Parmigiani Fleurier Toric Héritage Owner Review : Discreet, symbolic and legit

Parmigiani Toric Having worked for the brand, it was a very nice work experience and I decided to bring back a souvenir with me. This white gold Toric measures 38mm, blue sapphire cabochon, dragon enamel dial. Limited series of 10 pieces, this one being the 5th, not the best number, not the worst either. Enamel dial designed by Michel Parmigiani's daughter, case with just and perfect proportions, respecting the golden ratio. Lémania mechanism, therefore used mainly at Breguet now. No silicon, we are at the beginning of the 2000s when this collection appears. I bought this one in 2008, rarely worn, changed the hands at the factory, originally they were blued, and carefully preserved, this Parmigiani is an exclusive watch, dressy, for evening without excess. My 15.7 cm wrist is perfect for this kind of dimensions. The location of the Manufacture in Fleurier adds a significant dose of legitimacy when it comes to the link with China, a dial decorated with a Chinese dragon, Fleurier being the bridgehead for the trade of Swiss watches in China in the 19th century. A very rich history superbly described in Chapuis, la Montre Chinoise.
