  • Presenting part 3 of our retrospective on the watchmaking journey of François-Paul Journe, where he discusses his inspiration and, more importantly, his pursuit of precision chronometry. His obsession with chronometry led him to a single simple question, "What is the ideal watch I would make for myself?". That, in turn, became a chase down the rabbit hole, one that sparked the creation of the Chronométre Optimum and The Optimal Chronometer.
    Even though the idea to create his own watch started in 1984, François-Paul Journe lacked the wealth of experience required to work on the piece. He kept it in the drawer for more than a decade, and the Chronométre Optimum only saw the light of day in 2012, after the debut of Tourbillon Souverain and Chronometre Souverain.

    La meilleure interview de Fp. Journe, un ovni. D ieu seul sait comment la manufacture va muter dans les annees a venir. On est peut-etre en face d'un futur geant, du futur Rolex en terme de force de frappe et d'industrie. C'est dingue et je suis en admiration. Fp.Journe et P. Dufour/.. quelle chance de vivre a notre epoque !!!

      Pas vraiment journe n'a ni l'ambition ni l'envie de devenir une manufacture industrialisé

    What do you think about the Linesport yellow dial? I am on the wish list but I haven't seen the watch.

      Great watch! Extraordinary in person with the the yellow dial and wears smaller than it's dimensions...truly stunning piece. I have the same model with the gray dial and a close colleague has the yellow. I love both, but for very different reasons and occasions.
