I got myself a Patek 3940J and enjoyed wearing it often. Recently, I came across the FPJ Octa QP and thought it was amazing... Both are atheistically pleasing to me, but FPJ is more special in my eyes. The movements are both technically great, with FPJ ha...
Yes you are :-)

I would keep the 3940, much more classic but perhaps that's not what you want anymore. I don't like the dial of the FPJ too much mainly due to the metal inlay. But you need to choose what you like most! br, Dirk
You’re right!

It’s almost a battle of the opposite. I need to find a common ground for my head and heart.
Both are great watches

I have owned both (still have the Journe) and prefer the FPJ for similar reasons that you have stated. I like the aesthetics and the easy to set feature. Good luck with your decision. Either way you will have an amazing perpetual.
Yes. Keeing 3940J and add FPJ

To the collection would be ideal. Maybe I should give myself more time for this to become possible.
FPJ for me.

Easy to read layout plus . . . Arabic numerals which I love and a long power reserve handsomely displayed. FPJ is the winner for me. M4
Nope, not crazy at all!

The QP is a really attractive, interesting watch (though I'm partial to the older FPJ Octa Calendrier and Perpetuelle models). Before committing to the FPJ QP, though, I'd want to talk to several folks who've owned one for a few years, to ask about reliab...
May I give an opinion..

... even if I have not owned either of these watches. Although I appreciate how accomplished the FPJ is, aesthetically for me the 3940J is perfect and I would not let it go.

Nicely balanced dial, a useful readable date and a long power reserve. No contest here in my opinion.
Not crazy at all

if every morning you feel like stapping the FPJ first, that is the first sign that dust ia going to lay on the PP. And it is not worth keeping such a watch in a drawer.
FPJ for me

The dial has better balance and a more use-it-everyday look. in my opinion. Cazalea
Keep both!

The FPJ QP's legibility and easy of adjustment are really key things.
Thanks everyone for the input!

It’s been very helpful!!!!!!!! I’ll take my Lunar New Year break to think this over. Hahahaha
FpJ without a doubt. Instant change and quick.correct.

Lead the way technology wise to the PP. The my downside for the FPJ and that's not picking is taht I would have preferred applied numerals or etched versus the print and I am sure they could have found a way to hide the screws in the front but it still h...
You’re right!

I did think for a moment where to post this... If I had posted this in the PP forum.........
