I have been told by PF personnel that the records from the early years are "terrible" so not likely to know quantities with any degree of certainty.
Your guess of 100 - 200 seems reasonable but I'm just speculating.
Toric Memory Time: which metal?
The Toric Memory Time is one of my favorite Parmigiani Fleurier models. It has been crafted in all four precious metals . Despite my preference for the warmth of coloured gold, my favorite here is probably the platinum version, as I'm not entirely convinc...
WG & PT
Are two of my favorite precious metals, although I do not own either as of today. The last time I looked at it seriously was a Cartier Tortue CPCP in PT and the metal looked cold and not very attractive on my wrist, especially compared to the warmth of th...
I agree concerning the Cartier feel provided by the Cabochon.
White metals often feel too cold for me too. It only "works" for me with certain pieces like the 5098P. Best, Emmanuel
The platinum would be my choice too although the
Rose gold has something special too .
Yes, the rose gold hour ring works well with the grey dial.
In person, I could like it more the Pt. Best, Emmanuel
Love it
Fab shots too. I like 'em all. Platinum would be my choice if forced you choose. Any idea on the production numbers for these? 🙏
I don't think the production numbers have ever been made public.
Would 100-200 pieces per metal sound likely? Best, Emmanuel

Thanks to you both
While the set are beautiful, I'm more Inclined to the originals from 1997. Neo-vintage.
Yes, the more I think about it,
the more it is likely that in person, the RG would win me over! Best, Emmanuel
First off, I can only concur 100% that the early Toric case is magnificent, a work of art as you say.
I have a strong personal preference for white metal and between the two white metals here, platinum is my easy choice. Once you've experienced a platinum Toric, all other metals pale in comparison. Having said that, rose gold would be number 2 for me. The...
I really love this case and I think these 36 mm would fit my wrist perfectly.
I still have to see one in real life someday... And I fully agree with you the the RG is a serious contender! Best, Emmanuel
Thanks for sharing!
Those cases are splendid! For me the RG with the PT in close second. I love the soft warmth and the combination with the gray.
Yes, now that I've made the post I'm asking myself if I wouldn't prefer the RG ion the end...
Time will tell if only I manage to see them in person. Hopefully someday. Best, Emmanuel
Platinum is definitely stunning!
That said, the RG is a serious contender as some have said. Best, Emmanuel
Wow.
Those are all incredibly beautiful. I lean more toward white metals, so it would have to be the platinum for me.
Here the yellow gold and platinum
are my choices. The yellow gold is such a classic, the color way seems from a George Daniels or Roger Smith, even though the case shape has no resemblance whatsoever. The platinum is cold but very distinct. If I had to choose it would be a very hard choic...
I find it very interesting that you like the YG, which hasn't been mentioned by anyone else.
I'm sure that the real life experience would prove you right. I would really love to see the four in person and... be able to choose! One can dream! Best, Emmanuel
