[vc_row njt-role=”people-in-the-roles” njt-role-user-roles=”administrator,editor,author,armember”][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Luxury pre-owned watch platform Watchbox is betting on the rise of independent brands by launching a traveling exhibition celebrating watch brands Fp Journe and De Bethune.

 

Entitled Two decades of complexity & Beauty- The pivotal collection by FP Journe and De Bethune, this touring exhibition will travel around the world.

 

After Zurich, the presentation tour continues and will be on display at the Hotel Président Wilson in Geneva from today until November 7. This will be the first edition of RE-Luxury, dedicated to the re-commerce of luxury and collectible objects as well as to initiatives in the field of the circular economy.

 

It will then stop in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore, London, Dubai and some cities in the United States. For the moment, no official dates have been set.

 

With this roadshow, Watchbox wants to celebrate the visionary spirit of FP Journe and De Bethune, two of the greatest watch brands of the modern era. Last year, the platform took a majority stake in De Bethune. CEO Pierre Jacques calls the acquisition a strategic decision: “The world has changed during the pandemic, and we need new channels and new ways to offer the same experience to our customers.”

 

At the traveling exhibition, 100 timepieces from FP Journe and De Bethune will be on display and available for purchase. Among the highlights of the retrospective will be the DB1 Monopoussoir Chronophage from De Bethune and the DB28 Maxichrono five-hand watch from FP Journe. The Geneva edition will also include various events, panels and educational lectures.

 

 

Watchbox’s executive chairman says, “François-Paul Journe and Denis Flageollet are two of the most fascinating and talented watchmakers of this era. Our retrospective is a celebration of their technical and artistic innovations, the collections that have defined the brand over the past two decades and the community drawn to this independent sphere.”
