Another record-breaking iteration of Bulgari’s icon with the additional GMT function, this Octo Finissimo 103467 embodies the excellence this collection typically exudes. It is the world’s slimmest automatic chronograph and one with a GMT complication, released on the heels of the Octo Automatic in steel. Calibre BVL318 powering this watch is just 3.30 mm thick, which makes the watch a shocking 8.75mm thin. It features the peripheral oscillating weight, first seen in the Octo Finissimo Automatic Tourbillon introduced in 2018 and a column wheel chronograph mechanism with a lateral clutch.
Beyond the chronograph and the GMT, this reference, of course, features the signature octagonal case in steel and a steel crown kitted with a ceramic insert. It is held by an integrated bracelet rendered in satin-polished steel with a three-blade folding buckle. Compared to the 2017 Octo Automatic, this reference is sportier, sturdier, and more functional. Housed within the 43mm case, the dial is a bright blue with a sunburst finish and carries a creative intrigue, courtesy of the contrasting white sub-dials and luminous markers and hands.
