SIHH 2009: PARMIGIANI FLEURIER Tondagraph
[ via SIHH ]
The Tondagraph is celebrating two major new features : its grande complication, unprecedented since the creation of the Fleurier brand, and its new case, with more pronounced classic curves.
Let's take its mechanism first. Combining the beauty of the Tourbillon with the technical function of the Chronograph, the Tondagraph model (Calibre PF 354) has joined the highly exclusive domain of Parmigiani Fleurier's Haute Horlogerie collections, the fruit of tens of essential trades working on a manufactured piece. Finally, its case. Its round shape has been redesigned to provide space and openings. Now incorporating a bezel, it offers greater expression for the dial's time indications. The lugs so characteristic of the Parmigiani style stand out as a final signature of its elegance.
