Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti Type 370

About this reference

The Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti Type 370 reference PF008221 in 18k white gold was introduced around 2004 as part of a limited production run that concluded by 2010. Collectors target this reference for its transverse manual-wind Calibre 331, which utilizes a pillar-based architecture arranged on a horizontal axis to mimic a car engine. The 18k white gold case features a wedge-shaped profile designed for legibility while driving, with the dial positioned on the side of the wrist. This specific reference is limited to 150 pieces and includes six sapphire crystals providing views of the movement’s internal gear trains. On the secondary market, this model typically trades in the $40,000 to $70,000 range depending on condition and provenance. A notable production detail is the starter pen tool required to set the time and wind the movement via the case back.
