François-Paul Journe occupies an unparalleled position as the preeminent independent watchmaker of the modern era, his eponymous manufacture producing fewer than 900 pieces annually with every component made in-house in Geneva. Named after the Greek myth of Tantalus, the material's perfect corrosion resistance, exceptional hardness, and biocompatibility have made this reference a cult favorite within the rarefied world of independent collecting.
This 2017 example is presented in pre-owned (very good) condition and accompanied by its original box and original papers.
