Innovative design with haute horology. Bvlgari has arrived with the Octo Finissimo. The blue dial S is amazing. Just picked one up. Cheers

Another great produced video my man!

What a gorgeous piece 😍

What a piece of beauty. Very well done my friend 👌 Thanks for sharing.

This is an awesome piece! Thanks for showing! I owned the Octo Solotempo for about half the price of the Finissimo (on the leather strap). And even that was a stunning piece! It was of course thicker due to another movement but it also had the unmistakable case shape as well as a comparable stunning blue dial. The Octo dials in general are next level and the overall look and finish of those watches can really compete with the much pricier competitors imho. The only reason I sold mine is that I'm more of a sports watch guy. Unfortunately the secondary market is a sad place for those watches as pretty much nobody seems to be interested in those beautiful timepieces...

Imo itˋs already a legend! Love the video 😎👊🏽

I find myself REALLY liking this timepiece. It's like modern art, except, good. Great Video!

Great video as always 👍🏻

Top notch production 👌🏻

Awesome video, Evan! Will buy an Octo Finissimo later this year. Was set on the Chrono GMT, but the 100m WR of the new ones is definitely something to think about ;)

Beautiful Octo!

Loved the video , my friend ! I'd love to see the steel version in matte finish on your channel !

Great video. Thanks.

This is the definitive version of the Finissimo IMO! That deep, sunburst blue dial, the stain steel, it simultaneously looks like a jewellery from Bulgari and also a haute horology piece. The matte finish looked always a little too sterile for me. Great shots of the watch, and great editing as always! Oh and Mark Cho of The Armory has a custom matte finished Finissimo, I think he has smaller wrists than yours. - Han

Stunning! The Royal Oak and Nautilus do nothing for me, but this one is breathtaking and has technical merit. Ahead of its time. The public may catch up to it in a few decades like the Nautilus and Royal Oak.

Such a beautiful watch!

Love your work. About to take the plunge and get the OG version (sand blasted titanium) just bc of the super stealth look and how the weightlessness matches the thinness. I’m not one for shiny surfaces, but when a shiny piece, my safe queen AP RO more-than-suffices

Fantastic vid!

Well done video, concise video. You hit all the big points. Excellent job of doing the dial justice, but I do feel you didn’t show off the case and all it’s intricacies.incredublu, it’s one piece of stainless steel and my favorite case design of all-time. I’ve never seen a better looking watch at any price. That case, the hands, the numerals. It is modern, unique, sleek, and beyond cool. I don’t really care if it becomes an “icon” or not. Warches are, after all, are a form of def-expression. I’ll check out you other videos.

That's amazing looking!

The best design in the last 30 years! Pure Genta's heritage

I never really liked the watch until I saw your video, either I was wrong when I saw it in the boutique or you just do too damn good a job showing it off in your video. KUDOS

My favorite version will always be the sandblasted yellow gold (god that version is so awesome), but this one looks great as well.

Would love to have this one in Ruby red lacquered dial or a fume dial, plain rectangular indexes and no numeral, half polished half brushed/sand-blasted hand, in satin-polished gold or steel and not a limited edition! Or emerald green shade lacquered dial like Bvlgari famous emerald high jewelries.

Simply stunning

Fab video sir. Think this is hotter than the sub

Goddamn I seriously love this watch. Grail 100% for me.

The 4 legit alternative to the PP Nautilus and AP Royal Oak are the Finissimo, GP Laureatto, Moser Steamliner, and Czapel Antarctique that you can get at retail price (even small discount in some case) and for what they offer...no lesser than those 2. For my money. I’m putting it on your stainless steel version with blue dial (although the Moser is also pulling me quite strongly)...this coming from an AP15400 owner

AP RO 15400 owner here. About to buy this Bvlgari OF (but the OG in sand blasted titanium) bc the two watches aren’t even comparable. The OF is wearable, has longer PR, is razor thin, super stealth (material shine wise, not to the mention the imminent life-endangerment that happens with wearing royal oaks outdoors) and all the cool gimmicks like platinum micro-rotor and titanium dial etc etc

After owning it for almost a year I must say I love it but only when wearing sleeves. Biggest pet peeves 1. Smudges…. All the shiny surfaces get covered in smidges and since it’s got so many cracks it’s Very very hard to wipe off all the smudges with a micro fiber cleaning cloth. 2 the fit….. it flops around on my wrist quite a bit wish it had a micro adjustments as unlike the royal oak the bracelet is not ridged so it doesn’t fit as well as I’d like

