Technical The Ultra-Small Bvlgari Piccolissimo Calibre BVL 100
The launch of the Octo Finissimo collection in 2014 was a defining moment in the history of Bvlgari watches. Topping one record after the other for seven consecutive years, the brand became the master of ultra-slim movements and redefined the aesthetic of the luxury sports watch in a distinctive, modern and stylish design language. After exploring the limits of ultra-thin mechanical watchmaking, Bvlgari now sets its eyes on ultra-small with Piccolissimo. With it, the Roman brand opens new territories of expression for its feminine watches, in particular, the emblematic Serpenti Collection.There is nothing wrong with quartz movements. Quartz is more precise, does not require regular winding, and tends to be less fragile overall.

Last year, marking the 75th anniversary of the championship, Tissot unveiled a brand new generation of T-Race MotoGP watches. Still bold, still characterful, but certainly better than before. As the 2025 season will soon begin, the brand now unveils its dedicated limited edition, a new openworked version of its automatic chronograph inspired by MotoGP.This year’s edition is largely based on the concept introduced last year, with a brand new case design that revamped the collection while retaining some of its most distinctive elements – the brake rotor-shaped bezel is, by far, the most recognizable e
