圖錄文章
With the Octa Zodiaque, F.P. Journe created an incredibly inventive method of displaying the date and the month, along with zodiac signs that are printed on a disc that jumps one increment at each 24 hour period.

The Octa Zodiaque was made between 2003 and 2005 in a limited edition of only 150 pieces in platinum. It was also F.P. Journe’s first gentleman’s wristwatch to feature central hands. Interestingly the watch is one of the extremely rare models to feature a 40mm case with a brass movement (instead of pink gold movement).

As with all Journe timepieces, the complexity of the movement is offset by the ease of use as all functions are set via the crown.

Unlike many of Journe’s limited edition pieces, the Octa Zodiaque never existed in a different, non-limited version, which underlies the ultimate rarity of this timepiece.

Offered in attractive overall condition, the present example from circa 2005 numbered 86 is complete with its full set of accessories.

F.P. Journe

Swiss | 1999
Founded by watchmaker François-Paul Journe in 1999, the F.P. Journe brand is relatively young, but already is as highly regarded by collectors as many distinguished manufacturers with centuries-old heritage. In the minds of the world's savviest collectors, Journe is producing some of the finest wristwatches the market has ever seen. Mastering his craft from restoring historical timepieces, he was the first to create a wristwatch incorporating two escapements that benefit from the phenomenon of resonance — the Chronomètre à Résonance.

Key models include the Résonance, tourbillon wristwatches incorporating a remontoir and the limited edition Vagabondage series. Especially sought-after are his earliest "souscription" watches, made in 1999.
