The Tonda PF, which debuted in 2021, is a launch ticket put forward by Parmigiani Fleurier (hereinafter Parmigiani) to participate in the luxury sports watch war. It is easy to see it as a newly designed watch according to the grammar of sports fake watches these days, such as introducing an all-in-one bracelet that naturally connects to the case with the existing Tonda as a base. The main products range from the basic Tonda PF Micro Rotor to the Tonda PF Chronograph, Tonda PF Annual Calendar, Tonda PF Split Second Chronograph, Tonda PF Tourbillon, and last year’s Tonda PF GMT Rattrapante. I have. This year, we welcomed Tonda PF Minute Rattrapante as a new member.
Tonda PF Minute Rattrapante has a similar concept to its predecessor, Tonda PF GMT Rattrapante, just like the name ‘Ratrapante’. A rattrapante could be mistaken for a split second chronograph, but this watch does not have a chronograph function. In related products, rattrapante refers to a split mechanism. The Tonda PF Minute Rattrapante has rose gold hands nestled beneath a rhodium-plated minute hand like the hands of a split second chronograph. Normally, the two hands move as one, so the rose gold hands are invisible. When you press the push button on the left side of the case, the rose gold hand finally emerges from the shadow of the minute hand and gives off its presence. Press the push button at 8 o’clock to move in 5-minute increments, and push the push button at 10 o’clock to move in 1-minute increments. The corresponding hand is fixed in position by operation of the push button, and the minute hand advances towards it. Users can utilize it as a countdown function. For example, if you want to cook 3-minute curry, press the 10 o’clock push button 3 times. When the measurement is complete, press the rose gold push button embedded in the crown and the needle flies out quickly to hide behind the minute hand. The accompaniment of the two needles will begin again. According to Parmigiani, this mechanism was conceived with the idea that it would be nice to incorporate a rotating bezel that measures a certain amount of time in a diver’s replica watches uk as a function of the movement.
The dial can be found with any phrase except for a simple logo that has been replaced with the brand initials. In the early days of Tonda PF, this minimalism seemed awkward, but now it seems to be taking its place. The surface of the dial painted in sand gray color is densely engraved with the Grain d’Orge (barley grain) pattern as before.
The case is made of stainless steel and the distinctive bezel with engraved knurl is made of platinum. The size is 40mm in diameter and 10.7mm in thickness, boasting an ideal proportion. Water resistance is 60m. The push button on the left side of the case is specially designed with the same teardrop shape to match the iconic Tear Drop lugs.
The movement revealed through the sapphire crystal case back is the automatic in-house caliber PF052. A split mechanism that can be used as a countdown has been added to the base of the PF701 used in the Tonda PF micro rotor. Unlike full rotors, micro-rotors do not interfere with the movement enjoyment. The surface of the rose gold rotor is engraved with the same Grande d’Orge pattern as the dial. The main specs are the same as the base. The frequency of vibrations per hour is 21,600 vph (3 Hz), and the power reserve is about 48 hours.
The bracelet that naturally leads to the case has a slightly different grain from the one-piece type of other brands. In the case of the case, the bracelet is connected to the lug, which has an ambiguous border with the case, whereas the Tonda PF mounts the bracelet on the lug. Nevertheless, the secret to the bracelet’s one-piece look lies in its surface treatment. Looking at both side links, the inner side is brushed the same as the center link and the outer side is polished. The glossy part naturally connects to the rug, and the case and bracelet seem to be connected as one.
The price of the Tonda PF Minute Rattrapante is CHF 27,000. It is about 40 million won in Korean currency.
