It has taken eight years to design the electromagnetic movement for F.P. Journe’s first ever ladies watch. The result is a lesson in design and technology! On the mother-of-pearl and luminescent dial there’s a mechanical motion detector at 5.30 which recognises when the watch is no longer being worn; the watch goes on standby after thirty minutes and automatically sets itself to the right time when it is back on the wrist. This unique technology is housed in the titanium Tortue case (34x35mm) with a rubber partition (available in 7 colours) and finished off with a diamond paved bezel. Large Arabic numerals and a slim minute track lie in the centre beneath blue-tone hands whilst the small seconds stands at 6 o’ clock on the dial. Price: 15’120 CHF
