I enjoy the simplicity of this dial. Great review!

I actually really like the PF new design language. and I hear you what you mean about the bracelet gaps. but no watch is ideal from what I have come learn in this hobby

Not sure how the Tonda Pf is a failure if Parmigiani Fleurier’s Tonda Pf line is literally on fire, they are massively increasing production and still can not follow the demand. Comparing it to the Royal Oak is comparing 2 opposites of the spectrum. Both are great offerings, the RO is all about marking the presence with the shapes and the reflections of the bracelet, whereas the Tonda Pf is subdued and understated . Tastes differ, personally I wouldn’t mind owning both. Maybe one day.

Bought the micro rotor. Very happy with it.

This is a beautiful everyday watch which goes well with casual and formal atire while achieving the goal of not turning heads. Which is personally love, it is luxury for a person who wishes to enjoy luxury without showing it.

Star of Watches and Wonders 2022!

If possible, could you do a video on Grönefeld someday? They make some incredible watches, just hard to come by!

I am a big fan of Parmigiani’s prior design language. Not only were the dials artistic, the case and lugs were spectacular, differentiated and elegant. I mean, just look at the lugs of the prior watches. With the new watches, they certainly retain the quality and ooze great craftsmanship from the movement to the case details. However, while taking an under the radar approach allowing parmigiani to access a broader market, they seem to have lost much of the uniqueness that set them apart. No doubt this is a real balancing act. My one request which I believe would go far bringing back some of the uniqueness is to take the existing case and allow for a leather strap but one that goes all the way to the case allowing for the lugs to stand out as they did in prior generations. I wish them the best of luck. I still collect their prior design ethos pieces.

I personally like the design alot, just wish it was SLIGHTLY smaller. (Around 38mm)

Does anyone know where to get this at the " grey" market ?

Your comments got me confused and hesitant about the watch, while i definitely see its unique elements of design i also see the overly empty dial which i sometimes see very elegant and other times boring , wish the dial had a bigger pattern guilloche to fill the gap.

I totally agree with you about how too empty the dial is. Wish the index was much more complicated or sophisticated than the current chunk of metal. If i had the money, i would go for Czapek antartique or pay some more for the new reveleation.

It just doesn't do it for me. Too stark and reserved design for my tastes. I'd take a Moser Streamliner line over it every time. Now that watch looks iconic from its inception. You ain't mistaking the Streamliner for anything else. This however, just lacks character comparatively.

Parmigiani is such a haphazardly "throw something and see what sticks brand"... as independent and watchmaker credibility wise, Michael Parmigiani is up there with the likes of FPJ, Kari etc being the personal watchmaker of the Sandoz foundation ... but the watches bearing his name is at best the "TAG of independent watchmaking"

no overview of how the GMT works? trash review

VC Overseas is probably the best high horological sports watch ever made 👍 no ugly Cheese brand Parmigiani….

Chicken parmejan 😂

Complete failure at this price point. reduce the RRP by 10k and this will have some hope
