Comics dedicated to François-Paul Journe

We don't see very often comics dedicated to a contemporary watchmaker! This Manga by Nakano Kung-fu was published by a Japanese editor, Aya Fujishima and is a nice gift for the friends of the brand. Sadly, it is a rare book and its print run was low.

An original way to browse François-Paul Journe's career and his milestones!

It featured Ludwig and Rolf and rather a lot of the early history of those two at UN during the 90's and early 2000's with the Astronomical watches and the Perpetual Calendar developed by Ludwig. I'll have to see if I can dig out a photo of it. I think in...
