The Tonda PF Skeleton Rose Gold in Milano Blue is a two-hand watch that highlights its open worked or skeletonised automatic movement and dial. It is housed in an 18K rose gold case and integrated bracelet. It belongs to the brand’s Tonda collection.

The Toric Petite Seconde Platinum in Morning Blue is three-hand watch that highlights its namesake hand-grained 18K white gold dial housed in a 950 platinum case.

Tonda PF Skeleton Rose Gold in Milano Blue

“Conceived for a contemporary collector, the TONDA PF Skeleton Rose Gold Milano Blue speaks to those drawn to pure architectures and objects whose presence emerges not from ornament, but from the subtle interplay of material, light and space.”

Image: The skeletonised automatic winding rotor is made from 22K rose gold with a polished and sandblasted finish. It evokes the steering wheel of vintage sports / GT cars. Movement finishing includes open worked bridges that are satin-finished and hand-bevelled. Notice the design of the four screws on the caseback that affix it to the main case.

Toric Petite Seconde Platinum in Morning Blue

“The contemporary TORIC does not reproduce the past. It reactivates its knowledge to answer a new question: what should a great dress watch be today? Parmigiani Fleurier’s answer is a watch liberated from the rigidity of former dress codes, one whose elegance is expressed through proportion, material, touch, and restraint. Precious without being demonstrative, it accompanies a cultivated way of dressing and living and embodies a genuine school of elegance.”

Image: The dial is known as chevé, meaning it is not flat but descends towards the outer edge, “creating a subtle transition between the central surface, the minute track and the case.” It is inspired by shaped dials from the mid-twentieth century. The hour-markers are hand-applied on the dial. The case features a polished finish. Notice the knurled bezel. I love the contours of the case.

Functions: Hours, minutes, and small seconds. Dial: Hand-grained dial in Morning Blue made from 18K white gold. The alpha-shaped hands are made from 18K gold and are rhodium-plated. The small seconds hand is made from rhodium-plated steel. The hour-markers are made from 18K gold and are rhodium-plated. Case: Made from 950 platinum, measuring 40.6 mm (diameter) * 8.8 mm (thickness). Dial side and caseback feature an ARunic anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Water resistant up to 30 metres.

Movement: Powered by PF780, a manual winding movement that drives the hours, minutes, and small seconds. It measures 12 ½ lignes or 28.40 mm (diameter) * 3.15 mm (thickness), comprises 157 parts and 27 jewels, beats at 4 Hz or 28,800 vph and delivers a power reserve of 60 hours.

What do we think?

Parmigiani Fleurier excels in crafting watches that embody craftsmanship, haute horology, and discreet elegance. They evoke an IFKYK (if you know you know) kind of vibe. The Tonda PF Skeleton Rose Gold in Milano Blue and Toric Petite Seconde Platinum in Morning Blue are two distinct examples of sublime watchmaking from the brand. They will delight collectors who have an affinity for “simple” two and three hand watches crafted to lofty standards.
