FP Journe Centigraphe Incoming

Loved the salmon dial on rose gold as soon as I saw it, but it took me awhile to find one as they are discontinued now. I was fortunate to find one that had been purchased the last day of December last year, by a collector who actulally never took possession of the watch from the AD. He sold it back to them before they shipped it, and put the money against another FP Journe. Lucky day for me. Brand new watch but at secondary pricing! I am deeply impressed with this watch. Really really happy to find it and add it to the collection.

Huge congratulations Mark, that is a very special watch indeed.

Less than 20 in the world of that configuration if I'm correct? So an amazing find.

I know that you love brown and salmon dials; well now you have FPJs in both those colours!

Thanks buddy! Yep I’m a sucker for brown and salmon dials. Nailed it with FPJ. And thanks to everyone else as well. FPJ are really special watches.

Very nice. The Centigraphe took a long time to appeal to me, but I’m fully invested now!

Excellent advice. I have a free strap of my choosing to pick still, but could not decide before they shipped the watch. Has an olive on there now that the guy who purchased it ordered it with. Doesn't look bad at all, but I was thinking I could do better. Grey is a good suggestion. Thanks.

If anyone else has good suggestions I am open!

Congrats on the watch. Something I am seriously looking at getting.
As for straps. Go bright red or blue. Grey is much too conservative for that watch.

Plenty of god pics on IG to give ideas.
