F.P. Journe Classique Chronometre Optimum REFERENZ CO PT 42 A SI

Francois-Paul Journe is widely considered one of the greatest living watchmakers, with each new innovation he adds another chapter to horological history. The Latin phrase “Invent et Fecit” translation “invented and made” is F.P. Journe’s trademark, guaranteeing original design and exacting execution. Since the presentation of Journe’s first watch collection in 1999, he’s created numerous, profound timepieces– among the most notable, the Chronomètre à Résonance. The wristwatch featured a scaled-down version of Breguet’s concept of resonance with twin movements that had only been produced in pocket watches. An abundance of exceptional models followed, including the Octa Quantième Perpétuel, Centigraphe, Elegante, and Linesport. Francois-Paul Journe and his namesake brand are recognized worldwide for their remarkable and continued contributions to horological science and contemporary watchmaking.
