Parmigiani world premiere Haute Horlogerie: A unique homage to the hegirian Calendar

Never before in the history of watchmaking has a continuous calendar using a Hegirian thirty-year algorithm been invented by a Swiss Haute Horlogerie brand. The only one of its kind in the world and achieved after many years of research, the Parmigiani clock indicates the time over a lunar cycle lasting 30 years, alternating the 19 normal years with 354 days with 11 leap years with 355 days. An outstanding technical accomplishment created in Parmigiani's own workshops, this an absolute world premiere. Requiring no intervention from the user, the thirty-year continuous calendar automatically adapts itself to the lunar cycle.

SIHH 2011 News Extra flat Tourbillon: The Richard Mille RM 017 at the SIHH

The RM 017 Tourbillon represents a new technical achievement, characterised by a movement baseplate made of titanium, with black PVD coating ; a function indicator specific to Richard Mille, and a safety system with blocking mechanism on the barrel. This new process avoids the spring being overloaded during rewinding. It eliminates the risk of knocking the escapement and prevents the watch from running too fast.
