F.P. Journe

The FP Journe event in Beverly Hills last night.  What a great event and Mr. Journe himself was there!  He is a very nice person and very humble, thank you Mr. Journe for creating such unique and beautiful watches,  I saw old friends and meet some I’ve communicated with on various watch sites for years.  I wore the new platium 42mm with a blue strap and my wife worn the platium Vagabondage III, I believe she was the most popular person in the room besides Mr. Journe, what fun everyone had.  Thank you Laurent and the Beverly Hills FPJ Boutique…Jim

It was a GTG with watch people from all walks of life versus some of the other dealers that are selling and having hot chicks run around with drinks (nothing wrong with hot chicks), that is insulting to my wife and she always wants to leave early, this time she had fun albeit they didn’t have much to sell…Jim

Incredibly watch, and the event looked a real good time!

No I did not try on the 40mmm but I have a Bleu and it is a little small for me so I went with the 42mm, my wrists are 17cm so you can Jude for yourself in the pictures. Personally I like a little bigger watch and 42mm hit that target for me (I am happy) but most anyone would be fine with the 40mm. I have no idea how orders for the two different sizes panned out, it would be interesting to know…Jim

That is one for the books and something extraordinarily special beginning to end. A grail watch for anybody and one that looks great in your wrist. Thank you for sharing the experience and with the man himself ! Ben 

The event was special. Such nice people, young and not so young . The people at FP Journe are a class act…Jim

Looks like it was a fun event. Enjoy your new watch in the best of health.

How fortunate we both are to enjoy our time with such wonderful people and passions…Jim

Looks like you had a good time in great company, that is palpable from the photos (the watch aint bad either haha)!

Yes the GTG was better than the watches, I only wish San Diego had a group like this. The watches are a special treat, we are very fortunate to have then and enjoy others than enjoy the same passion…Jim

Mine says hi 😜

13 has a great camera, and some of the photos are my wife from the stairs above us…Jim

I walked past the boutique last night on the way to dinner and wondered what was on. Wish I’d dropped in now 😭

Of the event, I wish you had stopped in, great fun…Jim

Huge Congrats and looks like you had a amazing time at the event. Thanks for sharing

Yes the event was well done and lots of fun. I’m very fortunate to be able to share these times and watches we all love…Jim

Im so happy for you and its easy to feel your enthusiasm. I think you have considered it well.

My enthusiasm showed through at the party when we all got a l laugh out of what my business card has on it. It states I’m the CEO (Chief Excitement Officer) of my company and it certainly shows though with my demeanor, sometimes too much . I’m happy I ordered the 42mm and the platium combination, I’ll let others have there opinion on that and hope my pictures help other decide on the 40mm versus 42mm question I hear a lot. Sharing watches with like people is very hard to find, in person, it was a real treat to see old friends and meet new ones…Jim

and enjoy it in great health!

I can’t take the watch off and since I set it Tuesday morning (over 48 hours) it has only lost 3 seconds with the resonance working perfectly. What a fantastic creation by Mr. Journe and meeting him was a treat…Jim

But I’m on their list now and look forward to attending again soon…Jim

A watch to end watch collecting, I know it’s been positioned as that for some of us here.  Many congrats on acquiring it. 

Yes this is a very special watch like no other. The complexity, design, hand work, the materials, the invention(s) and it is so classy without showing off, Mr. Journe is in the R.W. Smith or Kari world of genius. And yes as you say “A watch to end watch collecting” is an appropriate saying, thank your for that. I didn’t know Mr. Journe couldn’t speak english at first so it was pretty funny as I kept taking but Cedrick rescued me as his interpreter. I will continue to send pictures and reports on my beautiful watch I’m so grateful to have…jim

Congratulations to you....
