Chicolini's initial impressions of the Bulgari Octo Finissimo with a screw-down crown and 100m water resistance offer a valuable early look at a significant evolution for the collection. His detailed photos and observations highlight how these enhancements transform the Finissimo into a more robust sports watch, addressing previous limitations while retaining its distinctive aesthetic. This article synthesizes community feedback on this pivotal model, providing a comprehensive perspective for collectors considering its place in their rotation.
Very lovely piece, a “sports watch” where the 15202 could never be. Like you said, screw down crown and 100M water resistance. Thinner than the 15202 also, why not? Ted
The odd placement of secs subdial compared to the prev iteration is also what concerns me but not a dealbreaker. They keep pushing the envelope.
Most concerning to me however is that your wife disappeared after the first wristshot...you might be lacking the most important approval! ;-))
Is there that much difference in thickness between the two? I read that it is very minimal and for the water resistance the watch is more useful for me. The stainless steel does make it heavier than the others however. I don’t mind the weight. The bracelet is stunning with the alternating brushed finish with polished center links. Very striking.
This is a wristshot taken in Napoli of the T version which I immediately liked (I believe it was last summer), but I haven't seen yours in the metal and as you say it definitely wouldn't seem *much* thicker. Enjoy ;-)
It looks like the older titanium version has a case 5.15mm high. The new steel one is 6.40mm. Still very thin.
