Behind the scenes (Part TWO) of the Bvlgari "Octo Finissimo" cases and dials! We are sure: the beautiful name "Octo Finissimo" alone is enough to get you in the mood, and we haven't even mentioned the in-house manufactured dials and cases yet.
But it is precisely the latter that are the subject of another two behind the scene 4K-videos...
We were in Saignelégier in the Swiss Jura, where Bvlgari designs and manufactures its own cases and dials. The Bvlgari Manufacture has a very high level of vertical integration, with only a few components for the cases and dials being bought in from suppliers. What was equally exciting for us to discover is the general smallness of these parts.
This is a veritable watchmaking mini mundus!
As we all know, the name "Octo Finissimo" stands for ultra-flat watches equipped with equally ultra-flat movements.
Bvlgari has already been able to present eight world records with these ultra-flat movements and watches.
Now we at WatchAdviser hope you enjoy watching the two videos and I am already looking forward to your hopefully numerous comments...

That video was personal, informative and wonderfully done. One day I will buy the Finissimo. Thank you. And thanks for Bvlgari for letting you in and so close to the production process. I wished more manufacturers where this transparent.

Great to watch the watch case being made. The Octofinissimo in sandblasted stainless steel, no longer being offered afaik, my favorite version based on the way it looks.

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! I didn’t know that they do no longer offer that version… Interesting!

@keithburford8589 Год назад

When you consider the investment in the machinery plus the machining / man hours that go into this watch , well in my opinion the cost of the Octo Finissimo is a veritable bargain. I know of a certain RU-vidr who could carry off the Tatoo version perfectly, its certainly different if Tattoos are your thing I guess. Thanks again for sharing a great video Alex.

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and passion with us! Tastes are different... so there will always be someone wanting to buy a specific watch... That's what I call: being spoilt for choice...

This video gave me a deeper appreciation of my Octo titanium. I do have a question. I purchased my watch from a Bulgari boutique and they told me the watch cannot be worn in the shower or pool. I realize the water rating is 30M and in watch circles that means zero but according to you Bulgari does test their watches in water, so what is their official position on wearing the octo time only in titanium in the shower or swimming in a pool?

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

No wearing of a watch that is 30 meters waterproof in the shower and/or in a pool etc. Why? Yes the case is tested 100%, but the partial pressure that may apply on the case/crown/saphire crystal in a shower, in a pool (when jumping in it, making quick moves under water) may be higher than its certification...

@SkywhiteChannel Год назад

@@WatchAdvisor thank you!

@HarryJoiner Год назад

11:14 -- what watch is this craftsman wearing? any guesses?

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

A sort of private label copying the look of a sought after steel sports watch…

@timeisahumanconstruct9251 Год назад

Any idea the total hours spent creating the Finissimo? Seems like a crazy amount.

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

Good question! I will try to find out…

@etamarshamoil2739 Год назад

Alex, any idea if Bulgari will ever be able to make the Octo Finissimo with lume?

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

Will be very, very difficult … lume adds height to the thin construction…

@etamarshamoil2739 Год назад

Thank you. They’d probably need to either make it slightly thicker or cut it into the dial as opposed to on the dial.

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

@@etamarshamoil2739 Thanks for sharing ing! Whatever you do it will add thickness to the construction….

@harry-eto Год назад

17:58 be careful with "the machine will never be able to do what the specialist does" maybe not this one, but the next one learning with AI. I'm not saying that is necessary a good thing, but i'm sure it will happen sooner than we think. 20:40 Tatoo by laser; not my taste either, but i'm sure it can do other artwork and it's a lot less painful to get rid of than a real Tatoo 😉

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

Hopefully we will still be the master of machines in the future… 😉😱😂

@harry-eto Год назад

@@WatchAdvisor that pretty much sums up my concerns with AI. It's a bit of a "Zauberlehrling" Situation. However, i wonder what AI would come up if we gave it the task of inventing a different kind of escapement🤔

@rickjason215 Год назад

Great watch. Just incredible that they can make the watch so thin. I think you are wrong about machines, not being able to do certain tasks. With AI advancing by leaps and bounds, the machines will learn.

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

As long machines help/serve us I am in… when they are supposed to take over some day I hope I am no longer here…

@rickjason215 Год назад

@@WatchAdvisor I think you are around my age. They couldn't make this incredible watch without the technology or it would be ridiculously expensive. One thing I learned is whatever we think will happen, won't happen. It will be something we never expected. I know you are very curious and you need to be around to see it.

@WatchAdvisor Год назад

No, of course not! All this miniaturization would not be possible without these incredible automatic lathes and CNC machines...

@patrickol4300 Год назад

Incredibly interesting channel and tour , thank you. They are the only,' not-only, watch making brand, (fashion brand, etc.)', that I would ever consider purchasing; vague Genta history, or not, they are just so good ,such quality and definitely, ageless!
