Introduced in 1996 as Michel Parmigiani’s first wristwatch design, it established many of the aesthetic principles that would come to define the manufacture: classical proportions, intricate decorative craftsmanship, and architectural details inspired by antiquity. Drawing particular inspiration from the geometry and ornamentation of ancient Greek and Roman architecture, the Toric offers a distinctive interpretation of the traditional round dress watch—one rooted in restoration, proportion, and artisanal finishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This Reference Matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Toric PF000069 is distinguished by its sophisticated interplay of texture, depth, and classical detailing. Its black anthracite guilloché dial creates a richly textured centre, contrasting beautifully with the silver Roman numeral chapter ring surrounding it. The result is a layered composition that rewards close inspection while retaining the formal clarity associated with traditional watchmaking. A discreet date display introduces everyday functionality without overwhelming the dial’s carefully considered architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white gold case further reinforces the understated character of the reference. Rather than relying on the warmth of yellow or rose gold, its cooler tone allows the anthracite dial and silver chapter ring to take visual precedence. The Toric’s characteristic case architecture provides another layer of refinement, reflecting Michel Parmigiani’s fascination with classical proportion and decorative motifs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowering the watch is the automatic Calibre 13301, offering approximately 38 hours of power reserve. Its self-winding construction complements the practical nature of the date-equipped Toric while providing the mechanical refinement expected from Parmigiani Fleurier’s approach to traditional haute horlogerie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn the Wrist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt 40 mm, the Toric PF000069 offers a more substantial interpretation of the classical dress watch without losing its inherent elegance. The 18K white gold case provides reassuring precious-metal weight while remaining visually discreet, and the black anthracite dial gives the watch a strong but sophisticated presence. Paired with a black leather strap and matching 18K white gold pin buckle, the overall presentation is restrained and monochromatic, allowing the guilloché work and architectural details to reveal themselves gradually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition \u0026amp; Transparency\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis example features a 40 mm case crafted from 18K white gold, paired with a black anthracite guilloché dial featuring a contrasting silver Roman numeral chapter ring and date display. It is powered by the automatic Calibre 13301, offering approximately 38 hours of power reserve, and is fitted to a black leather strap with an 18K white gold pin buckle. Particular attention should be given to preservation of the case geometry and decorative detailing, condition of the guilloché dial and chapter ring, movement and date functionality, strap and buckle condition, and overall set completeness—communicated strictly on verified information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy It Belongs in a Collection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Toric PF000069 appeals to collectors who appreciate independent watchmaking with a strong connection to traditional decorative arts. As the collection that established Michel Parmigiani’s design language, the Toric carries particular significance within the history of Parmigiani Fleurier. Its combination of white gold, an intricately guilloché anthracite dial, Roman numerals, and restrained proportions gives it a character quite distinct from more conventional Swiss dress watches. Within a thoughtfully curated collection, it represents an elegant and comparatively uncommon expression of late-twentieth-century haute horlogerie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClosing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Parmigiani Fleurier Toric PF000069 is a sophisticated expression of Michel Parmigiani’s classical design philosophy. Combining its beautifully proportioned 18K white gold case, richly textured black anthracite guilloché dial, elegant Roman numeral chapter ring, and automatic Calibre 13301, it captures the qualities that make the Toric so distinctive: architectural refinement, traditional craftsmanship, and a quietly individual approach to fine watchmaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K White Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Anthracite Guilloché Dial with Silver Roman Numeral Chapter Ring and Date Display\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Leather Strap with 18K White Gold Pin Buckle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Reserve:\u003c\/strong\u003e 38 Hours\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automatic (Calibre 13301)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eShipments are delivered under Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU) terms, with duties and taxes payable by the recipient.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e","brand":"TimeTells","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53960162574636,"sku":null,"price":29888.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0919\/4982\/6348\/files\/PF000069-3305-1.jpg?v=1787552703","url":"https:\/\/www.timetells.shop\/products\/parmigiani-fleurier-toric-pf000069-black-dial","provider":"TimeTells","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
