The Octa in a sports case

The F.P. Journe Automatique Réserve, LineSport, reference AR2, in platinum on the platinum bracelet with matte hammered finish, blue-mauve silver guilloché dial with matte white gold applied numerals. Self-winding Octa calibre 1300.3 in 18K rose gold, with day/night indication, power reserve and very large date. 44 mm, 11 mm high.

The Automatique Réserve is the LineSport collection's Octa time-and-date watch. The 44 mm case, 11 mm high, has a bezel inlaid with ceramic, and comes on a bracelet matched to its case. The Octa 1300.3 movement is made in 18K rose gold. The platinum bracelet has a matte hammered finish, developed specifically for the model, and the links at the case are articulated, with a folding clasp adjustable by about 5 mm.

The dial adds a day-and-night indication to the Octa's centred hours and minutes, small seconds at 6 o'clock, power reserve and large date, the date at 1 o'clock in the 4.7 × 2.6 mm window. The day/night and reserve indications sit at 7h30 and 9h30. Winding is unidirectional through an off-centre rotor in 22K 5N gold, and the reserve is rated at 160 ± 10 hours. The balance is free-sprung on four adjustable inertia weights with a flat Anachron spring, at 21,600 vibrations an hour. The crown winds in position 0, corrects the date in position 1 and the time in position 2.
