Thank you for your kind words

A true pleasure dear friend. Thank you for you for reading, Nico :-) [nt]

Oh yes, she certainly is.
Sadly, Maurine left 😢 She wanted to try to do something for herself.
Laure is top. She has a deep horological knowledge, and she's very cool. [nt]
No message body
Yes, she is. Exactly as you say, lots of knowledge and super nice. And always with a big smile 😊
But seriously, that applies to each of them at the boutique. It is a small but super strong team.
Bezel
Thanks for the great write-up, very informative! Do you think all 40mm watches will now have the smaller bezel?
Very good question
Im only guessing here!!! New model - i think so. I dont know if they will update all of the existing models. Those with many functions /crammed dials will benefit more. Larger apertures ect. The UTC could be an example that would be improved. I find it difficult to imagine a Chronometre Souverain in 40mm with a narrow bezel. Im not sure that would look better.

Thank you Christian....
I throughly enjoyed reading your report.
Having recently re-introduced myself to the brand, by adding a 40mm R/G CS, I am throughly enjoying wearing it.
I would love to get the Octa Automatique Lune, as that would be perfect.

The CS is very dear to me. One of my all time favorite watches and probably the watch I wear the most.
I agree with the Octa lune. There has been made some exquisite iterations. That watch has soul, in my view.
Fantastic post
and pictures! I’m really intrigued by the new Octa sport in platinum. Haven’t seen it in person yet. Thank you for taking the time to write this up and sharing your experience.

My pleasure 😄
Yes, that piece (unexpectedly) has caught my attention as well. Even after trying it, it keeps growing on me. I think this particular piece works extremely well in platinum compared with the Ti. It is very heavy though. There is a LOT of platinum in that bracelet. So one must enjoy heft in a watch.
Thank you so much chiming in.

Superb article! Nice to learn more bits of FPJ history. It's like a puzzle as you learn something new every time.
I'm with you on several points you made regarding the platinum LS piece and the new 40mm Octa with thinner bezels. I saw the new Octa in Miami back in March and really liked the aesthetic - including the blue text instead of black. Also the case back was updated to highlight the movement even more. Looking forward to the rest of 2019/2020 as I have a feeling FPJ will surprise and delight us with some interesting watches.
Thank you, for your kind words :-)
Yes - the blue text. I forgot that. That looks great. There is an refinement and aesthetic attention to detail in the FPJ universe that only find in a few other brands. There is a lot more to finish than anglage and and black polish.
Thank you for chiming in, my friend.
