Description

Beyond setting a new thinness record, the new Octo Finissimo Ultra Tourbillon stands as a manifesto. By integrating a skeleton tourbillon into the movement of a watch with a total thickness of just 1.85 mm, the Roman jeweller’s Swiss watchmaking division demonstrates its horological expertise with watchmaking’s most emblematic complication.

Skeletonisation or the art of sculpting transparency: Today, Bvlgari has taken skeletonisation to the next level on the new Octo Finissimo Ultra Tourbillon – to maximise light diffusion throughout the movement. This approach creates striking contrasts through contemporary decorative techniques applied to key visible components.

A 40 mm case with sandblasted titanium lugs, bezel and middle case. Tungsten carbide main plate. Winding and time-setting wheels in stainless steel with circular brush finishing. Steel ratchet with circular brush finishing engraved with a geometric decoration. Sandblasted titanium bracelet with fully integrated folding buckle, 1.50 mm thin. Hour and minute display counter in sandblasted brass with anthracite DLC coating, polished brass hands with rhodium coating. BVF 900 manual winding tourbillon mechanical ultra-thin movement.

Supplied by the brand to the GPHG for its entry.
