Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Chronograph 

Never! (But thanks)

Me too

It will have close to no resale value, but that’s ok… right? Right?

The Tonda to me is "The" watch to buy second hand if your looking for a solid gold dress watch for a killer price.

I have never seen anybody wearing a PF, I have only seen discounted stock at grey’s for 30-40cts on the dollar.. which can be a good thing, but even if you could obtain this Tonda for 65% off list I would struggle to buy it. It’s too plain Jane for me and I rather get a Overseas instead..

The most comfortable bracelet? No, not for me. But everyone's wrist is different.

Google is learning.

I agree. It sure is well made, but the dial looks rather boring.

It really is.

Like your comment… and i agree with everything u said.

Not bad.

My pleasure!

Welcome to the club.

I'll take credit for the editing.

👍

Don't waste those cashews! You'll need the money.

I was tired of them before they started.

Thanks

Start saving... everything.

For this dial Parmigiani clearly said they used a rose engine. www.hodinkee.com/articles/parmigiani-tonda-pf-collection

@@YoureTerrific Strange. Just asked Alex of WatchAdvisor a few days ago in his video where he visited Parmigiani manufacture and told me in the comments that it’s not real guillochage.

Thanks

Thanks

Apologies

I think about pasta too, when I hear the name. Guess it’s because Parmigiani is my favorite cheese…lol

We don't talk about that. 🤫

I hear you.

I’m sorry for your loss.

Same

Money

Nobody pays full price for Parmigiani…discount of 30-50%, can be had.

That’s no way to talk to a Nomos!

@@YoureTerrific 😂

I feel like most watches are designed for wrists my size. I'm about average for a Europe-descended cis male.

I hear that.

Does anyone know if this is hand machine guilloche or just machined. Seem to be seeing conflicting information. I thought all guilloche was hand turned or can it be fully done by machines automated now?

There are many from many brands.

@@YoureTerrific my point exactly. Starting to get ridiculous now.

Sounds like you have no idea what kind of build quality you’re getting with PF. If a VC is a Rolls Royce then a PF is a Rolls Royce with all the bells and whistles. Know what you’re buying before you knock a retail price. If VC made this exact watch the exact same way (components, movement etc.) it would cost at least 40,000. This is 100% the best Chronograph available in a sports watch that’s available on the market. It’s not even a contest. Also…..you can’t buy these either unless you were dead first or know your retailer. So their sales for the TONDA PF line are not an issue. Go look at the secondary market This also wears much slimmer, smaller and gracefully than a VC overseas Chronograph. And if you’re buying watches for investments, then high horology is not for you. Just stick to the names

For sure.

Glad someone noticed.

🤷🏻‍♂️

Less, I believe.

I'm going to need an explanation.

Thanks. You seem great.

Agreed, looks like one of those watches at your local Macys.

@@SlickRick135 Indeed! The movements seem to be quite interesting, but other companies in this price range have much more thoughtful designs.

You would think the same thing of AP if you didn’t know what it was

@@jordanc9169 I do not like the royal oaks because of the hype around them, but the case itself is a more original idea then the Parmigiani ones in my opinion.

give Mr. Guido a decade then people will start recognizing.
