In revisiting the Octo Finissimo silhouette, the Maison has introduced two new references dressed in CarbonGold — a blend of high-tech, matte-finished anthracite carbon with touches of gold. Arriving in a 40mm case size, both watches star a tonal dial accented with rose gold indices, subdials, and handset, all complete with a matching carbon bracelet.

Retailing for $26,800, the Octo Finissimo CarbonGold Automatic runs on the BVL 138 caliber. Meanwhile, the Octo Finissimo CarbonGold Perpetual Calendar is powered by the BVL 305 movement and has a price point of $89,000 USD.

Bulgari’s highly recognizable Serpenti women’s watch model just unfurled two new iterations. One version comes in an 18k white gold build, set with diamonds all over, complete with emerald eyes and a pavé-set diamond dial. Composed of 18k rose gold with black-lacquered scales, the other variant is embedded with navette diamonds, and pear-shaped emerald eyes and comes with a snow-set diamond dial.

Both references operate on the BVL100 manual-winding caliber with 30 hours of power reserve, while boasting a compact size of 12mm in diameter. Hidden inside the mouth of the serpent, the movement also goes by the name of Piccolissimo, a fitting name that means “very, very small” in Italian. The two Serpenti Misteriosi secret watches are open for inquiries via Bulgari.

A brand-new model by the luxury Maison, the Monete Catene Secret Watches are inspired by Nicola Bulgari’s Gemme Nummarie concept from the mid-60s. Boasting the aesthetic of antique coins, the two high-jewelry pieces arrive in the forms of bedazzled chain bracelets. Set with brilliant-cut diamonds, the cases open up to reveal a watch dial, with two dials for the Monete Catene Dual Time model. Beating inside the two watches is the BVL 100 manual-winding micro-movement, which measures an ultra-thin 2.5mm in thickness.
