Catalogue Essay
A distinguished timepiece representation of the quintessence of refined watchmaking, the Toric Tourbillon cased in 18K pink gold exhibits strong DNA from the very first case designed by Michel Parmigiani when he founded his eponymous brand in 1996. Featuring a contemporary case design well-proportioned to fit the wrist, the present tourbillon with exposed screws and Côtes de Genève striped finishing gives the futuristic appearance to the watch. Furthermore the hands are finished in blue steel giving it a stunning contract across the dial. Aesthetically pleasuring, the present timepiece is preserved in excellent overall condition.
