The F.P. Journe Tourbillon Souverain Ref. TV Boutique Edition in rose gold represents one of the earliest and most defining expressions of François-Paul Journe’s independent watchmaking vision. Introduced at a time when true independent haute horlogerie was still niche, the Tourbillon Souverain established Journe as a serious force by combining classical restraint with uncompromising technical ambition. This reference is significant not only as one of Journe’s foundational complications, but also as a watch that helped legitimize modern independent watchmaking in the eyes of serious collectors.

The warm rose gold case contrasts sharply with the black dial, giving the watch a quietly authoritative presence. The exposed tourbillon aperture anchors the layout without overwhelming it, while the asymmetrical power-reserve display adds visual tension that has become a Journe signature. The typography, proportions, and finishing are deliberately understated, rewarding close inspection rather than attention at a distance. Among collectors, the rose gold Tourbillon Souverain is prized for its early-era character, rarity, and its role in defining the aesthetic language that continues to shape F.P. Journe today.

*This is a Boutique Edition.

*This timepiece comes with both a black leather strap and a brown leather strap.

The F.P. Journe Tourbillon Souverain Ref. TV Boutique Edition in rose gold is a landmark achievement in independent horology, representing the evolution of the complication that first put François-Paul Journe on the map. This reference is defined by its revolutionary vertical tourbillon cage, which rotates every 30 seconds rather than the traditional 60. This architecture was specifically engineered to ensure that the watch's rate remains constant regardless of whether it is resting flat on a table or vertically on its side, solving a centuries-old chronometric challenge with modern flair.

Aesthetically, the 42mm rose gold case provides a warm, substantial frame for the rare black dial variant, a combination that balances high-complication drama with a "stealth" elegance. The dial itself is a showcase of artisanal finishing, featuring a blackened 18k rose gold baseplate adorned with a "clous de Paris" guilloché pattern.

Inside, the manual-wind Calibre 1519 is a marvel of precious metal engineering, crafted entirely from 18k rose gold. It incorporates a remontoir d’égalité—a constant force device—to ensure the escapement receives a perfectly steady flow of energy throughout its 80-hour power reserve. Highly coveted by collectors for its technical audacity and its role in celebrating the 20th anniversary of the original Tourbillon Souverain, the Ref. TV remains one of the most mechanically sophisticated and visually arresting pieces in the world of haute horlogerie.
