BULGARI’s new Octo Velocissimo is an ultimate urban watch made for strong personalities. This technically oriented thoroughbred creation also displays uncommon style. It wears the face of a chronograph made in pure classic watchmaking tradition. Three counters arranged in a “V” balance the watch face: minutes at 3 o’clock, hours at 6 o’clock, and seconds at 9 o’clock.
The hours and minutes displays are supplemented by a central sweep seconds hand and a date window between 4 and 5 o’clock. All of this information is harmoniously positioned on an elegant hand-polished and lacquered black dial.
Available in 18k pink gold or solid stainless steel versions, this timepiece houses the exceptional new Velocissimo calibre, an integrated high-frequency chronograph movement (36,000 vibrations/hour) equipped with a column wheel, silicon escapement, and automatic winding.
It has a 50-hour power reserve. Octo Velocissimo Chronograph is offered in three versions: an 18K pink gold case on an alligator strap, and solid steel cases on an alligator strap or a steel bracelet.
