F.P. Journe Chronomètre à Résonance No. 048-05RN — Platinum, Full Set, Taiwan Warranty Card Dated 07/09/2007

Sale price$625,000.00

A refined early Chronomètre à Résonance in platinum, preserved in the sought-after ruthenium-dial configuration and powered by the 18k rose-gold calibre 1499.2. Offered as a full set with original presentation box and warranty card stamped by the Taiwan retailer and dated 07/09/2007.

Among the most intellectually compelling creations in modern independent watchmaking, the F.P. Journe Chronomètre à Résonance stands apart for transforming a centuries-old horological principle into a practical wristwatch. By placing two balances in close proximity, François-Paul Journe created a system in which each oscillator stabilises the other, elevating chronometric performance through resonance while giving the watch its unmistakable twin-register display.

This example, numbered No. 048-05RN, is housed in platinum and features the highly attractive grey ruthenium-toned dial with symmetrical whitened guilloché silver sub-dials, blued steel hands and the signature power-reserve display at 12 o’clock. The reverse reveals the beautifully executed 18k rose-gold calibre 1499.2, a manual-wind movement with 36 jewels, representing the early gold-movement era of the Résonance.

Equally important is the watch’s presentation. It is offered as a full set, accompanied by its original presentation box and warranty card dated 07/09/2007, stamped by DRAING ENTERPRISE CO. LTD., Taipei, Taiwan. For the collector, this is a particularly appealing combination: the visual poetry of the early ruthenium aesthetic, the warmth and significance of the rose-gold movement period, and the reassurance of complete accompanying accessories.

Produced within the celebrated Ruthenium Collection family, whose Chronomètre à Résonance examples were officially numbered from 1 to 99, this watch occupies a rare and desirable place in the evolution of F.P. Journe’s most emblematic complication. Elegant, cerebral and unmistakably Journe, it is a watch that speaks as much to connoisseurship as it does to horological innovation.
