F.P. Journe Historical Anniversary Tourbillon Watch Celebrates His Status As A Watchmaker
As we mentioned in our First Grail post earlier this week, F.P. Journe is celebrating a 30th anniversary, one that marks the occasion of his first watch (a pocket watch) having been completed. While 1983 is the starting point for the celebration, the journey to this first watch actually started five years earlier. The result is a new limited edition wristwatch called the Historical Anniversary Tourbillon timepiece.Working in a shop owned by his uncle, Journe worked nights and weekends to create his first masterpiece. And this wasn't just some simple three-hander. No, he had a love for antique tourbillons - so he decided to make his own. These days, that particular complication shows up all over the place. Thirty years ago, though, it was a much rarer beast - especially one that was made by hand.Needless to say, that one-of-a-kind pocket watch was the first signed F.P. Journe, and kicked off the journey that brought us the eponymous watch company in 1991. To mark the occasion of thirty
Deciding on next acquisition....
We ALL know how much FUN the hunt is for the next piece to add to the collection...here is my predicament, if you will. I think I have pretty much decided that I REALLY want a ROC to go along with my DIVER...Now...here's the thing. After researching, looking around I'm thinking I want to wait for AP to release the in house chrono movement. Only thing about that is...who knows when that'll be...Face it...I think we all know that when on the hunt for the new watch...you can only hold out so long!Just thought I'd see what everyone's thoughts were.Cheers all

Look what I got!
What if your legit purchase gets reported stolen?
I've been considering a SubC 116610LN for some time -- just looking for the right life excuse to buy it.I was set on buying from one of our trusted forum private sellers, but what if a watch they sell with complete box and papers was stolen in its previous life, unbeknownst to the seller? I do NOT suspect any trusted seller here would knowingly accept a stolen watch. But, what if a watch with full kit was stolen during a home burglary and made it's way to a trusted seller after changing hands a few times?Obviously, this is an unlikely scenario. I personally believe that a full kit private sale is the only way to go for buying private, and greatly reduces the risk of a stolen watch.Just wondering if this has ever occurred, and what legal recourse I'd have in getting my watch back if Rolex were to seize it during a service 10 years down the road.Private party pricing is very attractive at around $8000, compared to the $8550 + tax ($9200 out the door) here in Arizona.Just thinking out lou
Got a DJ41....guess I was wrong.
My first Rolex....love it...DJ41 with Jubilee and fluted bezel....Rhodium (stunning)...I convinced myself I could wear it anywhere, at anytime before I bought it.Now I know it is really shiny but that may change over the years, but as of now, I see I was wrong in thinking I could wear it at all times and it not look or feel too dressy. So I am now thinking I need a Sub for when I am unshaven and in VERY casual clothes....I know they are $7,500 to $9,500 for a new or slightly used one. I sometimes see a $5,500 used one on this and other watch forums, but I don't quite know enough to know if I should steer clear of anything less than say, $7,500.FYI, I stayed away from Sub's to begin with, due to my many Seiko's that I thought would serve the same purpose and of course still do, but I really like how I feel when I wear a Rolex and want to have that feeling, even when I am uber casual. So, any advice on how to find a $5K or less quality Sub (meaning no service needed to feel comfortable
