Try tokyo boutique. The european and american boutiques have long queues. Unlike tokyo.

I haven’t heard anything being implemented. But I did hear from a boutique manager a couple months ago that a price increase was likely. He stated it would align with the secondary market prices.

Deployant from my resonance fits my Chrono bleu strap perfectly.

Thanks for the write-up. The FPJ BC is a beautiful watch. Images don’t do it justice. All I need to do is figure out how to get one...

Expecting CB deployant sometime this month. Should be wg for the clasp as gold has "spring" and the outer buckle part will be tantalum (same with my pt deployant as 995 pt is not ideal, although some brands use a pt alloy).
January 14th or so should be announcement of new FPJ 2019 watches. FPJ isn't part of SIHH, but they always have their announcements at the same time. Then, January 15th, 4th quarter taxes are due ! |

Any guesses on what they might announce for 2019? I’d love another entry piece, but would bet that’s unlikely.

Funny how I was crazy reading about the CB online before I got one and how I couldnt stop myself reading it even after I got one.
Got mine over 1.5 years and still love it. I owned 5711 and 5712 before but I dont get the same excitement (or worry free) when I wear my CB. Personally I enjoyed the CB much more and is something I am looking forward to pass on to my boy one day. Sent from my BAC-L22 using Tapatalk |

Its cheaper than either of the RG or Pt deployant.
I was told estimate cost for the tantalum deployant is 200k to 250K JPY. Pt is at 480K JPY. RG at 384K JPY. My concern if i get one is what to do with my existing tang buckle. |

I plan on using the deployant on my most frequently used strap, and keep the tang buckle on one of the others. One less thing to dismantle when changing straps. |

journe straps are fantastic, added a few new ones, each lending to entirely different personalities for the CB...

Thanks kunlun for the early scoop. Some gorgeous prices.
Still thinking about a CS, but I constantly look at my wrist for date. The Octas are nice, but I like the manual full view, and they’re a fair whack pricier. |
