Bulgari Octo Finissimo Stainless Steel

How do I bid? Start here

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 with its thin profile, and sports watch aesthetic enabling it to make an immediate impression on watch lovers. Offered here, we have the Octo Finissimo ref. 103431 with stunning lacquered sunburst blue dial. Powered by the automatic micro-rotor cal. BVL138 movement, the ref. 103431 features an impressive 60 hours of power reserve considering the Octo Finissimo’s thin case. Featuring an integrated bracelet that meshes polished and brushed surfaces together alongside its rectangular case, the Octo Finissimo is a beautifully elegant watch that has, rightfully, taken the luxury sports watch segment by storm.
