Description
I'm pleased to present a Vagabondage II and III, in excellent condition, complete with box and papers.
The Vagabondage II and III in platinum were both limited to only 69 pieces and this is an extremely rare watch from F.P. Journe.
These are exceptional pieces featuring my favorite case design from F.P. Journe - the tortue (turtle) case design.
Both watches were seldomly used.
The Vagabondage II, which was first sold over a decade ago will be delivered freshly serviced.
Both watches are in platinum, purchased from an F.P. Journe boutique, and have matching serial numbers.
Both watches are supplied with F.P. Journe deployment buckles.
Both watches have box and papers, complete with original Certificates indicating their original purchase from an F.P. Journe boutique.
Owned by a careful owner who has multiple pieces in his collection, these two watches were well carefully kept and treasured as the collectors items they are.
I'm pleased to offer the Vagabondage II at $229,000 USD. And $299,000 USD for the Vagabondage III. Pieces are available individually or as a set.
These two pieces have matching serial numbers and are both limited to 69 pieces. Serial number is a desirable serial number; low number and no fours.
Thank you for your consideration.

📖 About This Reference
The F.P. Journe Vagabondage I represents the inaugural reference in the Vagabondage series, introduced in 2004. This reference establishes the foundation for F.P. Journe's exploration of unconventional time display concepts within a compact case format.
The 36.5mm platinum case houses the manual-winding caliber 1509 movement, delivering 40 hours of power reserve. The silver dial is protected by sapphire crystal, while a fixed bezel maintains clean lines. Water resistance extends to 30 meters, and the watch is completed with a leather strap.
This reference appeals to collectors seeking F.P. Journe's approach to alternative time displays in a more intimate case size. The platinum construction and manual movement align with the brand's commitment to traditional materials and hand-winding mechanisms. As the first Vagabondage reference, it occupies a specific position for collectors interested in F.P. Journe's horological concepts beyond conventional displays.

Special day, special watch. All the best for 2026 to everyone here !
Christian has kept the Journe storyboard conflict-free. Special day required special Vagabondage watch. Despite irregular wear, the watch still holds appeal. Unique design and personal story behind purchase.

FP Friday 🤗 what Journe is on your wrist today
Writer discusses encountering a collector with a unique Vagabondage iii watch. Despite being diamond-set, the piece is less flashy than expected. The Vagabondage series is admired, with this particular one being described as animated and cool on the wrist.

I believe he is selling them on behalf.... of someone else. That's what the ad reads like to me ....

I concur! I affectionately call the Vagabondage II "The Christmas Tree." Nobody in my family agrees with me that there's a slight resemblance to a Christmas tree.

Yep! That’s what I’ve known it as—the Christmas tree. These are two great pieces! Wish my account could stomach it!

Begs the question who owns Vagabondage I of the same number. These are two fantastic watches, and something I know there is a strong demand for. To be determined where the fair price is, but auction results and private purchases I am aware of in the recent months and years have been strong.
Good luck to the seller.
