To commemorate this moment, AWC has partnered with Project 8 and Parmigiani Fleurier to unveil a highly symbolic special edition based on the Tonda PF, elevated through thoughtful design and meaningful details.

At the heart of this anniversary edition lies the new Celestial Blue dial—a refined, elegant shade that evokes depth, serenity, and timelessness. The dial is deliberately restrained, staying true to the Tonda PF philosophy of quiet luxury, yet it carries a powerful statement: a single gold index positioned at 10 o’clock. This unique marker replaces the conventional uniformity of the hour indices and serves as a clear, poetic tribute to 10 years of Arab Watch Club—a subtle but unmistakable signature understood instantly by those who know.

Turning the watch over reveals where the emotional weight of the anniversary truly comes to life. The platinum rotor, already a hallmark of high horology, has been specially engraved with Arabic calligraphy reading “الذكرى العاشرة” (The Tenth Anniversary). Executed with elegance and balance, the calligraphy celebrates not only the milestone itself but also the cultural roots and regional pride that Arab Watch Club has championed since its inception. It is a reminder that this is not merely a limited watch—it is a story told in metal, movement, and meaning.

The collaboration itself is significant. Parmigiani Fleurier, revered for its artisanal integrity and purity of design, provides the perfect canvas. Project 8, known for translating collector culture into modern horological narratives, ensures that the execution resonates with today’s informed enthusiast.

Together with Arab Watch Club, the result is a watch that speaks to collectors who value discretion, depth, and authenticity over loud statements.

After ten years of shaping conversations, building bridges between cultures, and uniting collectors across the region and beyond, Arab Watch Club’s 10th Anniversary Tonda PF stands as a fitting tribute—one that honors the past, celebrates the present, and quietly looks toward the future.

The idea of this collaboration imitated when we first saw the release of the Sinn 556 Anniversary piece and we decided it is a perfect fit for our next summer edition. The watch size is perfect, small and classy; the MOP dial we have worked on is very unique as every watch would have its own shade.

So the adventure began early 2018, when we got in touch with the Sinn team with our proposed idea- initially we had a totally different dial colors in mind – an MOP more tending towards a pinkish shade then the one with settled for after over a month of back and forth with the manufacture designing the dial.

The aim was to produce a Limited edition of 50 watches for all club members with a very minimalistic design that is wearable in all occasions but also subtle and unique as most MOP dials ares. However , we decided to add a small twist to the dial at 6 o’clock where we wrote the name of our club in arabic as it appears on our logo – same font, same writing and same size.

The movement on this 556 is impressively finished and well taken care of by the brand; it is an ETA 2824-2, self winding mechanism with a special engraving of “Arab Watch Club” and the number of each watch out of 50 – the movement has also the second stop function , shock resistance and Anti-magnetism.

The case is a stainless steel case in 38.5mm with a satinized finishing – the dial is covered by a sapphire crystal glass with anti reflective coating on both sides. The transparent case back has also anti reflective coating on the interior. The pressure resistances is up to 20 bar.

The indices on the dial are coated with luminescent color and hour the hour and minute hands coated also. The case thickness is only 11mm and the watch weights 65 grammes without straps

As for the straps, we have had several options so we decided to let every collector decide on his own choice of colors and materials that fit his own taste.

The watches have been released in July 2018, however their delivery will be around September once everyone is back from summer break and factories operational again.

We are very thrilled of this collaboration as it has opened our eyes to many possibilities in the future in the non-swiss watchmaking world and the uniqueness and precision of these underrated brands.
