Founded in 1996 by Michel Parmigiani, thanks to the support of the Sandoz Family Foundation, Parmigiani Fleurier has quickly become one of the quiet giants of exquisite Swiss watchmaking. Thanks to their connection to the Sandoz family, Parmigiani Fleurier has been able to draw from technical resources that rival those of the biggest brands in the business. With access to Vaucher Manufacture, suppliers of movements to Richard Mille, Hermes, and other powerhouse brands, Parmigiani Fleurier certainly has the watchmaking heft behind them to perform just as well on the international stage as anyone else, even if their name isn’t as recognisable as some others. Launched in 2023, the model we have here is the Tonda PF Micro Rotor in stainless steel and platinum, an exceptionally exclusive variant of the immensely popular Tonda collection that stands at a universally wearable 40mm in diameter, allowing its integrated design to fit on the majority of wrist sizes. Made of stainless steel throughout with the exception of its bezel and boasting the Tonda’s unique bracelet design and tightly fluted platinum bezel, the Tonda Micro Rotor retains the collection’s signature aesthetics all while bringing its own flavor to the model in the form of its stunning Golden Sienna dial. Decorated with a wonderful Grain d’Orge guilloché texture across its surface that adds a layer of visual intrigue to its display that is then contrasted by a recessed chapter ring boasting concentric brushing, the Tonda Micro Rotor’s display boasts depth and fine finishing. Powered by the automatic cal. PF703 movement that is proudly displayed behind an exhibition caseback to ensure the Tonda Micro Rotor is a coalesced piece of horological luxury that is owner can enjoy in its totality.

A stylish timepiece that brings fine watchmaking together with a unique design that speaks to Parmigiani's elegant ethos, the Tonda PF Micro Rotor is a capable watch that doesn't shy away from doing things in style.
