Description

Combining an Annual Calendar and a Chronograph is something not often seen in the watch world.

The combination of these two functions in one watch remain a rare sight, making the Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda Tondagraph GT a great choice for watch collectors. Some of the few examples that come to mind include Patek’s 5960 models, Carl F. Bucherer’s Heritage BiCompax Annual Calendar, or Ulysse Nardin’s Marine Chronograph Annual Calendar.

The man behind the design of the Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda Tondagraph GT is Dino Modolo. A renowned designer, Mondolo has a history in working alongside the likes of Vacheron Constantin, Raymond Weil and the Gucci Group. The joy of Modolo’s latest watch with PF is first and foremost its legibility. This is primarily thanks to its bold color scheme.

The calibre behind the Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda Tondagraph GT and its unusually combined functions is the PF043. This automatic manufacture movement provides hours, minutes, annual calendar, chronograph, big date and small seconds. As well as providing a 45-hour power reserve and frequency of 4 Hz, the calibre also showcases fine decoration in the form of Côtes de Genève stripes. This, as well as the 22-carat gold rotor, is visible via the anti-reflective sapphire crystal caseback.
