Esteemed Mechanical Watchmaker F.P. Journe On Making A Quartz Movement
Although it?was as early as?January 2014 that we debuted the F.P. Journe ��l��gante (hands-on here), it is only now that the first quartz movement equipped wristwatch from F.P. Journe �C one of the?undisputed greats?among today's independent master watchmakers �C finds its way to the U.S. market. It was on this occasion that, in the F.P. Journe boutique on Sunset Boulevard in Beverly Hills, we sat down with Francois-Paul Journe for what turned out to be an hour-long conversation?about the finer details of the F.P. Journe ��l��gante and the movement inside of it.There were many different questions that we had?prepared prior to the conversation: how one of the most?respected traditional watchmakers of our age ended up making a quartz movement; how involved he had been in the process;?what his approach was to what is generally?accepted to be a "soulless" alternative to mechanical watches with a beating heart; and, last but not least, what makes this quartz movement special?What stood out to me?

Do the bracelets scratch easily?
Hi guys! Just purchased a new royal oak in rose gold with a rose gold bracelet and I am totally infatuated and beyond in love with it. Just wondering if it scratches easily as this is my first AP. Cheers!

Nice Watch... my Boss has one....
I was up at the mall buying car seats for the baby on Friday. Passing by Kay's, my wife wanted her rings cleaned, so we stopped in. They are in the cleaner, and she is looking around So she sits down and the salesman is showing her some really nice setting and band upgrades, and he happens to glance and notice my Speedy Pro. Nice Watch! My Boss Has one. The guy was, Im guessing, in his early to mid 40's.What can I say, being 25, I felt pretty G at that moment
