The Italian House has indeed redefined the contours of traditional fine watchmaking by applying a touch of absolute innovation, in form and substance. &#8220;<em>We started to imagine a certain configuration, but I immediately realised that in order to achieve this result (the thickness of the watch is 1.8 mm), we had to completely change the way we imagined the watch. One of the things we did was to distribute more components around the centre of the watch. We changed a lot of things, including the shape of the Octo ; as you can see, the dial, even the glass, has an unusual shape<\/em>,&#8221; explains <strong>Fabrizio Buonamassa<\/strong>, design director at Bvlgari.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Octo Finissimo Ultra is indeed unusual, it pushes the limits of the imagination. This notion of going beyond is reflected in the Octo Finissimo Ultra, as Bvlgari watch division director<strong> Antoine Pin<\/strong> describes for Luxus+ about the Ultra designation : &#8220;<em>When you are ultra, you go beyond the limits, you are in the extreme. What interests me is going beyond the limits, going off the beaten track. We have built a culture of going beyond, and there is this approach in Ultra. And then there&#8217;s another thing about the Ultra, for me, which is the magic. Like ultraviolet light, which is invisible, the Ultra is an extraordinary watch, a form of invisible magic<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_80765\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-80765\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-80765 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-1024x799.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-1024x799.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-750x585.jpg 750w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-300x234.jpg 300w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-768x599.jpg 768w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-1536x1199.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-2048x1598.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-370x289.jpg 370w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-800x624.jpg 800w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-20x16.jpg 20w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-185x144.jpg 185w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-740x578.jpg 740w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-400x312.jpg 400w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-1600x1249.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/103611_201_ext-62x48.jpg 62w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-80765\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 Bvlgari<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read our exclusive investigation into the eighth world record set by Bvlgari with the Octo Finissimo Ultra, in the special edition of <a href=\"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/produit\/luxus-magazine-fall-winter-2021-new-copie-2\/\">The Luxury Journals by Luxus+ devoted to Geneva Watch Week 2022<\/a>.
