Which Journe watch do you currently covet?

(Friends, please do NOT use this thread as a continuation of the massive FPJ forum closure thread. The topic has been addressed in that thread, and we thank you all for addressing your opinions - good or bad.

Also please remember that just because the PPro exec team decided to close the Journe forum does not mean we are boycotting Journe and his watches. All we have done is chosen to not have a dedicated forum for the brand. Anyone is free as always to discuss any watch, including Journe watches, they want here in HOrological MEandering aka "HoMe" forum.)

So to go back to my original thought, which Journe watch do you currently covet?

Mine recently has been the Centigraphe. I still haven't seen one in the flesh and am deeply in love with it. I've been looking for a dress watch to add to my collection, and the Centigraphe is at the top of the list for dress watches. Unfortunately I have to wait a bit before as budget does not permit, so all I can do is live through fellow owners' enjoyment, passion, and pictures.

Let's please talk about watches now Please don't make me have to edit or lock this thread.

i want one i think

Have always loved it...

By: dxboon : June 4th, 2010-15:23

...and it continues to be a great design that I enjoy. The Chronometre Souverain (pic borrowed from CaliforniaJed). I don't need anything more from an FPJ watch -- this one has it all, for me. It looks great on Jed here! This message has been edited by dx...

The beginning of the story...

I think this one is the dream watch for any Journe's fan: Well... if I want to become more realistic, the Chronometre Bleu is on top of my list: Fr.Xavier...

such efficiency!

before I bothered to look for pictures of those exact 2, I noticed that you'd taken care of it for me! If only the CB came on a bracelet..... A

Yes, unquestionably that tourbillon above all the others. I mean ALL the others. As for the Chronometer Blue, well, it's absolutely stunning. However I was wearing the CS yesterday afternoon in informal surroundings - and must wholeheartedly agree with Da...

For me the CS - its is absolutely perfect...

the only problem is that it is just getting so expensive. About 3 years ago it was doable, now prices are becomming too high for me. I may have to revise my grail down to the Chronometre Bleu, but unfortunatley have not seen it in person yet, and can't qu...

Tourbillon Souverain.

It was, it is, and it will be, one of my favorite timepieces ever. Love it. Flawless. Vte

Resonance

The "original" version, any metal, any movement, although I prefer the brass movement with the yellow dial. I can still covet it if I have it right? It's the cat's pyjamas.

Really nothing attractive to me since 2005......

By: MTF : June 5th, 2010-03:46

The current Mrs MTF and I used to collect FPJ watches from authorised retailers and boutiques in Tokyo and Singapore. We accumulated a "collection" -- tried to get one of each movement, always with or gris dial......all new and under warranty. We fought o...

glad you kept the chronographe

By: amerix : June 5th, 2010-06:56

I use the function regularly and have never had a problem with this watch, nor with one - sorry, I try to forget which one - of the other four. These were mainly due to metal fatigue from an alloy in the winding train and never to sloppy workmanship or la...

The Centigraphe and their Tourbillon

By: Oztimelord : June 5th, 2010-03:56

Both are just sublime. I'm mainly a Rolex and Patek guy and maybe one day I will pull the trigger on a Lange or Journe. The downside being, that it hardly ever stops at just one. Regards Rene

the one on my arm

By: donizetti : June 5th, 2010-08:23

I know I own it already but this doesnt change the feeling! This is the pinnacle for me, within the realm of what I can afford. If my budget would become a lot bigger or for my 50eth maybe the dead seconds tourbillon.. Best Andreas...

Flawless, love it.

By: VMM : June 5th, 2010-20:25

My favourite.

Such a beauty.

That'd be mine as well. No need to wrap it. [nt]

and the CS with black dial (38mm), but FPJ is not available in my country anymore ... The last time I tried to buy one, some years ago, I was in the mood to go about 600 km by car. I gave the AD a call, but they had nothing in stock what I was looking for...
