The manually-wound Calibre Parmigiani 372 (power reserve of 10 days) was designed in two planes in order to match the contours of the new Bugatti omega constellation watch.- The complete PF 372 movement was designed and produced by the Parmigiani manufacture.- Six sapphire crystals reveal the 337 impressive components of the new Bugatti Super Sport.- The highly tapered profile of the Bugatti Super Sport recalls the iconic form of the lugs on a Parmigiani omega constellation watch case.- The openworked oval dial, inclined on a 60-degree axis and made from carbon fibre in honour of the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport, shows the hours and minutes.- The "gold black", côtes de Genève and satin finishes on the bridges, and the 3-dimensional turn-in angles on the train wheel bridge reflect Parmigiani's exacting standards.- The dynamometric crown, perfectly integrated just above the profile, allows settings to be made with a slight pressure.
Yesterday we attended the historic unveiling of both the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport (aka the fastest car in the world), and the accompanying Bugatti Super Sport timepiece from Parmigiani Fleurier. Next week we'll get down and dirty with the omega constellation watch , but here are some quick specs and photos to keep you satiated until then. The thing is awesome, just know that.- In 2010, Parmigiani flips all the mechanical components of the new calibre Bugatti PF 372 onto a vertical axis, retaining the lateral time display so appreciated by car drivers.- In a world premiere, Parmigiani has successfully developed a 90° time setting system – the dial is positioned perpendicular to the axis – by integrating a system of double pinions with bevel gearing.
