A living dream, the Toric line draws inspiration from the first timepiece designed by Michel Parmigiani in 1996. Launched two years later, in 1998, this model featured single or double stepped knurled bezels, javelin hands and often intricately guilloché dials. The specimen here offered is no exception and features some incredible details. Superb example of the innovative design of the Maison, the most distinguished trait is surely the minute repeating function, housed in an 18k pink gold case and activated by a sliding button on the side. Personification of Michel Parmigiani’s signature as a watchmaker, this timepiece achieves the most pleasing aesthetical design and proportion with a precious baguette diamond-set bezel. The black dial breaks the pattern of the whole configuration attracting with its dark color and the incredibly highly crafted guillochè dial. It is further embellished with applied 6 and 12 Arabic numbers and the counter for constant seconds at 9 o’clock. Exceptionally rare, with such finesse, the present example is well-preserved in excellent overall condition and further offered with the box and certificate of authenticity.
