Tourbillons ....
Finally I received an FPJ brochure; thanks a lot Bruno !!!
The Tourbillon Remontoir and Seconde Morte models are the two favorites of
mine, and I was curious how many different models (case-/dial -color etc)
are made of each.
In 2002 I saw a PT/YG Octa RDM and a Resonance (forgot its color scheme but
I think it was RG/WG but I can easily be mistaken) and both combo´s looked
mighty fine to me, but I was wondering what other options are available for
Journe Tourbillon watches (both, used and new).
Also, are (remontoir and jumping second) Journe Tourbillons available in
both 38 and 40mm cases or only in the 40mm size?

(will a FPJ watch be a cure to my Lange-itis??)

Hi Edwin....good to see you here :-)
Knowing your collection, I will strongly recommend a 38mm old remontoir tourbillon. You can considering getting PT version with YG or WG dial. The Old Remontoir Tourbillon is cool because you do get to see the remontoir in action rather than a dead second...
Same here ... good to see you here Edwin
What's not in the FPJ catalog is his new black label limited series.... you may want to consider: Black Label Dead Seconds which can be ordered in 38mm or 40mm....
Apologies for this late response ...
Thanks all for the kind comments!!; I feel already welcome here :-) I did handle Journe watches in 2002 when I purchased my Lange-1 ... I did like them alot (the RDM and Resonance are the ones shown to me back then) except for the crown Mr. Journe uses. I...
Dial variations
It's true there is some variance in dial colors particulary some of the older models. I've seen subdials that are more grey to stark white.
Thanks Brad, is the variance in color ...
only appearing in/on the subdials or on both the main dial and sub dials ? Your watch, f.i., the subdial looks white; is it? And the ´champagne´ YG dial. I have seen a YG dial that was, uhh, YG, but yours is looking different, more RG perhaps? Edwin
