A Symbol of Renewal
Launched in 2021, the Tonda PF collection has become a symbol of Parmigiani Fleurier's spectacular renewal. This collection is a testament to the brand's relentless pursuit of timeless aesthetics and refined mechanical artistry. Every detail, from the signature knurled platinum bezel to the finely guilloché dial, reflects a philosophy where purity meets technical sophistication.
The Tonda PF 36mm continues this vision, embodying a discreet luxury that values authenticity and craftsmanship over ostentation. It's a watch designed to elevate the most delicate wrists while maintaining an undeniable presence.
A Vibrant Expression of Freedom
The "Stone Blue" dial, a first for the hours and minutes configuration in this model, showcases Parmigiani Fleurier's dedication to sophisticated nuances. Inspired by Le Corbusier’s architectural palette, this vibrant blue has solidified its place as a chromatic signature within the Tonda PF collection.
This captivating blue evokes the serenity of a morning sky and the calming reflections of still waters, embodying an intimate connection with nature. It symbolizes contemplation, creativity, and a timeless aesthetic rooted in the pursuit of perfection.
The Imprint of Light
The beauty of the "Stone Blue" dial is further enhanced by its artisanal craftsmanship. The finely guilloché Grain d’Orge motif captures light, creating subtle plays of reflection and revealing new facets of its delicate hue with every glance.
The dial harmonizes seamlessly with the knurled platinum bezel and the stainless steel case, both hallmarks of the Tonda PF collection. Hand-applied rhodium-plated gold indexes add a touch of refined elegance. This perfect balance between minimalist design and precious details makes the Tonda PF 36mm a symbol of discreet and timeless sophistication.
A Vision of Serene Modernity
"Stone Blue is an invitation to escape, suspended between sky and horizon, where light and purity meet," says Michel Parmigiani, Founder and Master Watchmaker. "Inspired by the timeless hues of Le Corbusier, this blue embodies a serene modernity, capable of adapting to every era. It reflects my love for this unique shade, which stimulates imagination, nourishes artistic expression, and opens infinite horizons. Through it, every creation becomes an exploration, a journey toward freedom and inspiration."
The Tonda PF 36mm is more than just a watch; it's an expression of freedom, a celebration of artistry, and a testament to Parmigiani Fleurier's unwavering commitment to timeless elegance.
