Way too rich for me.
Octa Lune is an interesting call, I wasn’t expecting that one.
The T is the obvious missing one, and FP’s choice which is the Optimum. For me the T is not that appealing, but an Optimum would be nice.
François Friday - Getting the gang together. And, is the gang complete?
I don’t believe I’ve ever had these together in one place before, let alone taken a picture. In any event, hopefully brightening up Friday and the weekend for everyone with a gaggle of Journe. I’d be curious to what people think about this particular spre...
CB for me, the digital counter second!
Don’t know enough to suggest anything but I’ll just admire!
The other two yes, maybe,..
Get an Octa Lune, and maybe a full gold bracelet tourb which I think is pure BOSS status.

That would be a great addition ...
If you have to keep the number constant - I love the resonance as an intellectual concept but I don't find it so enjoyable in reality. Te VH classic is almost on the other and of the spectrum, a pure emotion.
Personally, and I’ve said this here before, the Resonance is THE Journe.
Mine is old, and with the white gold dial does not have the same presence as the others of the same era. But I do enjoy it on the wrist, because it’s a little more subtle. The Classic I’ve chased for a while and had some near misses, but I’m afraid it’s n...
first thing first...impressive collection you've got - I admire your brand loyalty !
Tourbillon will be an obvious choice to add to your collection, but a Black label would differentiate it ? (may be a T10 or T30 also) or swap the Vagabondage 2 to a Vagabondage 1 you shd keep CB & Resonance IMHO but then i'll let go Centigraph...but that ...
Thanks Mahesh.
Firstly I’m not seriously considering any change, it was more an exercise to see how our forum members think. Always interesting to hear other people’s viewpoints. Re the Vagabondage, the II is absolutely my favourite. Visually more pleasing than the VI, ...
Yes. That would be a good addition.
The Optimum is probably my favourite of those that might be within reach.
Firstly - that strap on the resonance looks cool AF
I’d add the Optimum myself. Or trade a couple into a T
Thanks. Search for some previous posts, it shows it better and yes it seems to work very well.
The Optimum would be FP’s choice too.
You NEED to add the quantieme perpetuel, in any metal.
How to get it without letting something go? harvest some “trees”😂😂😂 Impressive collection.
Yes, need to find those trees!
The QP, a beautiful watch but the modern Perpetual loses some of that Journe appeal for me. A great looking watch, and a super layout for the information you need, but design language that appeals to me.
I don’t think anything is missing ...
Especially not if you had to let something go. You have chosen each piece after careful consideration, from what I understand from previous posts. I think the most important in collecting, is to find your own crop on the brand. These are all great pieces ...
Thanks Christian.
To be clear, the question was merely to hear other’s views and how they might think about putting a little Journe bunch together. I’m pretty happy with this foursome and it’s at this point clearly the core of my collecting. There’s no tiredness or fatigue...
Well noted 😊
As you say, they each hold their place, which makes a lot sense as a curating approach. I wholeheartedly agree on the T10. That is a dream watch for me as well. Although it would take a lot of luck and money to realize.
A well thought after collection.
Don’t sell anything. Just try to safe up for that Tourbillon to add in the future if possible
No intentions of selling or trading any of them....
Another vote for a Tourbillon. Do you have a favourite?
You could absolutely be content with that foursome.
I guess if they were mine I would be tempted to unload the Vagabondage and get the Optimum; or a tourbillon.
100% content with this group, no question about that.
Hypothetical question only. I think the Vagabondage, which you’ve hand in your own hands, is not to everyone’s taste. And for sure, it doesn’t have the wrist presence that a Optimum or Tourbillon might have. I will say the black dial rose gold case Optimu...
Maybe something in Steel? :)
It seems you have all the metals covered... except steel! So, grow a few money trees and get something in steel, and the RM would be a perfect addition to your collection if your trees grow well! If not, my vote is for an Optimum, black label or a dial th...
No bells for me I think!
An older RM is appealing. But as I mentioned above to our resident (Mad) Druid Optimum with a rose gold case and black dial is very appealing. 40mm. If it was 38mm I’d be thinking more though.
FPJ's are great watches
I am a bit puzzled if there really is a piece that you let go. Interesting to see what will be your next FPJ. I know some people who have FPJ, but unfortunately that brand is out of my price range.
Thanks for checking in Jari.
There is really no piece I could see letting go willingly. The question was more to see what other people’s opinions might be. There are several approaches to a four watch Journe collection, and numerous notable pieces in his back catalogue which could be...
