Prior to SIHH 2014 I previewed the Parmigiani Bugatti Aerolithe Flyback Chronograph watch. In discussing Parmigiani's latest Bugatti partnership timepiece I was overall impressed with the design and features that were remarkably sober and blended a nice masculine design with a successful combination of both Parmigiani and Bugatti brand DNA. Now that I've had some hands-on time with the piece I have to say that this is one of my all-time favorite Parmigiani timepieces.
Compare the Parmigiani Bugatti Aerolithe Chronograph with the previous and much more high-endParmigiani Bugatti Super Sport (hands-on here from 2010). You can see that while both of the watches celebrate the brand's relationship with Bugatti, the difference in theme between the watches is night and day. While the Super Sport is a much more exotic and high-end model, the Bugatti Aerolithe is meant to incorporate some exotic Bugatti elements, but also be the type of watch you could easily wear on a regular basis. It also fits in as a flagship model (even though there are differences in the case and movement) to the also new for 2014 Parmigiani Metrographe collection of men's watches that fits the same foundational design.
