This collection has been inspired by an important collector, aficionado of F.P. Journe watches, who committed himself in numerous marathon and triathlon competitions and wished to have an ultra light sports watch, coupled with a movement of authentic high horology.
F.P. Journe undertook long researches to find an ultra light and resistant material to receive his exceptional calibres; while maintaining the standards of high horology that inhabit his everyday life. The Octa Automatique Réserve presents the new movement entirely made of Aluminium reserved exclusively for the “lineSport”. With an extreme lightness in absolute comfort, the watch in its totality only weighs around 60 grams (on rubber bracelet).
The new Octa Sport Titanium is also proposed with a rubber strap and both versions are available from all F.P.Journe Boutiques and points of sale.

Rubber inserts are fixed with an outstanding process to the tips of each link of the Aluminium bracelet, the sides of the case and the Titanium crown in order to efficiently protect the watch from any shocks, just like the bumper of an ancient automobile. The crown and the folding clasp, both in Titanium and engraved with the F.P. Journe signature, are covered with a rubbercoating. In addition, the folding clasp offers an adjustment system of a half link size (4mm approx.).
