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

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

Imagine a Parmigiani and Spaghetti Scametti collab. Yum

[–] FancyFee66@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Aint this a type of powdered cheese?

[–] jstubs99@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Sounds like what Australians eat at a pub with a pint

[–] Edible_Cactus@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Do they make cheese too?

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

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

[–] Patient_Fox_6594@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

When this year did Parmigiani totally change its reputation?

[–] fs71625@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I don't know...seems kinda cheesy

[–] KxSolstice@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] ColourMeBoom@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Never seen their watches but I love their cheese.

[–] Miller412@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Good cheese. No cap

[–] dallierdilly@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[–] c4rlm4nu@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Looks like another Spaghetti Scameti

[–] Altruistic_Fill1898@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Amazing watches, amazing prices!

[–] jayjayjones@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

More like chicken parmigiani

[–] PorkloinMaster@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

They make great cheese.

[–] MrDagon007@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I find them as nice as patek or lange

[–] blobbysnorey@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

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

[–] NinjaOss@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] kidneytornado@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] truebump@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Ummm…. Yes.

[–] snopro@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Looks pretty awesome

[–] WhorologyFan@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

🎶 I always want more Parmigiani...

[–] tool6913ca@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

They seem kinda... cheesy.

I'm sorry, I had to.

[–] arguix@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

search HODINKEE articles on, there are several very good

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

Veal or chicken?

[–] beeritone@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] NahanniWild@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Cavendish watch?

[–] KurtRussellsMullet@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I always preferred pecorino romano fleurier tbh

[–] old_shows@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago (1 children)

It feels like an Italian knockoff. Very bad naming.

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

I know. I read the other comments.

[–] ealker@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] iVah1d@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Galet Square Regulateur is on my top 5.

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

Probably costs a lot of bread(crumbs)

[–] chalky87@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] StrangleThings9@alien.top 1 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

The name makes me think of cheese

[–] thuanjinkee@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

par-mee-zee-an

[–] Insert_name_User@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Bro I love that cheese

[–] thewaldenpuddle@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] ossegossen@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

In my opinion they’re quite ugly all of them
