  • Catalogue Essay

    To commemorate the firm’s 25th anniversary, the Tonda PF collection was released in August 2021, and it was immediately met by great enthusiasm from the watch community. The Tonda PF models were originally only available in 40 or 42 mm. In response to the requests for smaller case sizes, the present time-only reference was released in 2022 with three variants, all featuring a much smaller case measuring only 36mm in diameter. Although smaller in size, the case design remains perfectly balanced in proportion.

    The striking elegance of the present timepiece is prompted by the subtle nuanced details on the watch. The Grain d’Orge (meaning barleycorn in french) guilloché on the sand grey dial is awe-inspiring, and the exquisite skeletonized delta-shaped hands are a perfect match for the beautifully polished PF signature. Further coupled with hand applied gold appliques, the dial culminates into a true mastery of tantalizing simplicity. Complementing the exquisite fluting on the platinum bezel, the attractive integrated bracelet not only accentuates the unique sports chic appeal of the timepiece, but also sits comfortably on the wrist.

    Sitting inside the case, the automatic caliber PF770 decorated with the highest level of finishing is visible via the transparent case back. A 22K pink gold skeletonized rotor adorned with the PF logo can be seen oscillating on top of the beautiful movement, with the base plate decorated with perlage and the bridges with Côtes de Genève. The movement beats at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and boasts a power reserve of 60 hours.

    The present example is offered in “like new” condition, and it is complete with its full original accessories. Exuding a discreet elegance and refinement, this minimalistic timepiece with reduced dimensions is a dream for the watch enthusiasts with slender wrists, and it would surely appeal to any knowledgeable and cultured connoisseur.
