"The calendar is a man-made system designed to be in balance with the seasons and phases of our planet. The rotation of the Earth around the sun imposes these on us, and we record them with the respect of an enthralled observer. The annual calendar and its moon phase reflect the cosmic order that governs us."
Michel Parmigiani
Automatic & retrograde annual calendar movement
Using the PF331 automatic movement as a base, Parmigiani Fleurier developed the calibre PF339, equipped with an additional module dedicated to the Retrograde Annual Calendar and its precision moon phase. The unique feature of this automatic movement, with a power reserve of 50 hours, is its series-mounted double barrel. This stabilises the distribution of energy so that it is transmitted to the regulator at a constant level. The bridges are hand-bevelled and decorated with Côtes de Genève, displaying exemplary craftsmanship down to the smallest details - even those that remain hidden.
