I find the centigraphe and resonance in this collection especially compelling.
Great comprehensive review as always.
Yes, really nice, but I also like the look of the Chrono and Tourbillon.
Thank you for the kind words. Best, Emmanuel
They all are really beautiful F.P. Journe watches

Thank you, Christian.
This Tokyo Series is really wonderful and it's great that you've been able to get the Chronograph, which a very special piece. As I find it very photogenic personally, I can easily imagine how beautiful it is in real life. Have a very nice weekend! Best, ...
