To F.P. Journes credit he did develop and manufacture a tourbillion by himself in 5 years. That takes companies millions of dollars, a designteam and a lot of years to create and release. Not to mention all the other weird horological problems he sometimes solves seemingly for his own enjoyment. You can't deny how good of a watchmaker he is.

This may not be a watch for me but I'm very pleased that these watches are made to such a standard that I can appreciate from a distance. We need people like FPJ and others to move forward with new creations even if they may be out of reach or cannot justify.

Don't feel bad. I seem to remember someone asking Philippe Dufour if he owned one of his own watches and he said no, he couldn't afford it.

With Journe there is such an an immediate realization of “Oh Boy This Is Special.” No need to research history or specs to quantify its significance. You just know the moment your eyes make contact. That is how I felt about 15 years ago when I first saw an image of one. I had no idea how much they cost or where they stood in the market. They are just so intrinsically interesting and gorgeous. There are many watches I love but at the end of the day F.P. Journe is the epitome of what I want a watch to be. Pure Magic.

It's a beautiful watch with class and pedigree. The movement is incredibly eye catching with all the FP DNA. Stunning 😍. I could never trust myself to own one, in fear of whalloping it on a door handle or something. I absolutely love it

The self awareness in this video is incredible 🤣, no one should ever be disheartened at the fact they can't afford a Journe or an A Lange and Sohne or any watch from the trinity of watchmakers.

FPJ and Kurt Klaus are my watchmaking idols

i"m a watch enthusiast although i cant afford such collectible pieces and ive heard about th FP watches especially thier amazing 18 function astronomic. one time i owned a Longine which was gifted to me by a relative and as time went by, i got some kind of affection for this watch even though back then i didnt know much about watches. the amazing thing i loved about that watch was the sound of its beat whenever i layed down to sleep as i placed my head on my whrist. i got so hurt when i got back home one time and my sister told me how she borrowed my watch without my coscent and she lost it on thier school party. up until now ive never recovered. it was later when i learned that was a kind of watch problably i will never afford in my life.

This watch feels like a love letter to watch making watch papi is a lucky guy to have it in his watch chest

Mr FP journe is Person who I would admire , one of things is that he create a young talent competition were he reward the winner with watchmaking tools and money to start his career , that is noble act on itself. Unlike big corporate companies who spends budget trying to market their watches without improving the product itself and some of these brands unfortunately are a victims of marketing strategy that higher administrative positions is trying to do, they wishes so much to be the next FP journe or Derek Pratt etc but they lack the traces that Independents had. I had an incident where I try to get a custom feature on a dress watch model that can be easily fulfilled by any watchmaker basically but I got a rejection letter stating that work can be easily done BUT it’s not that ambitious and cost of making it is way below target price although they contradict what they say on their strategy (( Jaquet Droz 2.0 version )) as they claim 😂.

If it does it for you, great, but I found a watch I couldn't just buy on a whim, and started saving my money for it. It will be months before I can buy it, but I will love it all the more when I get it, and it was love at first sight. All for a watch that costs maybe 1/15th the price of that FP Journe.

Rambling but oh so cute. You were nice to FPJ he has been criticized fairly hard by many. Nice job Britt! 🥃

Superb summary at the end...you had me feeling a little guilty up to that..

This one does nought for me but somehow that's the point. It is however a special thing with skill and imagination and as you say it's part of the broad spectrum that makes watches special to us. To think I just bought a new very fancy OLED TV and thought gosh that's a lot, it's about a quarter the price of my last watch...Perspective - nah, we're all just mad and we need some madness in our lives.

I love the idea of getting a Journe CS. But the problem is I generally don’t dress to match something that formal, suiting something like the resonance more (like the boujee birch that I am) but I can’t get one without getting an entry level one 😭😭😭. As for justifying it? There is no justification. Our lives are short and we’re all aware of our inevitable end. So, if you find independent horology gives you that little fleeting feeling of joy every time you see it, then that’s all the justification you need. And you’re right about being passionate for things you won’t buy yourself. I love MB&F, I went to their new London boutique yesterday. I wouldn’t buy 80% of their lineup, but loved it all! And to kinda quote John Mayer: “It doesn’t matter how much it costs, it has to hurt”. I say this to my friends who are now getting into horology, it can be a £50 Seiko or a £50,000 Patek, you need that pang of disbelief that you’ve just spent that much on something functionally pretty useless!

"...single barrel watch nears the end of the power reserve it starts losing more time.". Isn't it the other way around? At the end of the power reserve the main spring cannot push the balance wheel to its full amplitude, and the watch gains time, not loses it. And of course it's not really the end of the power reserve, but that's another story.

Uh, all that money and you can't even go swimming in it?

The dial looks like it is made of chocolate. I think that is a compliment...

I look at FPJ and think "if Tim Burton started a watch brand". FPJ is reserved for the elite, or the investor convinced that when FPJ eventually pops his clogs, the watches made during his lifetime will disappear into the stratosphere. I appreciate FPJ's artistry, but I also find this segment of horology not a part of the watch industry I look to or particularly admire (agnostic of the money). There are plenty of other brands pushing the envelope far more than FPJ when it comes to artistry, engineering and design.
