So glad to hear of your enjoyable experience! FP Journe is truly a genius, one of the great maisons in all of watchmaking, and his timepieces are of the highest horological level.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I had a similar one at the same boutique with “Jack” but didn’t take any photos or video because I was asked to refrain. Delighted that the london Boutique is to open soon…

Thank you for sharing. I personally also recommend the book F.P.Journe which you can order through the boutique. You learn a lot about Mr. Journe himself and his work through the book, this also help build the relation with the boutique as a side merit. Regards.

That's interesting!

It is a great company in the watch industry. Despite her relatively short life, which does not exceed 24 years. But it has become a cool, cool name that rivals giants like Breguet, Patek Philippe and Lang & sohne. She has produced masterpieces over these years. Watches are my eternal love. Thanks for this video

Thank you! I've been trying to get information on boutiques and experiences are scant. It seems very tough to get a watch

That's true. Information about getting one of these is truly limited. Glad this video could help a little!

Oh, this is something I'm curious about too.

Just out of interest, did they mention how much they were selling the Elegante for? Been looking to buy one for some time. Don't want to pay £35k for the cal.1210 40 on the grey market though haha

Unfortunately, I didn't ask them about the Elegante, but I think the price is around 30-35k at retail.

Don't go to the Geneva boutique. First thing you'll hear is "there is nothing for sale here" or "the watches don't have movements inside". One of the most unfriendly visits I had so far...

Hey Marko! I'm pleasantly surprised seeing you found my video! I enjoy your content :) And I'm sorry to hear that. It seems like your experience was the opposite of mine. I would expect better from them.

@@eugenejohnson7755 No. A year or so ago. There was zero intention of teaching me something or explaining the brand. It's basically "you probably know that we have nothing for sale and you probably know enough about the brand already". Not a good vibe. But friends who own FPJ watches say it's a great boutique so I guess I need one to be treated better.

What is so special about this watch other than being exclusive? Is it super accurate?

It's super complicated to develop, the handwork is really beautiful, and FP Journe has a legendary status now as making some of the most unique and intricate watches. That said, I don't believe any watch is worth tens of thousands of dollars, and that's just a premium you pay for the brand name.
