Our Thoughts:
Most people might have seen the Chronometre Bleu more frequently online or amongst collectors, along with the Chronometre Bleu, this watch carries the traditions of a F.P. Journe but added a bit more youthfulness and excitement with the use of colour and textures. The rose gold case and rose gold movement creates a cohesive theme and the Havana dial is paired with white hands and details which brilliantly breaks up the brown-ish tones of the case and dial making this watch that little bit more exciting. The brand never like to settle for a simple solution where the dial is not simply a product of a lacquered finishing or a type of pigment, it is a combination of gold and ruthenium resulting in a brown tone that glistens under sunlight.
There are simply not many other brands that produces a watch quite like this one, aesthetically elegant and effortless, its got all the ingredients of a great F.P. Journe watch all whilst demonstration how finer details can change the look and feel of a watch.
