History

François-Paul Journe, born in Marseille in 1957, founded his manufacture in Geneva in 1999 under the motto Invenit et Fecit: to invent and build the complete movement. It produces 800 to 1,000 watches a year and owns a casemaker and a dialmaker in Meyrin. It has won the GPHG Aiguille d'Or three times, in 2004, 2006 and 2008. Chanel bought 20% of the company in 2018.
