The new Octo Finissimo Tuscan Copper captivates with its sunray dial, showcasing craftsmanship inspired by the mesmerizing qualities of copper.⁣ With this new timepiece, Bulgari ventures into new creative realms.

A true statement piece, its sunray Tuscan copper dial in a salmon hue stands as a highly coveted rarity among Bulgari connoisseurs. Rhodium-plated hands and indexes create subtle and elegant contrasts on this coppery face, paired with a case and bracelet in 904L stainless steel, the same grade as that used in the aerospace industry. The caliber BVL 138 provides an ample power reserve of 60 hours.

Bulgari’s essence, deeply rooted in its Italian heritage, finds its most exquisite inspirations on the peninsula. The vibrant hue of Tuscan copper perfectly exemplifies this ethos. Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani explains: “Here, the metallic salmon tone draws its inspiration not from the usual vintage aesthetic prized by collectors, but from the very roots of Italian art, that of the 16th century, and more precisely from a disruptive movement of the time, called Mannerism, which marked my own training as a designer. Hence, my choice for this color symbolizes an experimental and disruptive artistic approach.”

Boldly defying the norm, Mannerist hues strikingly diverged from the subdued tones of the High Renaissance. One of the movement’s protagonists, Jacopo da Pontormo, was known for his vivid, almost metallic color schemes – as echoed by the dial on the Octo Finissimo Tuscan Copper
