This is a bit odd writing this as just a month ago I purchased a F.P. Journe Chronometre Bleu. I absolutely love it and I would guess that its taken up 50% of my wrist time since arrival. I find that i can just wear it with almost anything, even lululemon work attire now that we a lot of us are working from home!

What I have found is that I am wearing my Lange 1815 moon phase a lot less. I also own a Rolex Deepsea Sea Dweller. Maybe I am just a two watch person? I’m not sure.

What I am debating is trading my Bleu and 1815 moon phase for an Optimum. I am always attracted to technical complexity (the 1815 moon phase function is accurate to 1,058 years!) and I also feel like the Optimum has more Journe DNA in it. Will it be a classic 10 years from now? No idea.

Interested in thoughts. Am I crazy? Does it make sense?
