This week Italian luxury brand Bulgari is debuting its new watch designs for 2020 at an exclusive event in Dubai. Headlining the collection is the ultra-thin Octo Finissimo Minute Repeater offered in sandblasted rose gold.

A followup to the original design from 2016, the 2020 iteration features an 18k rose gold case with a transparent case back. The crown, push button, and dial are also crafted from 18k rose gold to provide the watch with added touches of luxury.

With mechanical manufacture movement, manual winding, and small seconds, the timepiece boasts a 42-hour power reserve and is water-resistant to 30m. Complementing the predominantly 18k rose gold build is a brown matte alligator strap with an 18k rose gold ardillon buckle.

In addition to the Octo Finissimo Minute Repeater, which retails for a whopping $170,000, Bulgari presents the Octo Finissimo Automatic in satin-polished rose gold ($22,700) and satin-polished steel ($12,000).

The rose gold version has an extra-thin 18k rose gold case and a transparent case back. The screw-down crown set is crafted from 18k rose gold as well. The watch also features a black lacquered dial and flat diamond rose gold-plated hands. Water-resistant to 100m, the rose gold watch is equipped with a black alligator strap with an 18k rose gold ardillon buckle.

Similarly, the steel Octo Finissimo Automatic is outfitted with an extra-thin satin-polished steel case and transparent case back, while featuring a polished steel screw-down case set with ceramic inlay and diamond rhodium-plated hands. This particular timepiece is also water-resistant to 100m and includes an integrated satin-polished steel bracelet with a folding clasp.
