SpotlightParmigiani Fleurier Present The New Tonda PF Micro-Rotor No Date And Tonda PF Skeleton Platinum Blue

Parmigiani Fleurier presented a no-date version of the Tonda PF Micro-Rotor and a new Tonda PF Skeleton with a platinum blue dial at the Watches and Wonders Geneva 2024 show. While the Tonda PF Micro-Rotor No Date sheds everything superfluous to bring forth just the essential, the Tonda PF Skeleton shows the brand’s contemporary approach to age-old art of skeletonisation. For the No Date Tonda PF Micro-Rotor, the watchmaker chooses a simple design. On the other hand, the Tonda PF Skeleton focuses on maintaining a balance between materials and transparency. With a small oscillating weight construction of the Tonda PF Micro-Rotor No Date’s movement, the craftspeople were able to achieve a significant reduction in the thickness of the watch. The Tonda PF Micro-Rotor Golden Siena measures just 7.8mm on the wrist for a comfortable fit. Meanwhile, the Tonda PF Skeleton Platinum Blue combines complexity and simplicity. It features floating hour markers for a spacious feel of the dial and two openworked hands that move gracefully across the watch face.

For The Purists: The Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Micro-Rotor No Date

The newest addition to the collection, the Tonda PF Micro-Rotor No Date maintains a clean, minimalist aesthetic. An ode to form and function, Parmigiani Fleurier have chosen to give the golden siena dial time indications but no date window. The watch represents the brand’s functional and chromatic design DNA, blending thoughtful finishes with exceptional watchmaking craftsmanship.

Parmigiani Fleurier have created the distinctive golden siena shade with moiré effects, inspired from the rich sienna colour scheme. A hallmark of Parmigiani Fleurier’s watchmaking, the dial features hand guilloche. The grain d’orge signature renders a fine texture, which provides a superb backdrop for the 18-karat gold rhodium-plated skeletonised delta-shaped hands.

Outstanding Openwork: The Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Skeleton Platinum Blue

The Tonda PF Skeleton became an instant hit for its steel and 18-karat rose gold design when it was first showcased two years ago. Banking on this fame is the new all-platinum version—the Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Skeleton Platinum Blue. The watch offers a spectacular view into its intricate PF777 movement, while the closed portions offer good contrast with openworked elements.
