Founder – Michel Parmigiani

Parmigiani Fleurier was founded by Michel Parmigiani, a master watchmaker and restoration expert widely regarded as one of the greatest horological conservators of modern times. Before establishing his brand, he gained international recognition for restoring rare and historically significant timepieces, including antique clocks and complicated watches. His deep understanding of traditional watchmaking techniques inspired him to create his own manufacture, where he could apply classical craftsmanship while developing innovative modern movements. Michel Parmigiani’s philosophy emphasizes harmony, proportion, and mechanical beauty, values that remain at the core of the brand today.
