From April 1 to 7, a record 60 brands showcased their latest innovations to more than 55,000 attendees. Among the top highlights was Parmigiani Fleurier who revealed captivating additions to its signature Tonda PF and Toric collections.
Parmigiani Fleurier debuted a striking array of timepieces that reflect the brand’s devotion to refined aesthetics and mechanical ingenuity. Highlights included the Tonda PF GMT Rattrapante Verzasca with its vivid green dial inspired by the Swiss valley, the minimalist Chronograph No Date in Mineral Blue, and the ultra-thin Skeleton in Slate Green—limited to just 50 pieces. Also featured were the bold new Tonda PF Sport Chronographs in Milano Blue and London Grey, and elegant additions to the Toric collection, including two new Quantième Perpétuel models. Together, the lineup showcases Parmigiani’s balance of heritage craftsmanship and modern design
Tonda PF Automatic 36 mm Stone Blue
Leading up to Watches and Wonders Geneva, Parmigiani Fleurier introduced a new elegant addition to its lineup: the Tonda PF Automatic 36mm in Stone Blue. This smaller-sized timepiece captured immediate attention with its serene dial hue—a soft, sandblasted blue that changes subtly with the light, adding both calm and complexity to its minimalist design.
Crafted in polished stainless steel, the watch retains the refined aesthetic and signature platinum knurled bezel that defines the Tonda PF collection, while catering to collectors who appreciate compact proportions and unisex versatility. With its slim profile and integrated bracelet, the 36mm Stone Blue extends the quiet luxury ethos of Parmigiani Fleurier to a wider audience, making it a perfect prelude to the brand’s latest releases unveiled in Geneva.
Tonda PF GMT Rattrapante Verzasca
One of the standout releases from Parmigiani Fleurier at Watches and Wonders Geneva 2025 is the GMT Rattrapante Verzasca, a visually captivating timepiece named after the crystalline river in Switzerland’s Verzasca Valley. The rich green hue of the dial is directly inspired by the river’s famously vivid waters, capturing a natural brilliance that shifts with the light.
Framed in polished stainless steel and measuring 40mm, the GMT Rattrapante features Parmigiani’s patented dual-time complication, allowing the home time zone hand to return seamlessly beneath the local hour hand when not in use. Its refined hand-knurled bezel, minimalist indices, and understated elegance make it both a technical and aesthetic triumph, continuing the Tonda PF collection’s commitment to innovation through subtle sophistication.
Tonda PF Chronograph No Date 40mm Mineral Blue
The first chronograph addition debuted at Watches and Wonders omits the Date window commonly seen on the Tonda PF Chronograph, bringing the focus to the symmetry of the trio of sub-dials and cool blue hue of the signature Grain d’Orge hand-guilloché dial. The Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Chronograph No Date 40mm Mineral Blue is a study in restraint and refinement, designed for those who appreciate horological purity.
Housed in a 40mm stainless steel case with a platinum 950 knurled bezel, the watch offers both understated luxury and a comfortable fit suited to everyday wear or formal settings. More than just a precision chronograph, the Tonda PF Chronograph No Date captures the essence of time itself: the forward force of Chronos, and the introspective pause of Kairo.
Tonda PF Sport Chronograph: Milano Blue & London Grey
Parmigiani Fleurier continues to push the boundaries of modern luxury with the latest release of the Tonda PF Sport Chronograph, now available in two striking dial colors: Milano Blue and London Grey. Housed in a bold 42.5mm case crafted entirely from Ultra-Cermet—a cutting-edge material that merges ceramic’s scratch resistance with metal’s lightweight feel—this chronograph exudes refined athleticism.
Its anthracite-toned case catches the light with a subtle satin-polished finish, while the Blackor-treated dial, made from a 9-carat gold-nickel alloy, adds visual depth with its unique grey-black tone. Each case is a feat of engineering, assembled from 72 meticulously crafted components over the course of a full day, embodying Parmigiani Fleurier’s dedication to uncompromising craftsmanship.
Powering the Tonda PF Sport Chronograph is the high-frequency COSC-certified PF070 movement, an integrated chronograph caliber beating at 5 Hz for superior precision. This robust engine delivers a 65-hour power reserve and features a column wheel mechanism for smooth operation. The sapphire case back reveals a 22-carat rose gold skeletonized rotor, elegantly shaped to echo the steering wheel of the Ferrari 250 GTO—a fitting tribute to mechanical excellence.
A seamlessly integrated rubber strap completes the look, offering comfort and a contemporary sport-luxury appeal. Whether in the vivid Milano Blue or the sleek London Grey, this timepiece elevates the notion of a modern chronograph with both technical brilliance and visual distinction.
Tonda PF Skeleton Slate Green
Rounding out the new Tonda PF collection is the latest rendition of the Tonda PF Skeleton. Limited to only 50 pieces, this stainless steel marvel transforms the concept of transparency into a bold design statement. Its Slate Green dial, influenced by Le Corbusier’s palette, plays with light and depth, revealing the elegant complexity of the openworked PF777 caliber beneath.
