Luxury watchmakers F.P. Journe have opened a new boutique in Miami’s exclusive Bal Harbour Shops Mall. François-Paul Journe himself was there to cut the official ribbon at the boutique opening, along with Amélie Lefevere, new CEO of F.P. Journe,  Matthew Whitman Lazenby, owner of the Mall, Richard Furnari, Boutique Director, and Pierre Halimi, Director of F.P. Journe in the USA. The Bal Harbour boutique is company’s eighth in the world, after Geneva, Paris, New York, Boca Raton, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Beijing.

The interior of the boutique is a beautiful reflection of the Swiss company; tastefully designed by François-Paul Journe, the boutique will bring the prestige of haute horlogerie to American collectors in Miami, and allow visitors to experience the world of F.P. Journe. An elegant and relaxing atmosphere, the boutique boasts a salon, a bar and a watch library. Visitors will have access to a magnificent collection of F.P. Journe precision chronometers and Limited Series and special editions reserved exclusively for the F.P. Journe Boutiques. The boutique also features a fascinating glimpse of François-Paul Journe and his watchmakers at work in Geneva, Switzerland, through black-and-white pictures on view throughout.
