I mean the combo FPJ / QP / blue dial and even more the combo FPJ QP / elegant woman’s wrist

thanks Mike, my dear friend

Can’t see the elegant girl, the watch is in the way

 
 By: cazalea : December 10th, 2024-23:48

Yes, true :-) :-)

but this is unfortunately all I can show

The day and month windows should be higher...it would drive me crazy...

Now that you mention it...

Some things once seen, are hard to unsee.

It's a curse, trust me...

Not only that but the 3 and the 9… 😱

 
 By: Esharp : December 11th, 2024-02:38

That is on purpose and better than occluding them

The perimeter of the guilloché area is oval.

I don't mind that so much as it's a design decision...

 
 By: mdg : December 12th, 2024-18:24

Yes fine with me as well

 
 By: ChristianDK : December 13th, 2024-08:21

yes, its something that bothers me a bit as well. I think it has to do with the dial design bc on the previous version it looked harmonius but the geometry hasnt changed.

My take on the latest QP

 
 By: India Whiskey Charlie : December 11th, 2024-01:31
I always loved the previous version but this one somehow looked odd with the day and month windows being so close to the center due to the fact that the same calibre 1300 from the previous version was used. FP should have made a revision and moved those windows up. That said, I prefer the silver dial version due to the matching windows background and as always I also prefer the platinum 40 mm case.





And, the previous version:




Im with you Viken

 
 By: ChristianDK : December 11th, 2024-14:21
even if I like the new dial design, I think this first one is more harmoneus. I dont think the day, month look too close to the centre here. 

To me, the steel frame is more original but the design of the leap year indicator is a bit disturbing to the harmony. However, the new design made the watch a lot more popular where the old one was a hard sell it is hardly the situation with the new one.

It looks very good to me!

 
 By: quattro : December 11th, 2024-01:49

yes, its a beautiful piece :-) thanks for looking.

 
 By: ChristianDK : December 11th, 2024-14:25

I had the pleasure of handling one from a close friend a few days ago . Like you said its not a watch that gets a lot of attention.

 
 By: Watchonthewrist : December 11th, 2024-07:19
My friend got a serious and amazing collection of FPJs and for some reason this watch got my attention each time i looked in the box .

I am a fan of this watch 👌🏻😘

I am a fan too, my friend. I think it is perhaps less spectacular than a Resonance or Optimum - could that be the reason?

 
 By: ChristianDK : December 11th, 2024-14:31
In the end its a classic complication, done well with so many brands so a lot more competiton. Aalso the design is perhaps not as distinct as some of the brands other pieces. However its still a very harmoniuos watch with great proportions in the case and a very well executed PC movement.

Nice and very elegant QP 👌🏻👍🏻

 
 By: KMII : December 11th, 2024-10:21
Is there a special significance to the numerals 3 and 9 being smaller than the rest? I mean the watch would have space for fully sized ones…

As I explained above, that is on purpose...

 
 By: India Whiskey Charlie : December 11th, 2024-13:08
The perimeter of the guilloché area is oval.

Thanks 🙏🏻

 
 By: KMII : December 11th, 2024-16:19

thanks my friend

 
 By: ChristianDK : December 11th, 2024-14:40
I like it too. If you look at the previous design it is perhaps a bit clearer why it was nessesary. The oval shape was moved over in the gillouche but perhaps it is not as convincing. Hmm, the more a look at it, the more I think I might prefer the old design.





Thanks for adding this clarifying shot 👌🏻👍🏻

 
 By: KMII : December 11th, 2024-16:19
More reasonable from this perspective 😊

Thanks Christian for bringing this back

into our attention. Instantaneous 4 window date change and the removal of any pushers to adjust is a winner in functionality and capability.

My preference is the RG version of this watch for its extra contrast for improved readability

A pleasure as i felt its a bit overlooked. Yes it’s a very well thought and executed PC watch

 
 By: ChristianDK : December 13th, 2024-08:25
I Think most PCs are just impossible to read. This one is great and with a very harmonious design.
