Although it is not a brand participating in Watches and Wonders, which runs from March 27 to April 2, Bulgari, Italy's leading fine jeweler and fine watchmaker, will be held in downtown Geneva again this year, following last year. They plan to set up their own grand showcase at the luxury hotel President Wilson and announce their new products. They previously introduced a number of women's high jewelry watches at the LVMH Watch Week held in January, and as expected,replica audemars piguet this time they focused on new men's watches. In particular, various new products were released in the Octo Roma line. Let’s take a look at the hot new product for which the embargo has been lifted as of today (March 26th).
Octo, a combination of octagon and circle, is the most successful work in Bulgari watchmaking history and a truly iconic watch collection of the 21st century. As you all know, the person behind the creation of Octo is Gerald Genta, the greatest watch designer of the 20th century who designed numerous iconic watches that will remain in the history of wristwatches, such as Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak (1972) and Patek Philippe's Nautilus (1976). The shadow of Gérald Genta (1931-2011) looms large. Genta, who had a special affection for octagons during his lifetime, was inspired by the architectural sketches of Italian Renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci and ancient Roman buildings such as the Pantheon and the Basilica of Maxentius, built in the 4th century. , considered the ultimate code for harmonious design. After Bulgari completely acquired the Gerald Genta brand in 2000, Octo was naturally absorbed into Bulgari's collection and is remembered as the main character whose reputation continues to this day.
Encouraged by the success of the Octo launched in 2012, Bulgari launched the ultra-thin Octo Finissimo in 2014,replica watches creating a huge stir by breaking new records with watches with new features every year. Bvlgari, which until then had a strong image as a jeweler, quickly became the most notable fine watchmaker in the Swiss watch industry thanks to the successive popularity of the Octo series. And Octo Roma, another branched line launched in 2017, is the fruit of Bvlgari's limitless challenge and, along with its two previous works, has become a three-branched tripod that supports the Octo collection.
The current Bulgari watch collections, including Octo, Octo Finissimo, and Octo Roma, are all created from the sketches of Creative Director Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani, head of the Bulgari Watch Design Center. In particular, compared to the Octo Finissimo line, which exclaims the 'aesthetics of thinness', the Octo Roma is characterized by a case body that spreads out more to the sides and an overall sense of volume. In addition, the length between lugs is short and the processing on each side of the profile is relatively simple, creating a unique shape that differentiates it from other Octo lines.
