Founded in 1996 by the master restorer Michel Parmigiani, his eponymous brand was established with a focus on fine traditional craftsmanship. Michel Parmigiani had already earned a legendary reputation for restoring some of the world's most important clocks and automata. This profound expertise became the bedrock of the manufacture, which rapidly developed into a fully integrated entity, mastering every aspect of watchmaking, from movements to cases. Parmigiani Fleurier is celebrated for its elegant, often complex designs that pay homage to classicism while showcasing a flawless technical execution, rooted in its restoration heritage. The present Kalpa XL Tourbillon showcases Parmigiani’s mastery of the landmark complication, housed within a contemporary and unusual case design. Any collector of fine watchmaking with a modern twist should look no further than the present watch.
