Hi Christian
TGIF. This one just arrived today. A belated Xmas watch which we purposely delayed for later to avoid any mishaps in delivery during the festive period. I’ll be wearing this one for awhile I believe. 
I’m very proud of this one, as I designed the dial with the CEO of Andersen Genève.

F.P. Friday with this one - true love never dies
And this one is my true love. A watch that I will most probably have for the rest of my life. (Unless someone gifted me the ruthinium 😁) Have a wonderful weekend everyone Please share your wrist wear Christian ...
Not hard to understand why it really is a beautiful F.P. Journe.
I am awaiting an incoming that I am sure will dominate my wrist for quite a while so making the most of my Breguet Type XXI until it arrives. Breguet Type XXI Marc ...
Lovely. Can’t wait to see what you have coming
I know that “waiting fever” too well 😊
Happy FPJ Friday! I love this watch. A true grail. Unattainable in today’s market really.
I’m traveling for work to a warm climate so no FPJ for me. But here’s a shot from yesterday. ...
I’ve had a few straps made with rubber linings - Jean Rousseau.
These work pretty well in warm, humid climates. Im not sure they necessarily stop all the sweating but they can be wiped down after wear to stop any smells!
Good idea.
But since I may go into the ocean I just wear a watch on a bracelet. Stay tuned for photos.

Huge, huge congratulations with this amazing project
I love Svend. I met him a few. Times and he is a great and interesting person. I’m very interested to hear more. Pls tell about the dial motif. That is Wonderful! Congratulations again 👌😊 Best Christian
Haha, yes. And even if they gifted you the Ruthenium…
I have a placeholder for now, will be seeing some Journe friends later and so that can be FP Friday ! Will try to get a wrist shot to share but you know those folks are a little touchy about that !!! 😂 ...
This monochrome Résonance is simply fantastic!
I'm not surprised you like it so much, dear Christian. I wish you a wonderful weekend too! Best, Emmanuel PS: on my wrist, well, you know... sorry for showing the same watch over and over again... ...
such a GREAT watch....enjoy, Emmanuel 👍
On my FP Journe *Journey* I considerably trimmed my PP collection....but the 5098 stays....without any doubt 🥂 ...
Thank you, Miloš!
I'm glad you consider keeping your 5098. The R variant is gorgeous too, really (I could even see myself owning both someday, even if it isn't likely). Best, Emmanuel
Thank you so much, dear Emmanuel.
This watch just looks right on you. I don’t think you can overshow this watch, ever! For me, the most enjoyable part of this forum is our real life with our beloved watches. All the artificial staging you can find on instagram. I prefer real life. I have ...
I completely agree with you:
I much prefer real life too! I wish you a nice week ahead. Best, Emmanuel
Certainly an heirloom piece!
I think it would likely be the last to go in most people’s collection. I have the latest generation. How do you find the winding on this one given the crown placement? ...
Now, that is truly stunning.
Such an interesting and meaningful piece. I think the winding / setting is certainly improved on your piece. What you do with mine is turn it back to front and wind it with the thumb. The reason is that the crown sticks out further on the back. The issue ...
Thank you for your kind comment, my dear friend.
I hope you had a beautiful weekend 😊
Kristjan, you really are the loveliest man.
Thank you for your kind words. And right back at you. You have a wonderful and sophisticated sense of detail. Your Habring is so elegant and well executed. Did you have it on an other strap previously? Have a great weekend ahead, dear friend.
