Quantième Perpétuel from F.P. Journe

This just in from F.P. Journe -

QUANTIÈME PERPÉTUEL F.P.JOURNE

Utmost readability and simplified use for the new F.P.Journe Perpetual Calendar with instantaneous jump We are very happy to introduce the latest F.P.Journe creation presented last week during the Geneva watch fair.

The new F.P.Journe Invenit et Fecit Quantième Perpétuel with instantaneous jump, ninth creation within the Octa line presents a distinctive aesthetic compared to all existing perpetual calendars in offering perfect readability through an uncluttered dial with large apertures.  Unlike perpetual calendars that are often difficult to adjust, the F.P.Journe Quantième Perpétuel is very easy to use.  Corrections are made using the three-position crown, except for the rapid correction of months, which is carried out by a protected and hidden corrector lever beneath the lug at 1 o’clock, thus facilitating the adjustment over four years without any specific tool.

The automatic winding movement of the Quantième Perpétuel is manufactured in 18K rose Gold, like that of all F.P.Journe precision chronometers.  It also features the exclusive off-centre F.P.Journe rotor in 22K red Gold that offers optimal winding of the watch for an effective power reserve for over 120 effective hours.  The Quantième Perpétuel is available in Platinum or in 18K red Gold, in 40 or 42 mm diameter, with red or white Gold dial fixed by a steel circle with a silver chapter ring.
