This variant of the Élégante comes in a titanium flat tortue case treated with Titalyt–an alloy of titanium that went through a special process of electro-plasma oxidation, making the metal highly resistant to corrosion. Like its gem-set counterparts, it is powered by the caliber 1210, a quartz movement with a mechanical rotor and a larger case profile of 48mm.
Named after its founder, François-Paul Journe, Swiss high-end manufacture F.P. Journe’s has elevated itself into one of the most well-respected brands in the industry since its founding in 1999, having won several awards including the L'Aiguille d'Or at the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Geneve. With a strictly limited production of 850 to 900 watches per year, F.P. Journe’s timepieces are instant collector’s items. Some of their notable timepieces include the Chronometre a Resonance and the T-30 wristwatch, designed as a tribute to F.P. Journe’s first tourbillon watch from 1983.
