Introducing: The Bulgari Octo Finissimo Skeleton Ceramic

March 20, 2019

Keeping in step with their theme of making ultra-thin and ultra-high-tech watches, Bulgari has released two additional pieces in the Octo Finissimo Collection C?the Automatic Ceramic and the Skeleton Ceramic. Both watches are made in black ceramic, one with a solid dial and the other with a skeletonized dial. Both watches measure up at 40mm in diameter and 5.5mm top to bottom. They both feature high performing movements, the automatic caliber BVL 138 Finissimo (60-hour power reserve) and the BVL 128SK Finissimo (65-hour power reserve). Both are fitted with the ultra-thin and wearable Finissimo bracelet made of black ceramic as well.? The Octo Finissimo Skeleton Ceramic (left) and the Octo Finissimo Automatic Ceramic (right). Initial Thoughts I am a big fan of the Octo Finissimo however, one must ask themselves if too much of a good thing is, well, too much. Both these watches certainly have their redeeming qualities C high performing calibers with the increasingly popular ceramic material. Call me old fashioned but I prefer the original Octo Finissimo in Titanium and get way more amped by new releases such as the new thinnest automatic chronograph ever made. That said, its important to create?pieces that people can actually buy and wear and Bulgari gets this. The continue to produce high-end watches for women and men alike while pushing technological feats. Also, ceramic is a pretty cool material to wear on the reg. The Octo Finissimo Ceramic features a black matte dial with eccentric seconds.
