Sell it with usAs the most coveted premium quartz watch on the market, the FP Journe Elegante proves that high-level horology isn’t confined to the world of mechanical movements. The case of this reference is made from titanium, and when combined with its 40mm tonneau-shaped case, provides a supremely wearable and ergonomic fit.
A screw-down crown on the side makes this the only FP-Journe recommended for swimming. The dial features a solid disk of Super-LumiNova, making the entire face highly legible in all lighting conditions. A small cut-out at 4:30 displays an oscillating weight, which forms part of the high-grade calibre 1210 quartz movement. On the watch’s underside, the hand-crafted red gold battery cover with Côtes de Genève provides a hint that this is no ordinary calibre.
While it’s supremely accurate, what really sets it apart is the ability to cleverly transition to a sleep mode when not worn - significantly prolonging the battery life. Attached to the case and giving the watch a decidedly sporty feel is a blue rubber strap with a signed F.P. Journe deployant clasp.
This 2020 example shows light signs of wear on the case and clasp, and its condition is within the bounds specified by the seller’s Grade A rating. Included in the sale are the box and guarantee.
