Something Done Right: Combat-ing Fake Accessories At F.P. Journe

I just wanted to recognize something done right at the F.P. Journe website! I logged onto the www.fpjourne.com website today and saw this banner telling me to avoid these fake items! Apparently wall clocks (is that a wall clock?), keychains, something wit

Thanks for your effort, Bill.

Not sure if it was AI or you, but I'm happy to see the "balancing act" picture of my RG/WG Centigraphe in the OG post 😎 .....and since very little was mentioned about the lightest Aluminum version, please don't mind if I add a picture of my latest FP acqu

Bill, would it be possible to integrate links to the older threads into these summaries? Footnotes perhaps.

Perhaps with the original thread title and date. This could be a win win for all, as some will be happy with the summary thread but others will then be eager to dive into the full historical postings. To add, one can’t reference all the original threads a

The FP Journe Centigraphe: Community Insights.

The F.P. Journe Centigraphe Souverain remains one of the most mechanically intriguing chronographs discussed within our community. The watch's origin story is pure automotive romance; François-Paul Journe originally conceived the idea after a legendary vi

Thank you, Christian.

For me, certain watches, like your Chronomètre Souverain or my Cornes de Vache, but also several other models of course, although different, share a common timeless quality that I like very much. I wish you a nice and peaceful weekend. Best, Emmanuel

Getting what was then the original CTS and Octa Sport on the wrist changed my perception a lot.

And then a few years later the CTS Titane, which I ultimately bought. For both the CTS and Octa the weight of course was a factor, but also the roundness of the case, links etc. The Octa may even been the better watch aesthetically in my opinion.

Your collection is incredible. I agree completely. My wish list is literally every FPJ available.

When I first saw the elegante I wasn’t sure esp bc it’s quartz. But once I realized it was FPJ version of quartz (after reaching the end of YouTube content) and tried it on, it was love at first sight (soft of). Now I’m eagerly awaiting an opportunity to

Hump Day Wednesday 🐪

No matter how many FPJs you own, somehow there’s always “that other reference” quietly living rent-free in your head. 😎 The dangerous part with Journe isn’t buying the first one… it’s realizing each model scratches a completely different itch. Curious whi

This is true Jay. Any Resonance is the one to have.

I absolutely adore mine. It is the most satisfying and treasured watch in my collection. I considered trading it for the Ruthinium but that ship has sailed too far by now. I can’t help thinking though, that if one would be the owner of an R, one would in
