Bvlgari Watches never ceases to impress… Whether they create ultra-thin, record-breaking watches or ultra-feminine watches inspired by the Italian culture, the brand has managed in the past few years to have one of the most solid collections of the entire industry. Baselworld 2019 was again the occasion for the brand to expose superb novelties, as you’ll see in this video interview with Guido Terreni, Managing Director of the brand, introducing to us the new Bvlgari Watches of Baselworld 2019.The first model that has been introduced by the brand at Baselworld 2019 is dedicated to women; the Bvlgari Serpenti Seduttori. This piece is a new take on the legendary snake-shaped watch, this time worn in a more contemporary, more discreet way, with an apparently simple bracelet… We say apparently because this bracelet shows superb jewelry skills and is beautifully shaped with links as scales.

Watches and Formula 1 - Episode 4 - TAG Heuer & Red Bull
Let's be honest, this past season of Formula 1 was not the most exciting between the usual suspects up front, just like the last three seasons have basically seen one team dominate the whole year. The battle within that team however was particularly exciting, right down to the final meters of the final lap of the final race. Amidst all that internal drama however a few teams and driver's still managed to steal the absolute show! The talk of the town and the team and driver on everyone's mind: Red Bull Racing and Max Verstappen! This young Dutchman surprised everyone by pulling off a seemingly impossible achievement; becoming the youngest-ever Grand Prix winner. Along with his teammate, he was the only driver outside of Mercedes this season to clinch a victory, doing things on the track that no one has ever seen before! All of that is here to remind us about the partnership that goes along: TAG Heuer and Red Bull Racing - and the long history of Heuer into F1 timekeeping.Personal opinio
