Thanks, Patrick. Although I'm definitely missing one of the pins I do have the second spring bar, it's just not in the photo. I'm going to contact the PF retailer to ask what they can order the needed parts.

Hoping a fellow Parmigiani owner will be able to answer my questions...
I recently purchased this Tonda Metrographe after wanting one since they were released and I'm very happy with my purchase. It's currently on an aftermarket leather strap and although I like the way this looks, it also came with the original bracelet and ...

I’ve removed/replaced many bracelets in my role as a small-time watch repairman, and they are almost always difficult to manage, even when you have all the parts and tools and know what you are doing. Your description of the process of attaching the brace...

Good idea!
Yes, email them a photo of what you have and ask what needs to be ordered.

If you got her name, I'm sure a number of guys here would like to meet such a rare individual... MIke

I had lost a spring bar while changing the bracelet of a JLC Master Series watch. I quickly explained this to her, sheepishly as I was embarassed. She asked me to give her the bracelet and the remaining spring bar. I complied. She went to the back and fou...
