Lot Essay

Michel Parmigiani is among the top watchmakers of his generation. An independent watchmaker who cut his teeth restoring complicated pocketwatches and 18th century automatons, he set up his eponymous watch brand in 1996 and is one of the few vertically integrated watch companies in the industry today.

This particular timepiece, a bonafide horological heavyweight, was introduced in 2021 to mark the brand’s 25th anniversary. It was based on the GPHG award-winning Parmigiani Tonda Chronor Anniversaire that was incidentally launched to mark the brand’s 15th anniversary. This chronograph featured the maison’s first integrated chronograph movement, hand-finished and crafted in rose gold.

The manual-winding chronograph has a split-seconds function and an impressive 65 hours of power reserve. It remains among the few high-beat chronograph movements (the balance wheel oscillates at 36,000 vph allowing for 1/10th of a second elapsed time measurements) with rattrapante function. The movement, visible thanks to a sapphire crystal caseback has open-worked bridges made from 18k rose gold, twin column wheels and a vertical clutch.

Not every manufacturer today is capable of producing an integrated high-beat chronograph movement, let alone one with a rattrapante function. This particular timepiece, one of only 25 pieces produced, has a platinum dial that’s framed by an all platinum case and bracelet and is offered in like-new condition from the original owner.
