Sure bud. It's just my moderately informed read on the situation. I certainly do not know stock at every FPJ outlet in the US, much less the world. I do know that it is much harder to get any FPJ today than it was a year ago, that almost every single watch coming to the US in 2021 is already sold, and that half the watches coming in 2022 are already spoken for.

Mark, fantastic photos some amazing watch porn on show there.

I know from private conversations that you had an amazing day and met some amazing people.

I genuinely do not think that anybody treats their customers better than F.P.J do.

Thanks for posting, this is an amazing thread buddy.

Completely agree with this. Although my main boutique is the LA one (Laurent is great), I've been to the NY and Miami boutiques several times (love the new Miami one). Always treated extremely well.

That is a beautiful watch! Perhaps before our big trip to NYC in 2022 I will put out a call for FPJ collectors who are near there to meet up. Would be a blast!

I'm up for that Mark, let's have a proper watch-nerds day out with an open invite to the NYC F.P.J. Boutique to talk watches, swap watches and of course beers.

I know we're already both in, but wouldn't it be great to meet other collectors and watch enthusiasts.

FPJ: A Day in Miami
Speaking from someone who has collected all the brands for many years- FPJ Boutiques and the brand make you feel at home, make you feel valued as a collector, and they treat you as a friend. And then they bring out the watches that are simply works of art. They had me at hello.

I hope this never changes.

That is spectacular and it on my years long plan! Love the split seconds!

I too have collected many brands over many years but FPJ, and the brand relationship, is a unique experience for me. Nothing ever like it before.
