Hello! First time on the FPJ Forum, wanted to get some opinions/reviews on the CS. Particularly looking at the Havana and the Blue. Would love to hear some thoughts and get some guidance ...
Never owned a Journe, and likely never will (be able to), but I think the Havana has far more visual interest (and will likely be more versatile). Either one, of course, is wonderful. Congrats to finding yourself in such a predicament. 🥳
To begin with, these two Journe dials are, for me, the best of the best. So there’s no wrong decision. If you find yourself in Paris out for the night, definitely the blue dial. If you’re on deck in the tropics off Anguilla, definitely the brown dial. Jus...
