F.P. Journe

The Resonance, truly, is beautiful watch with both its movement and dial.  The crown used to reset the seconds hands is at 4:00 while the crown used to wind and set time is at 12:00. 

When winding, I found the easiest way to do so was to hold the watch upside down and use my left thumb and forefinger to wind.  That in itself wasn't the problem in my experience.  The issue was that the last 10 - 15 hrs of Power Reserve are difficult to wind.  For some reason it was actually painful in my fingers to crank down the final 1/4 of the power reserve. 

Some, like myself, have sold the watch because of the problem, others simply don't wind down the remaining portion of the reserve, while others tell me winding is fine for them.  Obviously subjective...

I find it interesting that of all the watches I ever bought and sold the only ones I ever missed have been the Resonance and Calendrier (I owned the Calendrier twice - I love that dial too!).
