Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda METROPOLITAINE, User Manual

The Watchmaking Hub

Parmigiani Fleurier chose industrial independence very early on in its history. This provides 
the freedom to practise cutting-edge watchmaking, versatile and technically advanced, 
enabling creativity to be expressed without limitations. 

In just a few years, a manufacture was set up with the aim of mastering all the components 
of a watch. The dials and their meticulous decorations; the cases in their most complex 
designs; but also the heart of the watch, the regulating organ and its balance-spring, 
and each of the tiny screws and gears, barely visible to the naked eye, which form the 
movement. 

In the centre for industrial craftsmanship, designers rub shoulders with engineers, and 
artisans work side-by-side with high-end watchmakers. Behind every single watch, more 
than 50 professions are working together in the Swiss Jura region, using the history of this 
centre of expertise to revive the art of watchmaking, day after day. 

Through this watchmaking centre, the values dear to Michel Parmigiani are respected – 
craftsmanship, technical skill, manual dexterity, and meticulous attention devoted to each 
and every detail.
