Francois Paul Journe launched the Chronomètre Bleu in 2011. One of F.P. Journe’s most successful models to date, this timepiece bears the brand’s iconic technical and stylistic cues. In addition to the exclusive use of a polished tantalum case and to the fitting of an impressive twin-barrel 18ct gold movement, the Chronomètre Bleu displays a striking lacquered dial, decorated with cream Arabic numerals. This increasingly sought-after timepiece, shot here against John Hoyland’s ‘Freedom Bird’, will be offered in our London Watches sale with an estimate of £10,000-15,000 on April 16th. #SothebysWatches #instawatch #watch #johnhoyland #francoispauljourne #fpjourne #watchcollector #watchesofinstagram #luxurywatch #auction #watchoftheday #wristwatch
