@Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Micro-Rotor watch

A collection made for connoisseurs who value a sartorial approach to watchmaking.

Luxury is apparent in the details, in every carefully designed element that has benefitted from a wealth of watchmaking knowledge.

The Tonda PF is an entirely new collection of timepieces within the Tonda family, featuring Parmigiani Fleurier’s most distinctive complications from the outset. This includes the Tonda PF Micro-Rotor, a slim, pared-down, high-end two-hander with platinum micro-rotor. The Tonda PF Chronograph features an almost flush dial and an integrated high frequency chronograph movement.

The Tonda PF Annual Calendar with retrograde date demonstrates how discretely and astutely advanced indications can be integrated into a pared-down design. All three models are available in steel with platinum knurled bezel or entirely crafted in 18ct rose gold.

“What I love most about Parmigiani is the understated refinement, the constant attention to detail and the almost maniacal level of finishing. What’s astonishing is that the brand is celebrating its 25th anniversary and it will undoubtedly evolve quickly under the leadership of Guido Terreni and the team. With the new Tonda PF Chronograph, you own something rare; a timepiece for purists and not a social status object. And that’s paramount for me.” – Watch collector and luxury consultant Alexander Friedman

Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Micro-Rotor Components
In an unusual and exclusive combination, it features hours, minutes and date. The date disc is the exact same color as the minute track’s, creating a consistent colorway. Combined with its slimness and sleekness, this makes the Tonda PF Micro-Rotor a refined everyday timepiece that can literally be worn on any occasion.

Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Micro-Rotor Movement PF703
The Tonda PF Micro-Rotor measures 40 mm in diameter and owes its pure aesthetic to the uncluttered warm grey, matte guilloché dial. It inaugurates a new version of Parmigiani Fleurier’s fundamental movement, the PF703. This ultra-slim, 3 mm thick engine is selfwinding thanks to a full platinum micro-rotor. This diminutive oscillating weight is integrated inside the movement’s structure rather than lying on top of it. The gain in height is considerable. This in turn allows the Tonda PF Micro-Rotor to measure a mere 7.8 mm on the wrist, ensuring comfort and elegance.
