To commemorate the 5th anniversary of the FP Journe Tokyo Boutique, the atelier launched the Tokyo Anniversaire series, five models including the present Octa Perpétuelle. Limited to a 99-piece production, not only the Octa Perpétuelle the singular new complication of the series, it is also the only collection it appears in, making this timepiece particularly rare.
The very first perpetual calendar made by F.P. Journe, this timepiece also features a retrograde date function with the leap year indicated in a sub-aperture. A quick-set function allows the wearer to easily adjust the months annually and then lock it preventing any accidental activation or change.
Limited to only 99 pieces, this watch is made special not only due to the exclusivity and sought-after dial colour, but also because it is the first ever F.P. Journe perpetual calendar. This watch is perfect for any collector looking to add a rare yet very wearable complicated piece by the now famed independent.
