GPHG Tourbillon Watch Nomination - Octo Finissimo Ultra

If I were a judge at the GPHG, I would be truly hesitant when choosing a tourbillon watch. On one hand, there's the Louis Vuitton Tambour Taiko Spin Time Air Tourbillon, which blends Louis Vuitton's classic floating display with a flying tourbillon; on the other hand, there's Bulgari's new Octo Finissimo Ultra Tourbillon, which once again broke the record for thinnest watch this year. However, after much consideration, I believe that breaking records is more important, so I chose the Bulgari Ultra Thin Tourbillon. The best Breitling Avenger replica watches at captainthewatch.is.

Bulgari has once again broken records with a 40mm diameter and a thickness of 1.85mm, marking the brand's tenth time setting a new record for ultra-thin watches. To house a tourbillon that requires extremely limited space while remaining thinner than a one-yuan coin at 1.85mm truly pushes the boundaries of watchmaking.

The Bulgari Octo Finissimo series features the iconic octagonal case, seamlessly integrating the case back with the mainplate of the movement, making the movement and case an integral part of each other. Meanwhile, the entire gear train of the movement is laid out on a single plane. At only 1.85 mm thick, it features a double-layered case structure. The bezel, middle case, and lugs are made of sandblasted titanium, while the mainplate is crafted from extremely hard tungsten carbide, ensuring maximum robustness. Inside, it houses the BVF 900 tourbillon movement, employing a manual winding system, a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz), and a 42-hour power reserve.

Jaeger-LeCoultre's red always possesses an understated yet powerful strength. This Reverso watch, Q713256J, continues the brand's nearly century-old classic rectangular design, but this time, it's imbued with a new soul through red. The case is crafted from 18K rose gold, its warm hue perfectly complementing the deep red dial—understated yet undeniably impactful. While its 45.6 x 27.4 mm dimensions aren't small, its well-proportioned design lends it an exceptional elegance; its 7.56 mm thickness makes it incredibly comfortable to wear. 

The strap features a dual-material design of calfskin and canvas, full of detail and adding a touch of modernity. Powered by Jaeger-LeCoultre's in-house Cal. 822 manual-winding movement, with a 42-hour power reserve and a thickness of only 2.94 mm, it embodies the essence of the "Reverso": precision, reliability, and exquisite craftsmanship.
