FP Journe Line Sport Chronograph - 44mm
Hope you are a staying safe during these tough times!
Planning to buy the below at retail because the watch has really grown on me. Is it me being a huge Journe fan or is it actually a nice watch? Would really appreciate your thoughts!20200922_152147.jpg |

![]() It’s an absolutely wonderful watch. Perfect combination of traditional / heritage watch making from the master FP Journe, yet the feel, looks and experience of what I think is THE most comfortable sports watch out there (beating out Nautilus/Aquanaut/Jumbo/Octo Finissimo). Good luck with the pursuit! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It’s an awesome watch! I understand your need for a little feedback on such an important purchase, but for a purchase such as this you should really have no doubt. It is a very personal decision. A watch is a reflection of your personal sense of style and it should bring you joy to wear it. Nobody else can decide such things for you. Best of luck!

+1 great comment. The sports line have not been my favourite but growing on me slowly. It is a big statement piece and agree that you have to be 200% certain. Good luck and keep us posted. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

get it!
If you can....
as said, it wears like 42 due to the lugs. The lightness of it also helps with the aluminium movement in the titanium version. Be aware that they are now being released without the rubber inserts in the bracelet, the 9pm bumper and rubber crown. Personally I prefer this and had asked for it over a year ago when I became aware that the changes were being made. I picked up my new one from the boutique here in HK two weeks ago. I shall try and post some pics. |

Hmmmm.... the case to bracelet ratio just seems off. It just makes the watch face seem bulbous and odd.
That said, who am I to question Journe? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |
