First FP Journe. Which Dial On Platinum CS?
Hi friends. I've been a fan of FP Journe for years and am now considering picking one up while they are still relatively attainable. I'm looking at a CS in platinum, but can't decide between the classic dial and the new gold ones. I like that the classic one has the blue hands, but I'm neutral on the guilloche. I also like that the gold one is a bit more "modern" but don't love the lack of contrast with the hands. I dress more casually, with t-shirt and jeans so I'd probably put this on a navy or tan strap. Thanks!

Can’t go wrong with either..... you can dress both up and down, guilloche dial with the edge if you’re more casual!

I prefer the guilloche with the blue hands.

I’d just flip a coin if you don’t have a preference, because both are great. I have a PT CS with a Gold dial and am quite happy with it. I think switching up the strap will have a bigger effect on making the watch more casual. A brown strap will totally change the watch.

Open to other options?
Havana seems to be the flavor of the moment. :) |

I went with the gold dial and am glad I did. Being neutral on the guilloche dial is what moved me to the gold dial. The numerals POP in the sunlight.

To my eye the platinum with the guilloche dial and the rose gold with the gold dial are the best looking CS models

Gold. But it’s entirely subjective.
