MODERN MASTERPIECE
Bvlgari Octo Roma Grande Sonnerie Perpetual Calendar
One of the most exciting reveals at this year’s Baselworld from Bvlgari is the Octo Roma Grande Sonnerie Perpetual Calendar, which celebrates the 25th anniversary of the first Grande Sonnerie by Gerald Genta back in 1994. Bvlgari has introduced more than 90 Grande Sonnerie watches since then and 2019 is the year of the Grande Sonnerie for the Roman jeweler. With a movement that has been fine-tuned from the beginning and featuring a security setting (that protects the movement when winding with the chime plus avoids activating the minute repeating system in grande sonnerie mode), this is an impeccable new addition to Bvlgari’s Grande Sonnerie family and perfectly epitomizes the brand’s mastery of mechanical horology.
