I don't know, but can also serve as topping for pasta dishes?

[–] 3l33ter@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Imagine a Parmigiani and Spaghetti Scametti collab. Yum

[–] FancyFee66@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Aint this a type of powdered cheese?

[–] jstubs99@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Sounds like what Australians eat at a pub with a pint

[–] Edible_Cactus@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Do they make cheese too?

[–] Lonely-Elderberry@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They are the brand that spun off their in-house manufacturing division into Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier. One of the two manufacturers that produce movements for Richard Mille.

[–] just-the-pip@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Parmigiani is the Loro Piana of watchmaking. Some of the very best material and finishing around, they also quietly produce amazing stuff for other brands, while their own designs and marketing are still playing catch-up.

[–] 2723brad2723@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I don't know. That sounds pretty cheesy to me

[–] Patient_Fox_6594@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

When this year did Parmigiani totally change its reputation?

[–] fs71625@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I don't know...seems kinda cheesy

[–] KxSolstice@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

If you like these, check out Spaghetti Scametti Watches — Parmesan-y’s cousin!

[–] ColourMeBoom@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Never seen their watches but I love their cheese.

[–] Miller412@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Good cheese. No cap

[–] dallierdilly@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I was at this event today too. They make REALLY beautiful watches. I think the company also makes parts (bracelets, clasps, etc) for other brands. I first heard of them at a watch shop in Montreal.

[–] rjgolds1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yep. Awesome watches. They have also supplied movements to other brands like AP and Richard Mille.

[–] c4rlm4nu@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Looks like another Spaghetti Scameti

[–] Altruistic_Fill1898@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Amazing watches, amazing prices!

[–] jayjayjones@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

More like chicken parmigiani

[–] PorkloinMaster@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They make great cheese.

[–] MrDagon007@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I find them as nice as patek or lange

[–] blobbysnorey@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, I have heard of them. They are which end. There are other high end brands you might get shocked by, especially since it is the Halloween season.

[–] phlamez92@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I definitely love their sandwiches. Veal Parmigiani is such a vibe

[–] NinjaOss@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think it's pronounced Par-mee-ze-an

[–] kidneytornado@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

High end horology, they have a sister brand, think it’s called pagani design

[–] truebump@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ummm…. Yes.

[–] snopro@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Looks pretty awesome

[–] WhorologyFan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

🎶 I always want more Parmigiani...

[–] tool6913ca@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They seem kinda... cheesy.

I'm sorry, I had to.

[–] arguix@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

search HODINKEE articles on, there are several very good

[–] garrettd43@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] goddamntree@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yep, it's an amazing brand.

Famous for the Tonda PF which helped the brand to bounce back, they have one of the best made integrated bracelets in the watch world IMO

They were also known for the Kalpa, these rectangular watches that were pretty cool too!

[–] Bestow5000@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Beautiful but overpriced watches. Independent brand. Mostly known because King Charles wore one.

Otherwise...not worth the money. Get another brand instead. Not sorry to say that.

[–] Appropriate_Mine@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Veal or chicken?

[–] beeritone@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I don't know, they seem kind of cheesy.

[–] NahanniWild@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Cavendish watch?

[–] KurtRussellsMullet@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I always preferred pecorino romano fleurier tbh

[–] old_shows@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, the PF Tonda is a deep cut among sports watch connoisseurs. It’s an expression of top tier watchmaking; something truly unique in a stale category. Still, the Czapek Antarctique S remains my favorite though I could see adding a Tonda after spending some years with the Antarctique.

[–] dodgeunhappiness@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It feels like an Italian knockoff. Very bad naming.

[–] chalky87@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] dodgeunhappiness@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I know. I read the other comments.

[–] ealker@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It’s named the same as a cheese. I’d never but it:D

[–] iVah1d@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Galet Square Regulateur is on my top 5.

[–] Dj_acclaim@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Probably costs a lot of bread(crumbs)

[–] chalky87@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

In the window it ranged from £10k - £40k but my understanding is they go way above that

[–] StrangleThings9@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They are haute horology. Hard for me to separate the name though because I too can’t help but thinking of the cheese. Honestly, this is bad, but sometimes when I see Parmigiani I forget for a split second and think it’s that joke brand from Ben’s Watch Club, Spaghetti Scametti. Then I snap to and realize it’s a dude’s last name and not a cheese.

[–] PeterPandaWhacker@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The name makes me think of cheese

[–] thuanjinkee@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

par-mee-zee-an

[–] Insert_name_User@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bro I love that cheese

[–] thewaldenpuddle@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I can’t wear a watch that would make me hungry all the time…..

[–] ossegossen@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

In my opinion they’re quite ugly all of them
