I have had two, one in platinum and the other titanium (Tokyo edition).  I have enjoyed both, and as a piece is one of my favorites (not only a Journe favorite but a favorite from all my collection).  Typically, I have both dials set at the same time (to emphasize the resonance idea the watch employees), but I've also used the Resonance as a dual time zone watch.  My only issue:  While a wonderful watch from the dial side, I am always tempted to view the movement, a few times per day, since it is one of the more unique movements I've seen--the symmetry, the workmanship.  It takes a few minutes each time I wear the Resonance to become used to winding the watch crown at 12, but with a couple moments of care, I enjoy the experience.

For me, the Resonance defines the Journe approach to watchmaking and the entire Journe aesthetic.  Enjoy the journey.

Best,

Douglas

Resonance

If I could only own one Journe it would definitely be the Resonance. The movement alone is reason enough not just for aesthetics but also the brilliant use of the resonance principle in a wristwatch. This is truly unique and to date I don't know of any ot... 

Brad, it's not the placement...
