The revolutionary electromechanical movement of the Elegante, its very long battery life and its exceptional comfort of use is now available in 48 mm.
FP Journe timepieces possess a strong aesthetic identity. They reflect a new vision of contemporary watchmaking. Their designer, a master watchmaker above all, wanted watches that were simple, intimate, yet spectacular.
The revolutionary electromechanical movement of the elegant watch with a very long battery life of 8 to 10 years – with sleep mode after 30 minutes of motionlessness and automatic reset when the watch is moved again – is now available in 48 mm Titanium. Featuring 418 brilliant-cut diamonds totaling 1,06 carats, a luminescent dial and a navy blue rubber strap.
The elegant watch's luminescent dial offers perfect readability, day and night. The ergonomic shape of the navy blue rubber strap fits perfectly on any wrist. It is completed with a steel and titanium folding clasp.
The sleek aesthetic of the Tortue Plate case, a registered design by the manufacturer, loses none of its elegance and asserts an urban and contemporary style. It is enlarged to delight large wrists or those who wear them "oversized".
Eight years of research led FP Journe to develop this innovative electromechanical watchmaking concept. Caliber 1210 offers the comfort of use and performance of an electromechanical watch that combines reliability and precision. The Elegante currently offers the only electromechanical movement designed and manufactured for luxury, with a true vision of luxury.
Adapted to our rhythm of life, the faithful Elégante FP Journe goes into standby mode after 30 minutes of immobility, the mechanical movement detector visible at 4:30 is at rest. During this standby mode, the microprocessor continues to count the time; the mechanical parts – cogs, rotors and hands – stop moving. Thus, the energy saving allows a very long autonomy ranging from 8 to 10 years in daily use, and up to 18 years in standby mode. The precise time is reset instantly by the shortest route in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction as soon as the watch is started.
The Elegante is an FP Journe—all the mechanical parts of its movement are crafted in the manufacturer's Geneva workshops according to the highest standards of fine watchmaking. The electronics, produced to exacting standards by a Swiss engineer, are made of a microprocessor developed specifically for the 1210 caliber.
Its luminescent dial allows for optimal readability in the dark and at night, the hands indicate the hours like Chinese shadows.
The midnight blue natural rubber strap equipped with a steel and titanium folding clasp retains its ergonomic shape to perfectly fit the curves of the wrist.
L'Elégante is available in all 10 FP Journe boutiques, all 9 spaces, and from authorized FP Journe retailers.
