While we are unaware of the total production numbers for the F.P. Journe Centigraphe Souverain, it is very likely that François-Paul Journe didn’t create more than a few hundred of one of his most special watches. Due to its rarity and limited production numbers we are granting it the status of a rare bird here at WCL. Revered as one of the greatest watchmakers of the 21st century along with names like Philippe Dufour, Kari Voutilainen and Stephen Forsey, François-Paul Journe started designing his vision of contemporary watchmaking back in 1999.
