Notes

The F.P. JOURNE Chronomètre Souverain Nacré in platinum embodies horological perfection through itsmesmerizing blue mother-of-pearl hour ring encircling a whitened guilloché silver center, with each piece exhibiting unique, unrepeatable natural patterns. Available exclusively through F.P. Journe boutiques in extremely limited quantities, its production requires painstaking craftsmanship that few artisans can master.

The presented beautiful example was purchased new in 2012 at the Hong Kong F.P. Journe boutique and has been carefully kept by the owner for more than 10 years. It remains in amazing condition overall, with all hallmarksand engravings on the caseback remaining crisp and deep.
