Bvlgari Octo Finissimo S Sketch II

The Bvlgari Octo Finissimo S Sketch, reference 104163, stands as a true aesthetic and technical manifesto of the new generation of watchmaking from the Roman house. Preserving the 40 mm stainless steel case with the angular lines characteristic of the Octo Finissimo collection, this limited edition distinguishes itself through a dial that is as unexpected as it is captivating, a genuine tribute to the creative process behind watchmaking.

Beneath an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, the rhodium-plated brass dial serves as a canvas for a series of black sketches illustrating the internal components of the movement. As if hand-drawn, these technical annotations give the dial the appearance of a page torn from a watchmaker’s notebook, suspended somewhere between conceptual art and engineering blueprint. The clean black hands and small seconds at 8 o’clock are naturally integrated into this graphic composition, without compromising legibility. Every element here seems designed to blur the line between design and mechanics, as if the watch were commenting on itself.

The Octo Finissimo S Sketch maintains the ultra-thin profile that has defined the collection’s reputation, measuring just 6.4 mm in thickness. It is powered by the in-house BVL 138 calibre with micro-rotor, delivering a 60-hour power reserve. This automatic movement, visible through the caseback, embodies Bvlgari’s mastery in ultra-thin watchmaking, blending innovation, performance, and finesse.

The satin-finished case, water-resistant to 100 metres, is paired with a brushed steel bracelet whose perfectly integrated design reinforces the sense of a sculptural, monolithic object. A screw-down crown and folding clasp ensure comfort and security, all in the spirit of contemporary refinement. On the wrist, the watch surprises with its architectural presence and lightness, offering a horological experience that is as tactile as it is conceptual.

Produced in only 280 pieces, the Bvlgari Octo Finissimo S Sketch is more than just a watch, it is a statement. It is intended for those who see watchmaking as a form of creative expression, a space where design, mechanics, and ideas converge. A rare piece for the discerning collector or those drawn to objects with bold identity. Offered here in new condition, dated 2024, and delivered with its complete original set.
