A Closer Look: Parmigiani Tonda PF Sport Chronograph Sandstone

Parmigiani Fleurier continues to define the art of refined sportiness with its latest rendition of the Tonda PF Sport Chronograph — now available in a rich 18-karat rose gold case paired with an elegant sandstone-toned dial and Tufo-colored rubber strap. In staying true to its philosophy of pairing mechanical excellence with minimalist elegance, Parmigiani once again strikes a balance between precision engineering and timeless beauty.

The Tonda PF Sport Chronograph Sandstone is purpose-built with crisp lines, slim lugs, and a clean dial layout to create an aesthetic of quiet luxury — one that resonates with those who favor restraint over flash. The new colorway, anchored in warm rose gold and soft sandstone hues, is enriched with a dial adorned with the maison’s distinctive Triangular Nail guilloché motif. Sand-colored subdials deepen the visual harmony, seamlessly blending technical function with tonal beauty.

Adding to its distinctive look is the Tufo rubber strap — a key feature. Inspired by the pale volcanic stone that characterizes much of the Mediterranean coastline, Tufo has a Cordura-like texture that adds visual dimension and sophistication.

Powering the watch is the COSC-certified PF070 movement, an automatic chronograph beating at 36,000 vibrations per hour (5 Hz) for supreme accuracy in short-time measurement. With a 65-hour power reserve, column wheel architecture, and a 22-karat rose gold openworked oscillating weight, the movement is a feat of precision and beauty. The transparent caseback offers a glimpse into the expertly decorated bridges, each satin-finished and bevelled to perfection. The Tonda PF Sport Chronograph in rose gold and sandstone  retails for $53,100.
