“All the spices that make a good meal” was François-Paul Journe’s formula when it came to designing the F.P.Journe Chronomètre Optimum. . Seen through the caseback are the four key elements that combine together to create one of François-Paul’s most performant timepieces. . First, the use of double barrels arranged in parallel, providing a highly stable source of energy that inflicts less pressure and friction on the main gear. . Second, the remontoir d’égalité which is a constant force mechanism that controls the flow of energy to the escapement so that it remains constant throughout the watch’s autonomy. . Third, a unique bi-axial escapement developed by François-Paul Journe in order to eliminate the needs of any volatile lubricants, and yet adapted to be self-starting. . Finally, for an overall better equilibrium, the use of a Phillips curve hairspring. . All together, these components function to provide up to 50 hours of energy without any loss in amplitude. . #fpjourne #fpjourneofficial #chronometreoptimum #escapement #horology #watches #watchmaking
