Introduction

Originally released in 2014, the Bulgari Octo Finissimo burst onto the watchmaking scene as Bulgari's latest entrant into the world of angular integrated bracelet timepieces inspired by Gerald Genta's signature design language. Since then, the Octo Finissimo has been Bulgari's most often-used vehicle for horological innovation. Demonstrating Bulgari’s idea of complex simplicity, the ref. 102714 shines a light on the areas of watchmaking that Bulgari holds important. With its stunningly thin 2.35mm octagonal case containing the openworked cal. BVL 128SK, Bulgari have demonstrated their ability to pack a watch with some impressive horological might while also ensuring their watch makes no compromises. Featuring a power reserve indicator, a running seconds subdial, and 65 hours of power reserve to boot, the ref. 102714 is not only seriously stunning; it is a true luxury timepiece. With its angular multi-faceted case, leather strap, and openoworked dial, the Octo Finissimo ref. 102714 is a watch that has undoubtedly earned its place within the modern luxury watchmaking scene.
