Chronograph Engineering at Its Finest
The Centigraphe is a technical marvel, designed to measure elapsed times from 1 second down to an incredible 1/100th of a second, a feat rarely seen in traditional mechanical watchmaking. The unique pusher system at 2 o’clock ensures minimal energy loss, allowing for ultra-fast timing without affecting the movement’s accuracy.
Powered by an in-house manual-winding calibre crafted in 18k rose gold, the Centigraphe maintains F.P. Journe’s dedication to artisanal finishing and precision. Its dial layout is both practical and visually striking, featuring three registers for 1-second, 20-second, and 10-minute measurements. Offered in precious metals or as part of the sporty LineSport series in titanium or aluminium, it is a favourite among collectors who value both innovation and craftsmanship.

Frequently Asked Questions.
A dedicated chronograph train drives the 1/100th-second hand at 10 o’clock, which makes one full revolution every second over a scale divided into hundredths. The system is engineered to minimise energy draw from the timekeeping train so rate stability is maintained during timing.
The sub-dial at 10 o’clock shows hundredths across a one-second sweep, the 2 o’clock register totals up to 20 seconds, and the 6 o’clock register totals up to 10 minutes. Start timing with the rocker, note the 10 o’clock hand for split-second events, then read the 20-second and 10-minute counters for longer intervals.
The single, patented rocker controls start, stop, and reset in a short, positive travel. Its design reduces lateral stress and helps keep amplitude steady compared with conventional multi-pusher chronographs.
It’s optimised for high-precision bursts rather than permanent running. You can keep it running, but for reduced wear and best long-term performance, stop and reset when you’re not actively timing.
