The F.P. Journe Chronomètre à Résonance RQ in platinum stands at the pinnacle of independent watchmaking. It is powered by the Calibre 1520—its most advanced movement to date. The 40 mm platinum case houses a silvery-whitened guilloché dial with two distinct time displays and dual small seconds, underpinned by a single mainspring barrel that intelligently powers two escapements via a differential. Each gear train incorporates its own remontoir d’égalité, ensuring constant force and chronometric precision—an unmatched technical achievement in the wristwatch realm.

Journe Chronomètre à Résonance “RQ” (Calibre 1520) stands as the most advanced chapter in a storied collection, housed in a 40mm polished platinum case with a slender 10.8mm profile. Its silver dial features two silk-guilloché displays—one 12-hour and one 24-hour—each with skeletonized small-seconds subdials, arranged symmetrically for exceptional clarity. A power-reserve scale arcs between the dials, adding intuitive functionality to the refined aesthetic. Underpinning the watch’s dual-time capability is Calibre 1520, an in-house manual movement that broke new ground in Journe’s history. It channels energy from a single mainspring barrel into two gear trains via a central differential, each equipped with a one-second remontoir d’égalité—ensuring constant force delivery and amplified resonance for unparalleled precision. Presented on an alligator strap with a platinum buckle, the “RQ” delivers not only technical excellence but also a rare aesthetic balance. The open differential bridge—visible on the dial—nods to its mechanical innovation, while the limited run and position as the most technically evolved Resonance makes it a compelling piece for discerning collectors seeking both horological ingenuity and artisanal heritage.
