Over the past decade, the Octo Finissimo series has set nine records, including the world's slimmest three-hand watch COSC certified and the world's slimmest automatic chronograph.

This year, Bulgari celebrates its 140th anniversary. For this special occasion, the Manufacture ventures into uncharted territory as it introduces a series of watches with an illustrated dial, revealing the caliber of each timepiece.

The Octo Finissimo Chronograph GMT Sketch embodies this innovative approach, featuring a 43 mm satin-polished rose gold case with a slimness of 8.75 mm to elegantly house its GMT chronograph complications. The automatic Manufacture movement with a peripheral oscillating weight provides a 55-hour power reserve. This design, pivotal for the watch’s record-breaking thinness in 2019, incorporates a caliber measuring a mere 3.3 mm in height that not only includes a 30-minute chronograph and central second but also displays a second time zone at 3 o'clock.

This unique piece for Time for Art showcases a sketch featuring key elements of the dial and the back of the movement. Skillfully blending the iconic chronograph display (GMT at 3 o'clock, 30-minute counter at 6 o'clock, small seconds at 9 o'clock) with a balance represented between 4 and 5 o'clock, the emblematic column wheel at 8 o'clock, and exquisite finishing details on the bridges and gears. The open caseback reveals the original BVL 318 caliber with special marking "esemplare unico 1/1" and “Time For Art logo”.
