Bvlgari presents the smallest women’s tourbillon
Bvlgari, the Roman Jeweller of Time, introduced its latest novelties at the LVMH Watch Week Dubai 2020. The highlight of the 2020 offerings is the new Serpenti Seduttori Tourbillon, a unique small-sized women’s tourbillon specially designed to fit inside the sleek dimensions of the serpent-head case
One of Bvlgari’s most iconic woman collections continues to evolve with the introduction of the Serpenti Seduttori Tourbillon. The women’s watch Serpenti Seduttori, continues its journey with the debut of new models that are Born to Shine, including the rare tourbillon movement for women, BVL150 Caliber. The movement of the new Seduttori represents that synthesis of Swiss knowledge and jewellery-making featuring the smallest tourbillon on the market. It revives the lost tradition of the small mechanical movements that were replaced by the quartz in the early 70’s.
Designed to fit the Serpenti-shaped case, this small-sized shaped haute horlogerie movement is rhodium-plated, hand-decorated with Côtes de Genève, perlage and bevelling and features one sapphire bridge. Bvlgari adapts the technical considerations to suit the aesthetics by choosing a transparent sapphire back case at the level of the tourbillon to highlight the movement and decoration work – a winding stem inclined of 6 degrees, located between 2h and 3h and special pavé setting to achieve as thin a case as possible.
The new Serpenti Seduttori Tourbillon models come in rose gold or white gold with diamond pavé and a leather strap or white gold with diamond pavé and a full diamond bracelet.
Five new Serpenti Seduttori editions round out the 2020 assortment. Their designs reinterpret the typical snake-skin smooth bracelet to debut one precious version with diamonds and one with alternating rose or white gold and steel.
