    It is needless to say that Journe created only very few limited editions with extremely little room on customisation over the years. The boutique editions that have sprinkled in the brand’s lineage are nothing short of legendary amongst passionate circle of collectors.
    Hailing from the coveted and extremely well-received F. P. Journe Chronomètre Bleu series, the BYBLOS is an entire new breed of its own.

    While it essentially features the same caliber and complication as the regular model, the BYBLOS is a limited edition of 99 pieces launched in 2014 to commemorate the firm’s 10th opening of their boutique in Beirut. This unique model was named after the city of Byblos, located on the Lebanese coast a few kilometres North of Beirut. Byblos was the cradle of Euro-Mediterranean civilisation, being the world’s oldest Phoenician port and one of the most important commercial and cultural platforms of the region.

    Cased in the famed gun metal shade of Tantalum, the timepiece is sized at 39mm dimaeter. Beautifully Mediterranean blue, for the first time, F.P.Journe has used a cut-out hour circle that reveals the exceptional, beautiful, 18k rose-gold mechanical movement adorned with guilloche decoration. A notable detail in the F. P. Journe logo at 12 o'clock in which the «J» is inscribed in the Phoenician alphabet representing the letter «Yodh». Pronounced «J», it symbolizes the hand, thus emphasizing the importance of handcrafting in the F.P. Journe creations. Elegantly paired with an ivory coloured hands and Arabic numerals gracing over the skeletonized dial, it is an absolute delight to see the calibre 1304 in action.

    The present example F.P. Journe Chronomètre Bleu BYBLOS from circa 2020 is numbered 71 from the series. Fresh-to-the-market and offered in “like-new” overall condition, it is further complete with its full set of accessories. A perfect opportunity for collectors to acquire a highly sought-after and rare model in the market.

    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.
