• Fitted with a black dial exclusive to the Black Label series
• Well-preserved and with certificate of authenticity
__
The present Octa Calendrier is part of the exclusive Black Label series, paired with a 38mm platinum case and an 18 karat rose gold automatic movement. The Black Label series is exclusively offered to pre-existing Journe owners, on an application basis and consists of a platinum case paired with a black dial.
In production between 2005 and 2014, the Octa Calendrier features an annual calendar complication with retrograde-style date sector, presented in the firm’s iconic asymmetrical dial layout. Fitted with a 22-karat gold off-centered rotor, the feature enables a higher efficiency for self-winding. The watch has a contemporary look, with unequivocal signs of traditional watchmaking thanks to the iconic blued steel hands and guilloché decoration on the main dial.
At the time of this writing, it is only the second appearance of a 38mm Octa Calendrier Black Label at auction, making it exceptionally rare. It comes accompanied by an F.P. Journe Certificate of Authenticity, instruction manual, and fitted presentation box. Its rarity, exclusiveness, and completeness makes the present watch an outstanding opportunity for the astute connoisseur.

F.P. Journe
Swiss | 1999Founded 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.
