You may be right
perhaps we should not care that the watch can time to 1/100, and just appreciate if for it's horological achievement and artistry, and this is a valid point (and to be honest, it's the approach I lean toward with this watch).
And we probably don't buy nice mechanical watches for their accuracy anyway. On the other hand I expect the complications on my watches to be accurate to reasonable degree, not impossibly off by magnitudes of their advertised design--and this is a conundrum with the Centigraphe, no matter how you feel about its artistry.
1/100th or not? Why Care!?!??
I love that Centigraph has the ability to measure 1/100th of a second. And that is the raison d'etre of this watch. I have read with interest many comments about whether this watch works or is accurate to 1/100th because humans cannot react that fast. But...

Well said. This is a revolutionary watch. It may not replace electric Olympic stopwatches
But once again, M. Journe has created a wholly unique and innovative approach to the standard solution. Bravo
I think Journe is just being Romantic....
We have Resonance that he can't really explain how it works and we are not even sure if it works to begin with and then a Centigraph that pose more questions if it should really be called Centigraph........ but what's interesting is the belief in creating...
Absolutely Agree
John's observation is spot on mark. Literalism is the ruination of creativity, and if we read Journe's own accounts of his work it is both historic in the tradition of great and innovative watchmakers beginning with Breguet yet with both a modern interpre...
Totally Agree with....Douglas
Mr Journe said:I don't want my customer to pay more for the finishing of the movement!!!!! I ask myself 2 question... Who can't make beautiful finish watches???? Who can make accurate & stable(Resonance)watches? I ever own a CS & now is Resonance....
Precisely the reason I'm so crazy about Journe watches!
Journe brilliantly combines creativity, innovation, and craftsmanship while respecting/challenging the principles of horology. Every piece in his collection has a distinctive and defining feature that exemplifies Journe's vision and passion. No other bran...
