Reviews

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

F.P.Journe Chronomètre Souverain

Owners and reviewers praise the F.P.Journe Chronomètre Souverain for its elegant, thin 40mm case and its technically interesting, gold-plated manual-wind Caliber 1304 movement. The dial's non-symmetrical display, featuring small seconds and a unique backward-moving power reserve indicator, is a highlight, as is the watch's chronometric performance. Some observers prefer platinum over red gold for the Havana dial variant, and one reviewer notes that finishing is not considered the absolute highest-end, though wearability and innovative movement design are consistently lauded. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the F.P.Journe Chronomètre Souverain highly for its discreet elegance and focus on chronometric performance.

Furlan Marri Flyback

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Furlan Marri Flyback for its stunning, vintage-inspired sector dials and luxurious case finishing, with many highlighting its classical 38mm size and comfortable wearability due to its cowhorn lugs and short lug-to-lug distance. The Sellita AMT5100 manual-wind movement with flyback function is noted as a key feature, contributing to its value proposition. Some reviewers find the pushers to be on the small side, and one review mentions the case thickness exceeding 13mm, leading to a bulky feel despite mitigating factors. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Furlan Marri Flyback highly for its exceptional vintage design and finishing at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Furlan Marri Flyback features a custom Swiss-made movement with a column wheel and flyback complication. The 18K rose gold plating adds a premium touch. The watch is available in three dial variations.
