Parmigiani

Sharing some excellent photos from Watch Collecting Lifestyle of the new Toric QP, Ref PFH952-2010002-300181. As articulated by CEO Guido Terreni, the intent of the minimalist design is to allow "time-reading at a glance," so hours and minutes are center ...  

But I love the well executed minimalism and data at a glance.👌🏽

When I had the Toric QP on my wrist, I don't recall having the sensation of struggling to read the subdials. Of course things were moving fairly quickly and I was carrying on multiple conversations simultaneously so I can't say with certainty that I focus... 

...a tad thicker would help. I understand going for an aesthetic, but watches also have purposes other than being 'art.' If they cannot be easily read, some of their purpose is diminished...

I do like the light blue and think a two hander with that dial would be totally amazing.

Parmigiani is doing wonderful things with colors, both on dials and straps and the combination of the two.

I really like this casual look! Bravo PF! Bravo!

Getting the right dial / strap combo can dramatically enhance the look of a watch and consequently its commercial success or failure. I think CEO Guido "gets it" when it comes to watch aesthetics. Thanks for commenting. M4

The white gold and platinum with the blue dials are my favourites and the new straps really go so well with these watches and really enhance them, Now that the intention of PF has been detailed I think they have hit and exceeded what they intended. Marc

I’ve never owned a watch from the brand, but I am tempted more and more by them. Maybe one day……

PF is a legitimate vertically integrated manufacturer. Everything from movements to dials to cases to screws. The craftsmanship of their watches is palpable. The only question is whether the design and aesthetic appeals to the individual consumer. When th... 

I’ve always been interested in the brand. I promise I’ll post when one of their beautiful watches ends up with me 😁👍

But nothing that I would get. I don’t like the two sub center registers, plus I would want a moonphase. Nice clean aesthetic however. Now, what I do want, is the strap from the platinum one! I need to email them and see if they sell them (I’m hoping it’s ... 

I'll check on the strap size.

And I completely agree with you concerning the pleasure of the manual winding ritual. I also like the fact that manual winding allows you to keep the watch ticking without having to wear (you can wear another watch and just keep winding the perpetual cale... 

Those color combos are just amazingly pleasing to the eyes. Thanks for sharing ! Cheers Robin
