With its asymmetrical display, oversized date aperture, moon-phase indication and retrograde power-reserve display, the Octa Divine offers a highly architectural layout emblematic of the F.P. Journe aesthetic. More discreet and understated than the Chronomètre à Résonance or the Tourbillon Souverain, the Octa Divine represents an ideal alternative for collectors seeking models that are less subject to speculation than the manufacture’s traditional icons.