The chronograph GMT Octo Finissimo is the one I got my eyes on, I hope they make a satin polished steel version of that in a year or two as I like the finishing (and prolly also the weight) much better than the bead blasted titanium

Yessss

Yup, i think this watch gonna be a legendary

Thanks for sharing. I am considering one but curious to know what the accuracy is like for this movement before deciding really

I really respect the line and it’s accomplishments. I like the looks and have come to have much more respect for the brand. That said, it just doesn’t fit my aesthetic. I’m more of a jeans and a diver guy. I dont wear any full bracelet yet “dressy” watches (my GMT Batman comes closest). It’s almost “too elegant” for me...which, admittedly, does sound strange. BTW - completely agree about FLW. And great video.

It's cool. I actually like this.

That’s a good looking watch

@youreterrific which do you love more this watch or the Cartier Santos Blue in your other video? I cannot decide

Your Frank Lloyd Wrist comment is spot on. As an architect, I concur.

Back in 2001 I had an offer to buy the AP-RO 37mm in a WEMPE store in Hamburg for 7.800 euros. I know more about watches then most people and there was just no way of foreseeing this development. Sure, it was a desirable watch even back then but brands like FP Journe, Roger Dubuis, Parmigiani, Cedric Johner, Christian Van Der Klaauwe and believe it or not even Hublot where the posterboys of a new era so I passed on that offer. Well well..

Yes, a future legend!

A legend now! Have you seen the Chronograph GMT Automatic? 🤯

I have it, fabulous !

Bellissimo!

belissimo! I wonder how it would look on an oem leather strap!

Give me thin any day, say I a thin man. The 40mm sandblasted titanium case, with white dial, is dope.

May I ask how large your wrist is? And what you think the max wrist size it would work well with? Thanks!

Wow, I never made the connection to Falling Water! Incredible analysis! For my taste, the 40mm square case shape is too large, similar to the Santos de Cartier Large, since 40mm in a square design is roughly equivalent to a 45mm round case's area. I have large wrists as well, but it is too "contemporary" for my taste to have such a large watch, especially a square one that has an inherently avantgarde design, as opposed to a large Seiko or what have you. Top watch channel, sir!

I agree with everything you said and then I tried one on and it just didn’t look to be that big on my 7.25 oval shaped wrist. It wears more like 42 imo. That being said I do wish they made this watch in 37-38mm. That would be the sweet spot for this.

hey i have the octo finismo white and blue i bought it a month ago and in the bottom of the watch it doesn't have the gears showing like in the video its covered with metal and its screwed i also bought it from a original blvgari shop

WOW 😯

Nice video planning to commit. I agree this has all the hallmarks of a modern day nautilus or RO. Can’t decide whether black or blue

I was choosing between black and blue too. Go to a boutique and see both and decide. I went with blue in the end.

I’m really conflicted about this watch. But the stainless steel version attracts me the most. Do I think it I will someday see it as a legend? Probably not.

Have it on my wrist, bracelet is finger print magnet.. but I like it more than Royal Oak

Nice shirt !

from the first time I laid eyes on one I said it is DEFINITELY a future legend

I love this watch. Unfortunately 40mm is too big for my teeny wrists

The Finissmo is inspired by Roman architecture. Specifically the Basilica Maxentius interior.

OK so this, the VC overseas, and the Santos blue.... I think you now have an obligation to review every blue dial genta-esque watch. Purely because your videos are leagues above others.

What's the problem of going into a pool (1-2m deep presumably) with a watch with 30 Meters Water resistance? Am I missing something?

@KC-bv9kf

Жыл бұрын

The rating is static testing in a controlled and confined environment. When we swim, the pressure on the watch from hand/arm movements is greater than static pressure at 30 meters. It’s like carrying a 30 lbs weight on your shoulder vs someone dropping a 5 lb weight from 5 feet above your shoulder.

@@KC-bv9kf Very interesting. So you can go into a pool, but don't move around vigorously.

That's an easy sell right there!

My wrist is 6.25in and unfortunately it looks overwhelmed on me. It's definitely a brilliant piece and I would own if my wrist was larger..

I'm waiting for Bulgari to add some lume to the dial. That'll make it a true sports watch.

I had the Octo Solotempo that is 10.5mm thick but also has a screw down crown and decent water resistance. I tried very hard to love this watch, but just could not and sold it. I loved the bracelet and design, but the squareness of the case and huge width of the bracelet makes this watch design wear very, very big to me. It just felt like too much to me, for my personal tastes.
