Description:
Everyone loves a parade. And even though this Parade doesn't feature a marching band, clowns on stilts, or Shriners in miniature cars, it still manages to put a smile on my face.
There's a lot to like about this little Royal. It has a solid metal case, a taught and concise type action, and its DNA ties it to the equally impressive Futura 800 and FP models.
There's something else: Its fez-red paint gives it a friendly and extroverted character that could only be improved upon by the addition of a gold-coloured tassel to its carriage.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Parade on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Parade By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
