F.P. Journe Classique Tourbillon Souverain Platinum 42 MM - Brown Leather Strap - Brown Dial - Tourbillon Souverain

42 mm, Platinum case. A new Tourbillon Souverain to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Tourbillon Souverain. The innovative and revolutionary horological creator François-Paul Journe has inspired a generation of contemporary watchmakers with the originality of his creations, his quest for precision, his timeless and immediately recognizable style, and his respect for horological ethics and traditions. Fascinated by the tourbillon since his youth, François-Paul Journe began to make his first watch when he was 20 - entirely by hand. It was a tourbillon pocket watch. In 1991, he created his first tourbillon wristwatch, selling the very small number of examples to a handful of knowledgeable collectors. In 1999, he launched the first Tourbillon Souverain with Remontoir d’Égalité in wristwatch form. It was sold by subscription and was much sought after by collectors who rivaled with each other to get on the shortlist of 20 examples.
