Congratulations on 4 masterpieces.
It’s interesting; I also got into watches via panerai (had to wait for my 359, back then, so got a sub-no-date to fill the void back then), then AP and then independents (FPJ and Gronefeld and Frodsham etc etc). A friend also started with panerai and ended up with an FPJ CB (back when they were offered at discount) and duffourograph (Lange).
What a wonderful hobby this is. Enjoy the scenery my friend !
First post and first FPJ
Visited a FP Journe boutique 3 years ago and expressed interest in a CS and a LN. This year, right before Christmas I received a surprise email - and the rest is history. As an icing on the cake it comes with a great serial number.. by the way what do I m...
[type something here]
So here’s my story. I started with Panerai, and jumped straight to Audemars Piguet. I still remember the excitement of unboxing the Pam111 and the years spent eyeing the royal oak offshore but couldn’t get myself to spend that kind of money on a watch. My...

I also started with Panerai and moved into AP 😊 This was my first AP in 2002 ...

Thanks for sharing your experience and journeys but let me tell you something important.
There isn’t such a thing like an End Game watch 🫣. You just tipped your toes in a new rabbit hole by joining this great community and we will suck you in even more deeper into watch collecting. So prepare your family and your financial people around you b...

What a beautiful catch. Also thank you for writing a little about your interest and collecting Journey. I highly appreciate it. I hope your new piece will bring you many hours of enjoyment. Christian
Congratulations.
And just to note, you are far from alone on the journey from Panerai to Journe. Strange and windy as it may be, it’s a path many have travelled !! Look forward to seeing and hearing more from you.
Thank you for all the warm messages!
Can’t wait to share more pics - still traveling around icy mountains and crowded theme parks. Out of curiosity how does FPJ serial no. work? Mine is x-xxx LN. Are they in sequence ie. 1-001 means the 1001th piece made for a particular model?
This is my understanding:
FPJ makes a watch 001—they keep it aside—and the first thousand become watch with no leading number. Then is series 2 - watches 1001 to 1999, then series 3 - watches 2001 to 2999 and so on. For example: if your watch is 2-777, it should be the 1775th made...
Huge congratulations 🎉
And a warm welcome here . Please tell us more about your collection 🙏🏻
