Octo Finissimo Automatique BVL 138 Sketch commemorates Bvlgari's 140th anniversary
By SENATUS Editor | 22 July 2024

Commemorating Bvlgari’s 140th anniversary, the Italian manufacture introduces the Octo Finissimo Automatique BVL 138 Sketch with an illustrated dial called Esquisse, derived from the Italian word for “sketch.”

This concept draws inspiration from the tradition of artists in the Italian Renaissance who kept sketches to refine their craft and share knowledge. Bulgari, with its rich heritage in craftsmanship, embraces this tradition by incorporating hand-drawn sketches into its watchmaking process.

The Octo Finissimo Automatique BVL 138 Sketch watch reveals the movement’s back instead of a traditional dial, offering a glimpse into the inner workings of the timepiece, akin to admiring a watch through an open case back.

By merging art and technology, Bulgari’s creative studio brilliantly captures the essence of the watch’s design and mechanical intricacy, celebrating both the soul of the timepiece and its technical prowess.