The movement’s hand-beveled bridges, satin-finished steel components, and open barrel offer a mesmerizing view of the mainspring’s rhythmic tension and release. Suspended indices and skeletonized delta-shaped hands float above the dial, maintaining legibility while enhancing the piece’s striking visual architecture. Water-resistant to 100 meters, the Tonda PF Skeleton in Slate Green balances everyday durability with elevated design. It’s not just a watch, it’s a celebration of open-worked horology at its utmost level.
Toric Quantième Perpétuel: RG Golden Hour & Morning Blue
Finally, Parmigiani Fleurier also expanded its esteemed Toric Collection with the introduction of two new pieces: the Quantième Perpétuel, available in Morning Blue and Golden Hour. These exquisitely crafted timepieces reinterpret the perpetual calendar with understated elegance and mechanical sophistication. Driven by the PF733 automatic caliber, each watch presents a flawlessly integrated calendar system, displaying day, date, month, and leap year without disturbing the symmetry of the dial.
The Morning Blue0 features a polished platinum 950 case paired with a silvery grey alligator strap, while the Golden Hour edition is housed in warm 18k rose gold, matched with a cerulean-hued grey strap—both capturing different expressions of time through their tonal palettes.
Measuring 40.6mm in diameter and just 10.9mm thick, the case architecture is a study in quiet luxury. The signature fluted bezel is meticulously hand-finished, framing a hand-grained dial adorned with rhodium-plated 18ct gold appliques. Alpha-shaped hands glide effortlessly across the surface, reinforcing the clean readability that defines Parmigiani’s perpetual calendar design.
The sapphire case back reveals the finely finished movement and features a cabochon-set crown, adding a subtle flourish. With 60 hours of power reserve and 30 meters of water resistance, the Tonda PF Quantième Perpétuel isn’t just a showcase of horological excellence—it’s a poetic reminder that time, when carefully crafted, becomes eternal.
THE FOUNDATION OF THE TONDA PF COLLECTION
Originally introduced in 2021, the Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Collection marked a significant evolution in the brand’s design philosophy, blending minimalist aesthetics with intricate craftsmanship. This collection debuted with models featuring finely guilloché dials, elegantly slim cases, and integrated bracelets, embodying a refined approach to luxury sports watches.
The most notable example from this hallmark collection is the Tonda PF Micro-Rotor. This original masterpiece features a captivating grey guilloché dial paired with an impeccably finished platinum and stainless steel case, embodying a perfect fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern minimalism.
The Tonda PF Micro-Rotor is a masterclass in sleek engineering. At just 7.8 mm thick on the wrist, it owes its ultra-slim profile to a clever design choice: a full platinum micro-rotor tucked inside the movement instead of on top. The result is both technically impressive and effortlessly wearable. With only hours, minutes, and a color-matched date window, the dial stays clean and consistent, making this piece a timeless refined go-to for everyday wear.
DIVE DEEPER INTO THE TORIC COLLECTION
The Toric collection holds a distinguished place in Parmigiani Fleurier’s history as the origin point of the brand’s journey into haute horlogerie. In 1996, master watchmaker Michel Parmigiani debuted the very first timepiece under his newly founded maison: the Toric QP Retrograde. Rooted in classical architecture and designed with his deep reverence for balance and proportion, the Toric line established the foundation of Parmigiani’s aesthetic and technical identity. When Guido Terreni took the helm as CEO in 2921, he looked to this legacy and reimagined it for a new era of collectors. Last year the Toric collection relaunched with three core pieces that celebrate the brand’s devotion to dress watch elegance while introducing fresh dimensions of refinement.
The reborn Toric Petite Seconde models deliver a purist’s vision of mechanical beauty in two dial and case options. The first in 18k rose gold with a sand-colored “chevé” gold dial, the other in platinum with a celadon green gold dial—each dial subtly domed and luminous in its restraint. Powering both is the manual-winding PF780 movement, a visual marvel with three rose gold bridges forming a clean, architectural layout that puts the regulating organ and dual barrels on full display. The finishing—Côtes de Fleurier on the bridges paired with a sandblasted main plate—fuses traditional craftsmanship with modern minimalism. These pieces represent more than a return; they are a redefinition of what a dress watch can be in the language of Parmigiani Fleurier.
Meanwhile, the limited edition Toric Chronograph Rattrapante in rose gold stands as a pinnacle of both horological complexity and stylistic purity. Housing one of the most sophisticated complications in watchmaking, the split-seconds chronograph, this timepiece is remarkably discreet in its presentation. The case’s gentle curvature, seamless integration of the pushers, and refined Nubuck strap create an almost sculptural impression—fluid and balanced. But beyond the technical prowess, it is the restraint and poise of the design that elevate this chronograph into the realm of contemporary artistry. Limited to just 30 pieces, it’s an essential addition for collectors who appreciate mechanical brilliance and subtle sophistication.
