Journe Octa Automatique Réserve "Havana" was introduced in 2016, together with the Octa Automatique Lune "Havana", admired for their unique tobacco brown dials dubbed “Havana”. The distinctive brown hue of the dial is a result of mixing ruthenium with gold which creates a shift in color and saturation under different lighting conditions. It was developed by Journe’s own dial maker, Les Cadraniers de Genève, and underwent rigorous adjustments to perfect the formula for the combination of gold and ruthenium. The dial on the present Octa Automatique Réserve "Havana" is completed with a Clous de Paris hobnail guilloché on the center, matching the soft cream-coloured hands, numerals, and date wheel, perfectly accentuating the alluring warm hues of the Cuban brown that invokes a hot Havana night. Presented in excellent overall condition and accompanied by complete set of accessories, the rare opportunity to obtain the present timepiece will surely appeal to the ever-growing enthusiast and collectors of F.P. Journe.
