A monumental horological feat, the Élégante design was first developed exclusively for women. As Francois Paul-Journe said: "I created this watch because for 20 years, women have been asking me to design a watch for them; a watch that was different and comfortable to wear, and that suited their needs and desires. I therefore created this long-lasting watch especially for them."

Brilliant in its aesthetics and mechanism, the Élégante has garnered the attention of many with soaring demand and long waiting lists in recent times. Equipped with a proprietary electro-mechanical movement that features a motion detector visible on the dial through an aperture 4:30, the watch can conserve its energy by stopping the hands and motors while keeping time in the back of its mind. Once the watch is moved again, it awakens and miraculously readjusts to the current time by taking the shortest path—either clockwise or counterclockwise. Furthermore, the luminous dial provides the ability for the wearer to view the entire dial at night with ultimate legibility.

With a subtle row of diamonds on each side of the bezel, the present Élégante in polished titanium measuring 40mm in diameter is understated in its luxury, in new, unworn condition, and offered complete with guarantee and presentation box.
