Holdemchamp1225's post highlights the Parmigiani Fleurier Transforma Rivage, a watch he believes is significantly undervalued in the luxury market. He champions Parmigiani as a true manufacture, on par with industry giants, and questions why their exceptional craftsmanship and independent ownership structure haven't translated into broader recognition. This article delves into the unique design and market position of Parmigiani Fleurier through the lens of a passionate collector.

to my surprise I saw this all by it's lonesome. The strange thing is that it fit perfectly into the outer carriage and strap I was wearing. Guess it was meant to be πŸ˜πŸ˜‰.

All kidding aside, I have no idea why Parmigiani does not get the recognition they rightfully deserve. They are a true manufacturer in every sense of the word just like JLC, Moser, etc...and they happen to make movements for Richard Mille and others.

They also belong to a foundation (trust), like Rolex, which is owned by the Sandoz family so maybe they just need to focus more on the marketing side πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Regardless, I am a fan 😁

Regarding Parmigiani , I have no idea this is all about passion, she failed to arouse passion, desire maybe a lack of marketing.

thin gold watches on the planet. My experience is that they also try very hard to make sure you are happy with your purchase.

I could see this watch getting a lot of use as a desk clock as well.
