Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Skeleton Rose Gold 102946

Description

The Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Skeleton 102946 in 18k rose gold is a bold and refined celebration of the brand’s mastery in ultra-thin watchmaking and architectural design. As part of the award-winning Octo Finissimo collection, this reference brings together precious metal, mechanical transparency, and contemporary Italian elegance in a timepiece that stands out for both its complexity and minimalism.

The 40mm octagonal case, crafted entirely in satin-brushed 18k rose gold, measures just 5.37mm thick, making it one of the thinnest skeletonized watches in its category. Despite its slim profile, the watch retains an assertive wrist presence thanks to its faceted geometry, inspired by Roman architectural motifs.

The star of this timepiece is its openworked dial, offering full visual access to the hand-wound BVL 128SK Finissimo caliber. Every bridge and gear is meticulously skeletonized, revealing the elegant symmetry of the movement and showcasing Bvlgari’s mechanical artistry. The movement features hours, minutes, and small seconds, along with a power reserve indicator at 9 o’clock, and delivers an impressive 65-hour power reserve.

The dial elements—such as the open gold indices and the luminescent rose gold skeletonized hands—are suspended above the blackened bridges, providing contrast and legibility without disrupting the transparency of the watch. A sapphire caseback completes the full view, allowing the wearer to admire the finely hand-finished movement from both sides.

The watch is paired with a black alligator leather strap, secured by an 18k rose gold folding clasp that echoes the brushed finish of the case.

The Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Skeleton 102946 is a compelling fusion of avant-garde engineering and luxury design, created for collectors who value lightness, transparency, and the intersection of form and mechanical substance. It exemplifies Bvlgari’s ongoing leadership in the world of ultra-thin haute horlogerie.
