The house

Parmigiani Fleurier is a Swiss watchmaking brand based in Fleurier. Its own summary dates the house to 1996 and names Michel Parmigiani as founder, while another record lists 1975. The Sandoz Family Foundation owns it today.

The record identifies watches as its product and names the Bugatti 370, produced in 2006.

What it is

Parmigiani Fleurier is headquartered in Fleurier, Switzerland. The record describes it as a Swiss luxury watchmaking brand founded by Michel Parmigiani, with two different founding years listed: 1996 in the summary and 1975 in a separate field.

What is named

The record identifies watches as the product. It names the Bugatti 370, a driving watch produced in 2006, but gives no case size, water rating, movement specification or other wrist dimensions.

Before you buy

What stands out

What to check
