Bulgari Octo Ultranero
The Octo watch is now reinvented in a highly contemporary and opulent black exterior.
More inspired than ever by the creative strength of Italian design, the iconic Octo watch with its unique, strongly structured case is now presented in a black exterior daring to flaunt an unexpected association of materials. Bulgari associates a black D.L.C. coating with pink gold in a highly diverse range of variations and possibilities. Depending on the version, clients can choose between an all-black watch in D.L.C.-coated steel fitted with a black rubber strap and subtly lit up only by pink gold hands and hour-markers, thus embodying the boldness of restraint; or the equally bold option of combining a black D.L.C.-coated case with a pink gold crown.
Octo Ultranero is presented right from its introduction with the world’s thinnest mechanical tourbillon movement, the Bulgari BVL 268 Finissimo calibre. The latter set a record at the time of its launch in 2014 that has remained unbroken ever since. The fabulous mechanical heart of the watch is revealed in its carriage visible at 6 o’clock on the black dial, accentuated by pink gold elements in the finishing of the flying tourbillon measuring a mere 1.95 mm thick.
All interpretations of the Octo Ultranero watch are endowed with the horological refinement of mechanical calibres from the Manufacture Bulgari, where they are assembled and finished by hand. Depending on his desires, inspirations and usage, the connoisseur will be able to choose a version with a 41mm diameter powered by the Solotempo BVL 193 calibre. Dedicated to the measurement and display of time, this twin-barrel movement has a 50-hour power reserve and focuses on ensuring the precision of the hours, minutes, seconds, and date indications.
For an even sportier touch, others may opt for the Octo Velocissimo Chronograph powered by Calibre BVL 328, one of the most efficient on the market and capable of capturing the flow of time to the nearest tenth of a second.
