Introducing Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Micro-Rotor Steel Pacific Blue SHH Edition
In its quest for purism and innovation, Parmigiani Fleurier is rewriting watchmaking in its two-pronged quest giving new form and meaning to the genre of integrated bracelet luxury sports watches, in essence titillating the interest of a “savvy cultural elite in watchmaking who appreciate heritage, superior craft and (possess) a strong sense of style and refinement”.
Suffice it to say, given that the Maison’s present CEO Guido Terreni inaugurated the beginning of this new era for segment in his previous role at Bvlgari – heralding the Octo Finissimo and putting pause to a genre of watchmaking once dominated by Audemars Piguet.
Since last year, Parmigiani Fleurier’s philosophy behind the entire Tonda PF range was ably demonstrated even by its simplest model, the Micro-Rotor Steel pictured here – a watch that’s about as unpretentious yet as accomplished as it’s possible to get.
Adrift subtle micro details combined in a timepiece, which measures an eminently wearable 40mm in diameter, resulting in an objet d’art that is perceptibly minimalistic yet crazily abundant in extraordinary nuance: a delight for the wearer, like a newly wed to be unveiled.
Limited to just 50 pieces, this SHH Edition comes with a guilloché dial in Pacific Blue – a colour created exclusively for Sincere Fine Watches – while the refined, barely perceptible guilloché pattern is visible through the delicately skeletonised but instantly legible “delta” hands. Only the finest of fluting lends tactile interest to the bezel, and at the same time provides a perfect contrast to the texture of the dial.
