Lot Essay

With F.P. Journe Certificate of Authenticity and Warranty card dated 3 April 2002, instruction manual, original fitted wooden presentation box and outer packaging.

The Chronometre a Resonance model was launched in 2000. It is one of the exceedingly rare wristwatches in the world based on resonance, a natural physical phenomenon. The two balances wheels are synchronized by means of the resonance effect and naturally beat alternately. The negative effects of wrist and body movements are hence considerably reduced.
