BVLGARI Octo Finissimo (S) Chronograph GMT. Thin, thinner, thinnest…

@Bulgari

With this 4K-video we present you the new Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Chronograph GMT Titanium (case thickness 6,9 mm) and the new Bvlgari Octo Finissimo S Chronograph GMT (case thickness 8,75 mm). Both chronographs are ultra-thin and as we think simply beautiful. The watches are powered by the automatic Bvlgari in-house, ultra-thin caliber BVL 318 with a peripheral rotor (total thickness only 3,3 mm!!)

The Bvlgari Octo Finissimo was a rule breaker from the moment it was presented in 2014. Since then it has continued to redefine the boundaries of style and modernity with every new edition. The Bvlgari Octo Finissimo is a bold alternative to the established codes of traditional men’s timepieces, it is set apart by its eight-sided ultra-thin design, an intersection of circle and square inspired by Rome’s architectural wonders, which is rendered throughout the line in minimalist, mainly monochrome aesthetic.

In the watch industry we say: Every decade has its iconic design. Since 2014 it is the decade of the Bvlgari Octo Finissimo. No other watch-design presented since even comes close to it…

The element that separates the Bvlgari Octo Finissimo design from any other is its thinness, which set six (!) world records in six years, including in 2014 the world’s thinnest tourbillon, in 2016 the thinnest minute repeater, in 2017 the thinnest automatic watch, in 2018 the thinnest automatic tourbillon, in 2019 the thinnest automatic chronograph and in 2020 the thinnest tourbillon chronograph.

Bvlgari says: “This ia an unparalleled feat of avant-garde technology and Swiss expertise, its remarkable proportions are an extraordinary achievement of watchmaking innovation, a story of precision and determination powerful enough to shift the paradigm of men’s watchmaking. Octo Finissimo’s unconventional approach extends to its aesthetic and thoroughly modern design as well; the collection is known for its use of uncommon materials such as titanium and ceramic.”
