Anyone else feeling like they’re over FP Journe? They’re beautiful watches with great engineering and architectural prowess, but what’s even the point of marvelling at these pieces when you can’t even get them? If you want to get one first hand, you have to go to one of their ~10 boutiques, beg like a dog, write a literal ESSAY (seriously!) about why you should be a potential customer, and just maybe they’ll consider you “worthy” of a piece. Either that or spend exorbitant amounts second hand. I’d rather buy any other brand and call it a day 🤷♂️
You're on a board for people who buy aftermarket watches and you carry on with this nonsense about not being able to buy it. If you have the money, you can buy it.
Their finishing is severely lacking, although it has gotten better over the years. Nontheless, FP. journe is extremely overhyped and overpriced on the secondary market imo.
Absolutely gorgeous. In their own league and class.
Just like Cinderella…perfect fit.
This is my grail but I'd have to sell all my Rolex and Pateks to buy it :(
Love the design language but the price is WAY too high for the quality of finishing. I can see why people pay exorbitant prices for these though.
Gorgeous end of. FPJ the best in the business

This piece demonstrates why FPJ is at the very top of the timepiece food chain. They are unrivalled.
They’re definitely rivaled in the area of finishing. There are dozens of maisons that make better finished timepieces.

I can list a dozen watchmakers that are objectively superior in quality to FP Journe.
