Here is an other I have tried many times. The Repetition Souveraine from 2008. I love it for its stealth quality and very slim and elegant steel case. Some say it’s not the best sounding repeater out there but it is certainly not bad either. I would love to add this one day too.

Key Points from the Discussion

The Chronomètre Bleu (CB) is considered by some to be the quintessential F.P. Journe, a piece they would keep above all others, despite the allure of other references.
The Tourbillon Souverain T10, a limited edition of 10 pieces celebrating the Tokyo boutique's 10th anniversary, is highly regarded for its unique dial and case material, often preferred over the T30.
The T10 is a grail piece for many, admired for its simple aesthetic on the front and the stunning tourbillon movement visible through the caseback.
While the F.P. Journe Repetition Souveraine is praised for its design, some connoisseurs note its chiming sound can be fainter compared to other minute repeaters.
Market dynamics can rapidly change accessibility, with some F.P. Journe references becoming priced out of reach within months.
The Chronomètre Optimum and Vagabondage series are frequently cited as highly desirable F.P. Journe dream watches.

This is priced out of my range now; 6 months ago, when the cost was substantially lower, I thought about it but I was too slow.

I am no connoisseur when it comes to the tone of chiming watches but I can certainly tell you the sound was *faint*. More so than any other minute repeater I've heard.
