I love Parmigiani

I think the rose gold version with chrono is outstanding.  They are very underated. I have a tonda dual time, my wife has a kalpa.  They are now being run by the guy who brought out all the new bvlgari models.  It should help them alot.

Only 250 pieces Thoughts? ...  

Blue and white is very fresh and sporty..,

and don’t often see blue luminova, nice blue rubber strap too 😌

Competent company, some significant movements over the past 45 years

I visited about 15 years ago - they are a small place, outside of the main Swiss watchmaking districts, and very friendly. I was surprised that they make such nice watches but don't have much visibility in the industry. Cheers, Cazalea ...  

Good but not great ...

In my opinion, keep looking.

Personally, I prefer the black/gray dial

That’s the first one I saw some months ago...

it hits many of the current popular notes.

I think this model is bringing a lot of interest...

which may elevate their profile, but will make negotiations more difficult 😌

It is crisp, well said and maybe unusual for a guilloché dial.

I didn’t adjust the strap so it would likely hug the wrist better, in person I found it a good size. Bracelet is a nice look for sure but rubber maybe more comfortable.

i don't know what it is about my wrist but i found it uncomfortable

but as much as i liked other watches like the streamliner could never get a good fit. think it's a me problem more than anything nowadays. wearing my tondagraph on rubber, more comfy.

👍

The rose gold version has one of the best blue dials I’ve seen...

and the chronograph is a 25 piece edition. Very special piece but more of a commitment certainly. Agree their new hire could be of benefit. With increasing interest in independents the timing may be right.

I’m glad they are only making 250 pieces of this watch.

They can do better…much better.

Ouch lol 😂

I love this GT line—

— the bracelets are killer, too.

I love my Parmigiani Tonda 1950

The case, lugs, movement, dial (even if simple looking) are all very well crafted and finished. The rubber strap and dial with blue looks great on you. Hope you join the Parmigiani club They are a very under rated brand as we all Cheers Robin ...  

For me it looks great.

I believe that they made a mistake not to offer this model as part of their regular collection. It could have been a stand-out model for them to become more popular with a wider audience.

I agree. I’m hesitant somewhat because are they really going to stop a 100m sporty watch that hits all the current popular notes?

 
 By: oyster case : May 12th, 2021-15:48
I like the limited aspect but maybe more versions will appear, with little aesthetic changes? Having a desirable staple in the lineup helps the brand.

Quite original combination

 
 By: VinnieD : May 12th, 2021-09:25
I quite like it, how large is it? Maybe a tad too big for me Parmigiani has produced some top movements, with finishing above many top tier brands.

It’s 42mm x12.1mm. This movement is described as finely finished, so not hand finished.

The integrated COSC chronograph PF071 in the rose gold version is “all decorated by hand on visible surfaces...all internal angles are also beveled and polished by hand” Parmigiani can finish a movement at the highest level when they decide. They based th...

Definitely my favorite Parmagini.

Many share your view 👍

Hi, Thanks for posting the photograph. I've been curious to see what this white-dial version of the Tonda GT looks like.

 
 By: Rosneathian : May 13th, 2021-04:22
I bought the black dial-steel bracelet version some months ago. PF did a fine job with it - it's fluid and complex - and the only SS watch I need. If you don't mind I'll share two photos here so folks can compare and contrast white with black. ...  

The more pictures the better 👍 Your version is very nice and very versatile...

 
 By: oyster case : May 13th, 2021-17:28
and the rubber strap option could be easily added if you ever want a change of pace.

Great analysis champ 👍

Will also be difficult to work anything new into the collection, the new AP has really taken over 😌

Understandable 👍
