Octa Automatique Réserve
The Octa Automatique Réserve model, as with all F.P. Journe timepieces, combines aesthetic beauty with high precision. The dial features Journe's patented large date display, power reserve and bears F.P. Journe’s signature and the Latin inscription ‘Invenit et Fecit’ (invented and made). The 18K rose gold Journe caliber 1300.3 automatic movement has an off-centre 22 carat gold rotor. It was the first automatic movement to provide 120 hours of power reserve.
The name ‘Octa’ was given as a prefix to all F.P. Journe’s automatic watches because in Latin it means ‘eight’ and the figure ‘8’ on its side signifies the concept of limitlessness or infinity.
