Some quick and dirtys from your man in Geneva at the F.P. Journe Salon
I will try to explain more regarding the novelties later but until then I wanted to share these with you. I’ve now moved on to the Watch & Wonders fair so will have to respond to your questions and comments later.
Until then. enjoy 😉
Good to see these beautiful watches from FPJ …
Excellent photos to give us a good feel for the novelties, which were your personal favourites ?
Thank you so much, dear friend.
Finally a bit of time to reply a full program yesterday….
The Vagabondage I blew me away. I’ve always loved this watch bit to finally see it in rose gold was amazing. I thing Jay has a point when he says that the Vagabondage trilogy is probably better in rose gold.

The Vagabondage ….
This version looks very “complete”.
I remember trying a new rose gold Vagabondage on in about 2017 and contemplating owning it. For various reasons I didn’t buy it, but I felt that rose gold looked perfect for this watch.

That must have been the Vagabondage ii then. Yes it looks great in rose gold.
Our friend Jay has one. I feel a sting of envy every time he posts it 😉👌
I like their turtle case!
I like turtles! They're not quite round, they're not quite square. What a perfect combination!
Yes, I agree. It’s an intricate design. I love it but it surely divides opinion
As with most interesting things in life there are strong opinions for or against it. Thank you so much for your commment.
True! Most poeple probably prefer the round case!
But not me, since I was a child, I always liked square cased watches. And I especially like turtles in general - even the animal.
This is awesome
Thank you for sharing all the photos. Looking forward to seeing these in person!
It’s a pleasure. Sorry to do it so rough but there is so much on the program here in GVA so time is sparse.
Lucky you! Thanks for sharing these photos. The vagabondage looks fabulous in gold, and I love that they reintroduced the Reserve de Marche (Automatique).
Yes, I do feel extremely lucky to be here. The Vagabondage has kept me sleepless.
I would love to buy one but alas slim chance.
Thanks Christian.
The Vagabondage looks good, as I said before gold was always its colour in my opinion.
Enjoy W&W and Geneve.
Let us know what blew your socks off at the show or generally around town. (But don’t tell us it was the destro GMT 😂).
Haha, no not the GMT…
At Watch & Wonders it was difficult to be blown away by novelties. I think many brands don’t keep the important releases for the fair any more. However it was a great opportunity to browse and see some of the smaller brands and see with the fingers. I think what I mainly felt was that my collection is in a good place with the path I have chosen and I don’t feel I am missing out on much, except I need to go in to Grand Seiko. They impress me both technically and aesthetically.
