities in both watches, things that sing to me in the Niton are...
In a small package too.
When I opted for this I was very much enamored with the ZW. Still am. But the ZW could never be a daily wearable watch for me given the size (my wrist, the watch). This one however was daily wearable…until the market values got out of hand!
Thanks for looking Nicolas.
For me, my favourite in terms of coolness factor, it being a bit of unusual watch in the overall collection. But my overall favourite remains the Resonance.

No, to the best of my knowledge no other dial variant exits.
The VII was available in Rose Gold and PT, and in much smaller numbers PT with baguette diamonds on the bezel and lugs. The latter a really beautiful watch, surprisingly cool given the flat bezel. One never knows though. Some of the most unique Journe sit...
I didn’t know FPJ made so many
special pieces: I imagine the happy few owners are enchanted with their watches! Have a great weekend. Best, Emmanuel
True.
Maybe because there are so few of them in total? But it is very very special that’s for sure, I’m happy that you have one.
It is Gary. Fortunate to have been around to get it.
Virtually impossible today for all but very very few given where the market is. And the best of the Vagabondage series in my opinion.
Despite going to multiple FPJ events I’ve only seen this watch a handful of times.
It’s super impressive. We can all agree that FPJ is simply a genius watch maker and imho greatest of his generation.
And importantly in a very svelte package.
This is a big factor in the appeal of the series.
Baised, but I do agree. Nothing like it…
…except the ~160 or so other VII. 😂 That one never sees btw, they all seem to be tucked away in dark cupboards somewhere.
Thank you.
The Niton posted by Emmanuel is to me a very handsome watch too. Different to this VII but very appealing to the eye.
Always a pleasure seeing this one 👌🏻🙌🏻
One of the most recognizable watch / strap combinations on the internet 😊👏🏻👍🏻
Well, if I can’t follow or come close to your every day pairs…having one signature pair is good !
I may have shared this before but I did try to get the same hide for another watch a couple of years later. They had stopped offering this with the matte finish, only a less glossy gloss. Too loud !
