The Good

One of the best features of this timepiece is, of course, the design. BVLGARI does not pull its punches on this model, outfitting it with pure 18kt Rose Gold nearly all the way around. All parts of its construction is 18kt Rose Gold from the case, the crown, to the polished bezel.

The dial is Jet Black with a Tourbillon located at the 6 o’clock position. This skeletonized portal is visible under the “invisible Sapphire crystal bridge” that protects this dial.

The polished skeleton Rose Gold hands keep the decadent design on track, as does the finely printed minute track that lie on a raised flange on the outer dial. The extraordinary polished, fixed bezel is pure 18kt Rose Gold and is finely etched with the iconic BVLGARI•BVLGARI logo.

The Automatic movement features a Bulgari in-house manufactured Caliber BLV 263 that beats at 21,600 vph. This movement is comprised of 263 parts and contains 40 jewels. With a Power Reserve of 64 hours, this luxury timepiece has one of the best reputations in the luxury watch business.

The Bad
