High interest and low link production has resulted in a swollen secondary market; the Chronometre Bleu link has consistently traded for plus or minus six figures for the last 12 months. As part of the 2022 price increase, F.P. Journe officially increased the MSRP of link the Chronometre Bleu to $37,400 – a substantial increase that better reflects the demand behind the watch, as well as the labor and time commitment required for its production.

That's because they basically are the same movement the 2232 link is a no-date version of the 2236 just as the calibers which preceded them the 2231 and 2235 were also no-date and date versions of the same movement link and like the new calibers are 20mm in diameter.
