F.P. Journe

Produced in 2015, the present watch is indeed one of the most important pieces to be featured in the Octa Automatique collection. To the 50th anniversary of the diplomatic relations between France and China, F.P. Journe had the privilege to act as the official watchmaker in releasing a commemorative timepiece for this occasion. From the elegant blue dial to the noble platinum case, from the asymmetric layout to the red Chinese logo, from the rhodium-plated hands to the blue and gold numerals, each and every corner of the watch is manufactured with utmost dedication, and the attention to detail of its craftsmanship cannot be overstated. Housing the calibre 1300.3, forged pink gold in modern F.P. Journe fashion, the movement itself took three years of active research and development to achieve the astounding levels of stability and precision that François-Paul Journe himself is looking for. Strengthening the bonds of two countries, the Octa Automatique Lune France-China 50 offers incredible sentimental value as an important ambassador.
