Thank you Martin. From how I see FP Journe's philosophy in watchmaking, I doubt he will make more than one. Regards, skyeriding [nt]

Dear Skyeriding
Thank you very much for this in depth and fascinating analysis of the FPJ timepiece for Only Watch 2017. It should be the star of this next November auction in my opinion. I'm impatient to see the result of this FPJ but, more importantly, to see what will...
huge disagreement...
after reading the article twice, the disclaimer statement "a non-professional hobbyist" is difficult to agree with ! Thanks for sharing - very educational & felt happy reading it ! Best, mahesh.,

Thank you for this incredible contribution

Superbly analysed, written and illustrated - a masterpiece...

Many thanks Magnus,
A quick remark - I wrote this purely off mechanical logic and some math, so I could be entirely wrong on the precision part. A watchmaker would be way more credible to verify that! In the case of the Piguet 1185, since it comes in both variants of monopus...
Excellent technical post!
Thanks so much for all the time writing it. Most appreciated.
