Journe released the Centigraphe Souverain in 2007 and immediately became the talk of the town. Technically brilliant and innovatively sound, the introduction of the Centigraphe further propelled Journe’s status as an important elite of horology. Powered by the firm’s in-house cal. 1506 composed of 18K gold, the highly sophisticated movement enables the dial to feature an unconventional chronograph with 100th of a second register, 20-second register and a 10-minute register, formulating the distinct appeal of the Centigraphe Souverain. Furthermore, another creative approach is implemented to replace the traditional chronographic pushers by activating and deactivating the chronograph with three registers activated at the same time. Once activated, the 100th of a second register is certainly a crowd-pleaser allowing the wearer to witness the high-speed movement of the chronographic hand. To achieve such a feature without interrupting the timekeeping system, a mechanism within isolates the chronograph from its timekeeping system, meaning that the amplitude would not be affected when the chronograph is activated. A marvel to admire as one activates the chronograph function, the present example of the F.P. Journe Centigraphe Souverain in platinum from 2011 is offered by the original owner in an attractive overall condition.
