Journe Centigraphe Souverain Boutique Edition reference 193 in 18k pink gold was introduced around 2008 and remained in production until the caliber 1506 was phased out for the updated 1519 movement. This reference is distinguished by its manual-wind 18k rose gold movement and a specific aesthetic configuration reserved for brand boutiques, featuring a black dial with red accents and a 40mm pink gold case. Collectors value the caliber 1506 for its patented mechanism that isolates the chronograph from the timekeeping gear train, allowing the foudroyante hand to measure 1/100th of a second without affecting amplitude. On the secondary market, this reference typically trades in the mid-to-high six-figure range. A notable production detail is the rocker-style actuator at 2 o'clock, which replaces traditional pushers to start, stop, and zero the chronograph, a design unique to the Centigraphe line."}, "listing_stats": {"count": 0, "median": 0, "low": 0, "high": 0}, "listings": [], "auction_lots": [{"slug": "f-p-journe-193-2021", "brand": "F.P.
