Welcome here, dear Elo!

Welcome and thanks for this reminder on the Toric...

Thank you Magnus !
Parmigiani Fleurier have its own manufacturer "Quadrance et Habillage" which manufactures a variety of dials ! In my opinion, the hand work of the meteorite dial of the Tonda 1950 is also fabulous ! I will write on it very soon !
Thank you for reading Ornatus-Mundi :)
The next post is coming very soon, I hope you will enjoy !
The Toric is a good choice from their lineup

Thank you for the sharing of this article !
I'm going to read it. I agree with you, i appreciate this association between tradition and contemporary !
Thank you for reading this post !
It is true that the Toric's dial is very classic. Maybe you will have a change of mind with another watch ? I will write about the micro-rotor, love it too !
