I expected to debut the Parmigiani Minute Rattrapante here 2 weeks ago
But thanks to FedEx, and the box being stolen from the outbound terminal on the East Coast, the waiting game continues. It was the very first piece sent to the United States so far. If you see it listed somewhere, proceed very carefully. Once the replacem...
It will be my first PF watch.
I ticks all the MC boxes, and I expressed my interest the moment I saw it.
I fully expect it will be the start of a new brand for me.
In many ways, they excite me like UN did from 2003-2012 +/-. Intuitive innovation, I see a lot of that from Parmigiani lately.
Indeed. I don't use GMTs, so the timer function is much better for me.
And the "sand" colored dial, I adore it!
Yes Sir, that is a beauty! I struggle with the date window on many PF watches
The GMT & Minute Rattrapante fully solve that issue!
It was stolen from a Fedex site (while still being processed by them)? Wow.
Looking forward to you receiving yours as PF has been making quite an impression.
Yes. It is an inside job. Multiple packages stolen in the same terminal in the past 2 months from the same sender.
Scanned at the terminal 90 minutes after pickup at the store, and then gone baby gone. The value lost is over 200k. Gotta catch this guy. I'm quite certain such a miserable human being with have 0 idea on what the Minute Rattrapante is or what it does.
Obviously not to catch the guy yet
But this is not hard. They need to send through some dumby shipments with electronic tracking devices. Of course, this is the United States 2024. If they catch the guy who has now stolen over $200,000 in goods, would he even serve any time? Doubtful.
Thank you dear Friend.
I have been very patient for this one. It was initially end of September, then October... and finally, just ahead of Parmigiani's new price increase on 2/1/24. But I think it will be most worth the wait. This brand builds a great timepiece.
Yeah -I’m struggling with FedEx in Hawaii
Watch has been here since last Saturday- can’t get it delivered No flexibility - in the eighties used them all the time -held stuff -moved stuff around -now you’re talking to a machine! Oooh -sounding like an old guy -Witch I am. Also -nice piece -congrat...
Well, hopefully yours is just waiting to be delivered.
This one was completely stolen. Such a rare watch at this point, figures it is this instead of something more available.
Very good video with Guido Terreni, CEO of Parmigiani Fleurier.
on Youtube with Monochrome Watches.
I have seen it, and really enjoy Guido's commentary.
My kind of CEO (based on the interviews I have seen).
Thanks amigo. I feel mostly for PF and the store.
Insurance will make them whole, but this is going to be a low production piece, and it sucks to have the very first one in the US go missing.
A gigantic watch.
I am a big admirer of PF. Unfortunately I don't have any in my collection yet. The GMT Rattrapante would be my choice. At least a model without this date window that takes some getting used to. I hope you don't have to wait too long for the new delivery.
I have plotted a PF for some time now.
I'm sorry to say it, but a good number of their pieces have a deal breaker quality. Unnecessary dial text, a poor date placement, the background of a date disc color, etc. If not for these objections, I certainly would have already acquired one. This Minu...
Great catch my friend ! Looking forward to seeing it strapped on your wrist 😉
And yes fully agreed with all your comments about the evolution of PF, surely something to follow… You definitely made the right choice Michael it’s really a very cool and beautiful piece 👍
Thank you my Friend! I'm excited for it to arrive, especially since it really should have over 2 weeks ago.
As I just replied above to MTR, I have come very close to buying a Parmigiani, but could not get past 1 or 2 details on other models that really tempt me. This one is a very unique offering, IMO, and I look forward to having it.
A superb Parmigiani!
I hope your wait will soon be over. Shame to hear about the Fedex job. I hope they catch this guy soon! You can be sure to enjoy your Rattrappante double once you finally receive it 😁
Thanks Sir. It should be later this month.
The dealer has 2 sold behind me. Unfortunately, those buyers get bumped back too.
