Introducing The F.P. Journe Nouvelle Octa Lune
No trip to Geneva is complete without a pit stop at the F.P Journe Manufacture, located at the heart of the city. Therefore, Haute Time paid a visit to the independent watchmaker, and caught a glimpse of the Nouvelle Octa Lune collection.

Last year F.P. Journe launched his first gold dials through the Octa collection. This year, he has decided to update the Octa Lune – the moon phase model from the Octa collection – with a new golden robe, and a slightly bigger dial than the previous Octa Lune (40 or 42 mm versus the 38 mm of the original).

The gold case and matching red gold dial also add a touch of class.
