Description:

Chronometre Bleu offers an uncluttered approach to high precision, with irreproachable chronometric properties. It is innovative with a 39mm case made of Tantalum, a dark grey metal with blue overtones, so named after the “Torment of Tantalus” in reference to Greek Mythology. Tantalum is a metal rarely used in watchmaking because it is very hard and difficult to fashion (its fusion temperature is 3016° and its density is 16.65 kg/CM3). It is also valued for its extremely high resistance to corrosion and wear, and its bio compatibility.

The blue chrome dial, which perfectly complements the color of the case, has been redesigned with the latest trends in mind, and features cream-colored hands and large Arabic numerals.

The Chronometre Bleu’s 18K rose gold mechanical movement with manual winding oscillates at 21,600 vibrations per hour. Twin barrels, in the classic configuration of precision watches, work in parallel to deliver stable for most of the watch’s 56-hour autonomy. The F.P. Journe freespring chronometer balance, with inertia adjustment via four opposing weights, is dynamically adjusted in six positions.
