Specialist note
Made for only one year, 2019, and then retired, this very special edition of F.P. Journe's Chronometre à Resonance was produced in celebration of the iconic model’s 20th anniversary. Only available as standard in either rose gold or platinum with 40 mm. cases with correspondingly coloured dials. Furthermore, the subdials indications are printed in blue.
In true F.P. Journe style, the 2019 Resonance was not merely redesigned aesthetically with a return to the dial symmetry of earlier series, but also presented new technical challenges. The movement of the 2019 Resonance of course features the pair of balance wheels beating in resonance with one another and powering the twin time displays. For this version however, the dial display on the left side of the watch is calibrated for 24-hours. The idea being that the 24-hours on the left and the classic 12-hours on the right makes it far easier to distinguish between home time and travel time.
