Parmigiani Fleurier Skeletonized Wristwatch

About this reference

The Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda 1950 Skeleton in 18k pink gold (Reference PFC280-1000101-HA1241) was introduced around 2015 and remains a core representation of the brand’s ultra-thin aesthetic. Collectors value this reference for the Calibre PF707, an in-house automatic movement measuring only 2.6mm thick, achieved through an off-centered platinum micro-rotor. The skeletonization process involves extensive hand-chamfering of the bridges, which are visible through a clear sapphire dial that maintains legibility via a peripheral minute track and suspended hour markers. The 39mm case features the brand’s signature teardrop lugs and a slim profile of 7.8mm. On the secondary market, this model typically trades between $22,000 and $30,000 depending on condition and provenance. A notable production detail is the movement’s finish, which utilizes a frosted texture on the mainplate rather than traditional Geneva stripes to enhance the visual depth of the open-worked architecture.
