The Parmigiani Collection…….








The Transforma!.......transform your watch from a pocket watch to a wrist watch.






A housing ( another case) to fit the watch and you have a pocket watch



Two spring loaded pins makes the transformation to a wrist watch so easy..



There you have it..



A very innovative design indeed!
