Adapted to modern life rhythm, the faithful élégante F.P. Journe goes in stand-by mode after 30 minutes motionless, the mechanical motiondetector visible at 4h30 is at rest. During this standby mode, the micro processor continues to keep time, while the mechanical parts, gears,rotors and hands stop turning.
