It’s official: Bvlgari has just trumped itself with its seventh record-breaking lean machine. Meet the Octo Finissimo Perpetual Calendar, the world’s thinnest perpetual calendar compressed inside an automatic movement just 2.75mm thick. The sway Bvlgari has exerted on the watchmaking scene for the past seven years is staggering. Not only has the brand crowned itself as the master of ultra-slim movements for seven consecutive years, but it has also redefined the aesthetic of timepieces in a contemporary, stylish design language.

Today, together with Antoine Pin, Managing Director of the Bvlgari Watch Division, we take a close look at the insanely thin, yet superb new Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Perpetual Calendar

OCTO FINISSIMO PERPETUAL CALENDAR

After exploring ultra-miniaturisation in the fields of the automatic movement, the minute repeater, the chronograph and the tourbillon, Bvlgari presents its new Octo Finissimo Perpetual Calendar, the thinnest in the world.

Aesthetics are inseparable from functionality when it comes to reinterpreting a sophisticated classic horological complication in a resolutely contemporary manner. And that is exactly what the Italian House brings to the table alongs with its Swiss watchmaking savoir-faire: L'Estetica della Meccanica, or the art of in-depth innovation with regard to both form and substance.
