F.P. Journe: The Boutiques have spring bars

The boutiques have spring bars. I was able to custom order Jean Rousseau straps and they were then delivered to the boutique. The boutique then installed the spring bars. As far as I know, they will not provide the spring bars directly. I would suggest contacting an AD who may have them in stock or

F.P. Journe: From a Monochrome Review

From a 2014 Monochrome review: “ The platinum case measures 40mm (note that the watch is also available in 42mm. The only thing that changes is the size of the bezel and of the lugs, both thicker. The dial remains the same diameter) and 10mm height.”

F.P. Journe: Agree with the others

Horological Meandering: Both great choices

I have owned both brands, but only have Zodiacs at the moment. I actually have too many, but I enjoy the colorful, casual vibe. They are great for the warmer weather and outside activities versus my other dressier watches. I am also surprised at the comments, such as nice watch, that they garner. My

Horological Meandering: Enjoyed the review

I really like the look, and agree with the similarities between the Zenith and Patek. The fume dial looks great and the wire lugs should make it wear smaller than Moser’s other 42mm models. The only negative is the automatic movement. It really doesn’t make sense Moser would opt for that when they h

F.P. Journe: How many turns

Can you ballpark the number of turns to be fully wound? I assume it may take a fair amount more than the datograph given the 80 hour power reserve. Thanks.
