About the brand

Let us share with you the captivating tale of F.P. Journe, a brand that exudes excellence and luxury in the world of horology. The journey of François-Paul Journe, the founder, began long before he established his own watch company in 1999. Born in the enchanting port city of Marseille, France in 1957, his passion for watchmaking was ignited in the cradle of France.

At the tender age of 14, he enrolled in a technical college and honed his skills. Years of hard work and dedication culminated in his graduation from the Paris watchmaking school in 1976. A mere two years later, Journe began working on his first tourbillon pocket watch, inspired by a George Daniels pocket watch that he had glimpsed on a client at his uncle's watchmaking studio. The master watchmaker would later be mentored by none other than the legendary George Daniels, the mastermind behind the Co-Axial Escapement.

At the age of 22, Journe was commissioned by Parisian ateliers P-G Brun to design a planetarium mechanism for Asprey in London. He worked tirelessly for seven years, and in 1983, he completed his first tourbillon pocket watch. He created the watch in his free time when he wasn't busy working for his uncle. François-Paul meticulously crafted every component of the watch, including the gold and silver case.

In 1985, Journe established his workshop where he created bespoke watches for collectors. A year later, F.P. Journe's first automatic chronometer pocket watch was born. This horological masterpiece housed a fusée chain and a five-second remontoire, along with a retrograde perpetual calendar and equation of time. In 1987, he crafted a planetary pocket watch that was commissioned by a collector.

Journe's skills and passion for watchmaking earned him several prestigious awards over the years. He received recognition from the Fondation Marcel Bleustein-Blanchet pour la Vocation, the Watchmakers Convention in Madrid, the Institut l'Homme et le Temps' Gaia Award for the Best Watchmaker, and the Prix Spécial du Jury.

In 1989, F.P. Journe established a movement manufacturer in Switzerland, where they eventually settled in Geneva. In 1991, Journe crafted his first wristwatch, creating the entire movement out of 18k gold. Just a few years later, in 1996, he founded TIM SA, a manufacturer dedicated to developing exclusive calibers.

The Tourbillon Souverain was launched in 1999, along with the newly established Montres Journe SA. The watch was inscribed with the words "F.P. Journe – Invenit et Fecit," which translate to "invented and made," signifying that it was an original conception crafted by only the best of craftsmen.

F.P. Journe continued to grow, and by 2000, the manufacturer had 50 employees producing 3-4 watches per day. In 2001, Journe developed the Octa calibre, his first mechanical movement that was self-winding. He would also work on the Opus One collection for Harry Winston.

Journe's success continued, and in 2003, he opened his first boutique in the Omotesando district of Tokyo, a vibrant hub for culture and the arts. This was followed by a Hong Kong boutique in 2006 and the first European boutique in Geneva in 2007. Today, F.P. Journe has boutiques around the world, including in the United States, showcasing Journe's captivating timepieces.

In 2018, Chanel acquired a minority stake in F.P. Journe, further solidifying the brand's place in the luxury watch industry. Journe's legacy has also inspired other up-and-coming independent watchmakers, including Rexhep Rexhepi, who worked for F.P. Journe before founding his own independent brand, Akrivia.

As a watch expert, I am in awe of Journe's dedication and commitment to creating truly exceptional watches that stand the test of time. His innovative designs and impeccable craftsmanship make F.P. Journe a true icon in the world of luxury watches.

About the watch

The F.P. Journe Chronomètre Souverain Boutique Edition 40 mm stands as a masterful blend of precision engineering and refined aesthetics—an absolute treasure for elegant watch collectors. Released in limited numbers exclusively through F.P. Journe boutiques, its appeal lies not only in its technical pedigree but also in its rarity.

Encased in luxurious 18k rose gold, the 40 mm frame houses a striking black guilloché dial, distinguished by its graceful symmetry. The dial showcases a small seconds subdial at 7:30 and a power-reserve indicator at 3 o’clock—both hallmark features of the Souverain line. These elements are complemented by slender, elegant hands and a minimalist aesthetic that speaks of understated class.

Within the case beats the celebrated Calibre 1304, a hand-wound movement featuring twin mainspring barrels that deliver a robust 56-hour power reserve. The movement is finished with the meticulous attention to detail that F.P. Journe is known for: beveled edges, polished screws, Geneva stripes, and a classical chronometer-style layout—all presented through a transparent caseback.

What elevates this watch beyond its exceptional craftsmanship is its exclusivity. As a Boutique Edition now discontinued, it carries a legacy of selectiveness—never mass-produced and always difficult to source. This scarcity has made it a magnet for collectors, fueling demand and elevating its status in the secondary market.

In essence, the Chronomètre Souverain Boutique Edition is more than a functional accessory—it’s a statement of independent watchmaking excellence. Owning a complete set of this watch means possessing a rare chapter of F.P. Journe’s history: a refined timepiece that combines timeless elegance, technical sophistication, and boutique-only exclusivity.
