With Bulgari, it's always complicated...PART 1
The 2010 Bulgari collection has a large range of
complicated pieces ranging from a tourbillon in the classic
BVLGARI-BVLGARI case, to the stunning Bulgari Collection Gerald Genta
Sapphire Tourbillon and the Daniel Roth Lumiere, the Bulgari Assioma
skeletonized perpetual calendar tourbillon, and all the way to the Octo
Grande Sonnerie Tourbillon.
I joined DRMW
at the flagship Bulgari boutique inside Crystals Mall at City Center Las
Vegas to take a closer look at the entire Bulgari complication
collection. Yes, every single complicated piece was available
in one place to handle!
To start, here's a video
showcasing the collection on display:
I posted the review of the
Gerald Genta Sapphire Tourbillon:

And the
Daniel Roth Tourbillon Lumiere:

Which piece
should we take a look at next? Perhaps the Sotirio Bulgari
tourbillon perpetual calendar in platinum case:
Or the Assioma tourbillon, perpetual calendar and GMT:
Or something exotic like the Octo Grande Sonnerie Tourbillon:

Looks like one vote for the Bulgari-Bulgari tourbillon
Anyone else would like to vote? Regards, ED-209
At first I didn't care too much for the case style
Hi DRMW, Interesting choice. At first I didn't really care too much for the style of the Assioma case. But surprisingly it looks really good in person and on the wrist. I'll try to get pics up soon. Regards, ED-209

The X-Pro would be a great piece to review
Hi PHK, It's always fun to dream about some of these complicated pieces. If money was not an issue, which one of the Bulgari, Sortirio, GG, or DR would you choose? For me, I really like the GG Sapphire Tourbillon. As for the X-Pro, I'm really anticipating...

Will either have to make a trip to Vegas or hope that the special watches make it out to San Francisco. But for now, I'm content with seeing it on PuristSPro. Thanks Ed!

Thanks SJX for checking out the pics. This was the first time I've seen the Assioma QP/Tourbillon in person and it's very striking in person. There's all kinds of little details to see on the watch. I'll be sure to post more pics soon, but in the mean tim...
