The Progress of Time at BVLGARI
Thanks Ping for the summary.
Bulgari seems to have walked a similar path as Cartier; first with movements from suppliers and then with their own Manufactures.
First as jewellers and then as watchmakers in their own right.
Both brands have just introduced their own base movements that can be developed in future e.g. Bulgari Calibro 168 and 1904MC for Calibre de Cartier; to power their entry-level watches first, and maybe more.......

Interesting parallels...
...between the two. Bulgari seems to have extended beyond jewelry and watches and positioned themselves as a full luxury lifestyle brand. I would imagine that this leads to a closer understanding of their clientele. It will be interesting to see how they ...
Thanks Ping for the history of Bulgari watches
Very interesting to see the developments from the 1920's to current. And also the lineage and how the current models still hold the Bulgari style. One of the most interesting things in your article was the pic from the 1970's, I didn't realize that there ...
Great post, Ping!
It's fantastic to see the brand's horological evolution, culminating with the new in-house movement released this year. While I still am unsure about the design motif for the rotor of the new caliber 168 (Do I like it? Do I hate it? Not sure.), I think Bu...
