The **Chronomètre à Résonance** is a wristwatch by [[F. P. Journe]].

==== Info ====
The [[resonance chronometer]] consists of two largely independent watch movements that are only coupled by a common [[balance staff]] and by their resonance When the half-cycle of one [[balance wheel]] slows, it speeds up the other - and vice versa. Since the year [[2000]] Journe offers this feature for watch connoisseurs as an own watch creation the //Chronomètre à Résonance//.

The watch, according to the name, offers [[chronometer]] precision and is equipped with a [[dual timezone]]. (Journe rejects certifications at the [[COSC]], because he estimates their standards as inadequate and too lax.)

There is a version in [[red gold]] and a limited version in [[platinum]].

[[F.P. Journe]] won the Complicated Watch Prize at the [[Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève]] for the Chronomètre à Résonance in November, [[2010]].
