Lot Essay
The wonderful rich green dial of this Chronomètre Souverain immediately marks it out as something rather special. Indeed, this stunning platinum timepiece is one of only 99 examples to have been produced in 2020 to celebrate the opening of F.P. Journe’s first Dubai boutique on 30th October 2019. In partnership with Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons, it was Journe’s 10th boutique worldwide, following openings in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Geneva, Paris, New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Beirut and Kiev.
The carefully considered design of this special Dubai Edition Chronomètre Souverain is striking not only for its stunning colour combination of the 40 mm. platinum case and green dial with white gold applied numerals and rhodium-plated hands, it is also notable in that this limited edition does not feature the power-reserve sector at 3 o’clock found on the standard Chronomètre Souverain model. The green dial colour was especially chosen by François-Paul Journe for its symbolism of fortune and fertility in the Middle East. The edition was instantly sold out upon launch and due to its unique beauty and individual design it has become one of the most desirable of all Chronomètre Souverain’s.
Presented in fantastic condition, the present watch, no. 32 of the edition, is sold with the full set of accessories. It offers international collectors and F.P. Journe devotees the dream opportunity to obtain an example of this highly elusive timepiece.
