Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Split Seconds Rose Gold Limited Edition Watch PMG-122

Limited Edition of 30 Pieces. Parmigiani Fleurier Watch Tonda PF Split Seconds Chronograph Rose Gold Limited Edition PFH916-2010002-200182. Split seconds chronographs represent the best of this complication category. Designed to measure intermediate (split) times, they are equipped with two superimposed chronograph hands. Activating the 1 o’clock pusher makes the two hands turn together. Pressing the 4 o'clock pusher stops the upper hand while the lower hand continues running. Another press at 4 o'clock brings the upper hand back to the second one in a move that has led to the French term “rattrapante” (“catch up”) for this function. The split time is measured at the first stop. This highly sophisticated function is one of the most difficult complications to create, on a par with a tourbillon or a minute repeater.
