On the Toric, I can tolerate it quite well, though.

Dear fellow Purists, It's been many years I am reading and learning from this forum, from a bunch of generous people sharing their knowledge, insights and passion. Thanks to all of you. You've been a great help and inspiration. I'd like to start my contri...

It's been 14 years since you bought it and it looks as fresh and beautiful as ever. This design will never get old. Just spectacular - love it.

Thanks, alphabeta. Don't wear it as often as I should

but everytime I do, I remember how "right" this one feels.

Welcome here, Daniel. Yes, you are right, we don't see many Parmigiani here, and it is a pity. There are some very nice ones.

The Toric is very much my taste. If only it didn't have this date window... All the best! Nicolas

Beautiful PF. Although I've never owned one, I've always liked PF's attention to detail and many of their styles. Cheers, John

Thank you John

I really like their older models. Some of the newer ones, like the Tonda 1950 also appeal to me.

That's a sublime piece

Thanks Emil. I agree Parmigiani always flies under the radar.

In one way that's a pity because they don't get the reputation they maybe deserve. On the other hand, I am quite happy not to have an icon on the wrist that everybody points at.

My goodness, it's gorgeous!

you are very right that we do not see too often a Parmigiani here...and how pity that is.... among all main stream common watches that are seen routinely, it's very refreshing to see such an example.. looking great..

Thank you, Izhik.

The response from this thread encourages me to post some other pieces from the brand. There's even one that might please amanico - no date window

Agreed. The Toric is just "right" the way it is.

I'll be posting another one soon. Thanks, iceheller.

That's beautiful

It’s a classic design that has stood the test of time. The guilloche rotor and intricate casework are outstanding. It’s interesting that both Michel Parmigiani and Roger Dubuis choose the Lemania 8815 for their early watches.
