F.P.Journe Octa Calendrier

F.P. Journe Octa Calendrier housed in a 40 mm platinum case, this distinguished timepiece features a grey ruthenium-coated dial, giving it a unique, dark metallic finish that sets it apart from the more common silver-dial versions. The dial layout is unmistakably Journe: off-centered time display with heat-blued steel hands and small seconds on the right, while the left side showcases a large retrograde date arc and windows for the day and month. This elegant asymmetry enhances both legibility and visual intrigue. Powering the watch is F.P. Journe’s in-house calibre 1300.2, an automatic movement crafted from solid 18k gold and coated in ruthenium for this limited series. It offers an impressive 120-hour (5-day) power reserve via a unidirectional 22k gold rotor. The finishing is exemplary, visible through the sapphire caseback, with the signature hand-finishing and fine decoration expected of Journe's atelier. Paired with a black alligator strap and platinum tang buckle, the Octa Calendrier ruthenium edition blends haute horology, practical calendar functionality, and minimalist elegance.
