  • Catalogue Essay

    An evolution of the CHF1.15M 'OnlyWatch' Rattrapante that was Journe's first split-second wristwatch, this solid 18ct rose gold execution also features a large date complication that balances the dial perfectly. This example, is found in practically untouched condition and comes complete with the original box, certificate, USB and cloth. The 44mm case that houses the manual wind calibre 1518, is designed without traditional lugs, so the bracelet hugs the wrist comfortably, whilst also showing off the hand-finished movement perfectly.

    F.P. Journe

    Swiss • 1999

    Founded by watchmaker François-Paul Journe in 1999, the F.P. Journe brand is relatively young, but already is as highly regarded by collectors as many distinguished manufacturers with centuries-old heritage. In the minds of the world's savviest collectors, Journe is producing some of the finest wristwatches the market has ever seen. Mastering his craft from restoring historical timepieces, he was the first to create a wristwatch incorporating two escapements that benefit from the phenomenon of resonance — the Chronomètre à Résonance.

    Key models include the Résonance, tourbillon wristwatches incorporating a remontoir and the limited edition Vagabondage series. Especially sought-after are his earliest "souscription" watches, made in 1999.
