Watchmakers present their credentials in a few ways, and accolades are just one. Some display observatory awards denoting a legacy of accuracy. Still others summon up an array of patents reflecting the spirit of innovation and creativity marking their manufactures. A lucky few get to demonstrate both with hundreds of years of history. Bvlgari decided to create its own legacy, and to do it in a way that no other brand had done. The result today is the Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Ultra, the world?s thinnest mechanical watch at 1.80 mm thick, caseback to sapphire crystal top. Such a watch does not appear overnight though?
In 2012, Bvlgari built the foundation for this monumental achievement with the Octo L?Originale, and delivered the ground floor in 2014 with the Octo Finissimo Tourbillon Manual. This tourbillon wristwatch boasted the thinnest manual-winding flying tourbillon movement in the world at just 1.95 mm thick. What set the brand apart was that it set out to break its own record ? and establish new standards that surpassed all that had gone before. Of course, Bvlgari was in that healthiest and most inspirational adventure ? to do something only it could do, and then top itself.
