Parmigiani Kalpa Hemispheres at SIHH

Wednesday, 09 April 2008

Parmigiani Fleurier has created the Kalpa Hemispheres, a new collection dedicated to travel.
Inspired by the odyssey of the outstanding sailor Bernard Stamm, with his insatiable hunger for round-the-world races and extraordinary challenges, the Kalpa Hemispheres collection opens up a boundless horizon, carrying within it the magic of the high seas

The Kalpa Hemispheres frees itself from the complexity of the mechanical train wheels it contains, offering a complete, easy-to-use second time zone display with hour and minute hands. The 2nd time zone is set to the minute, a rare technical feat in watchmaking. A considerable number of destinations with half-hour or three-quarter hour (*) offsets from GMT are now completely synchronised with the local time. To enable travellers to change the local time or destination time at any moment, the settings of the two time displays (hour and minute hands) are completely independent of each other.
