For today's wear: understated beauty.
The Octo Finissimo in bead-blasted, white gold-surfaced stainless steel, Ref. #BGO 40 STX. One of the very few integrated bracelet watches that appeal to me. (The others are not the usual suspects.) The wearing comfort here is fantastic, and as with many of the Octo Finissimo models, the finishing is exceptionally successful in highlighting the complex case geometry.
I'm thinking, meanwhile, of putting together a comparative review
of a few extra-thin and ultra-thin watches from the likes of Bulgari,
Breguet, and Piaget. Any interest, or does it sound like a dud?
Best to all, and thanks for looking!

Very appealing watch!
I have a version in carbon and generally very happy with it, it lacks accuracy though. Please do proceed with the comparison review that you have mentioned - I look forward to enjoying the read!
Thinness is way underrated. Similarly is consistent timekeeping.
