For its fifth appearance at Only Watch, F.P.Journe presents a unique model, the Chronomètre Furtif Bleu, crafted solely for this event.
This is the first-ever watch to be adorned with a full Tantalum case and bracelet, specially designed for Only Watch, powered by an 18K rose Gold mechanism, a signature hallmark feature of the Manufacture.
The Chronomètre Furtif's name is inspired by its elusive time-reading feature: unless directly facing the wearer, the blue enamel dial only displays the frosted numbers under certain light reflections.
Inside this exquisite piece ticks a newly developed hand-wound movement, Calibre 1522, with direct central seconds - a premiere for F.P.Journe.
Notably, this watch includes a moon phase and power reserve indicator embedded in the movement, only visible through the sapphire caseback. This makes it a truly personal timepiece, with functions known exclusively to its owner, a theme carried over from the elusive nature of the dial.

The Chronomètre Furtif Bleu will be auctioned off for charity at Only Watch’s 10th edition, this coming November 5th, in Geneva.
All proceeds will be donated to fund research on Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
