Bulgari left no stone unturned at this year’s Watches and Wonders in refreshing some of its most beloved lines with stunning updates, from its most sophisticated watch collection to indulgent jewellery fantasias festooned with precious stones.

Since it was introduced in 2014, the Bulgari Octo Finissimo has been celebrated for its sharp, stylish lines. Fittingly for a creation from the emblematic Roman jeweller, its aesthetic is inspired by the shapes of ancient Roman architecture. That heritage is reflected in the octagonal dial that gives the watch its name, contrasting with its circular bezel which is, in turn, encompassed by an octagonal case – except that here the octagon is actually a rectangle with its corners sheared off.

The latest version of the Octo Finissimo preserves all that Roman style and swagger, but in a rather daintier package, with the 40mm case slimmed down to 37mm, and the watch weighing in at just 65g. That’s made possible by the new self-winding Calibre BVF 100 that powers it, which is 20 per cent smaller than the movement in the 40mm version. The watch comes in four versions: one in satin polished yellow gold, one in satin polished titanium and two in sandblasted titanium – one of that pair equipped with a minute repeater complication.

The Bulgari Octo Finissimo Ultra Tourbillon Platinum rewrote the record books when it was launched in 2025, becoming the thinnest ever tourbillon watch at just 1.85mm. Now it’s available in a version with a platinum case and integrated bracelet, offset by blue accents on its dramatic openworked dial. It’s available in a limited edition of just 10.

Bulgari’s iconic snake gets a makeover in gold and steel in the Serpenti Tubogas Studs collection. The watches are characterised by dials in mother-of-pearl, sodalite, carnelian and malachite, complementing diamond-covered bezels, with studs of gold or diamonds on the coiled bracelets.

For an even more striking interpretation of the snake, look no further than the new Serpenti Aeterna. One version comes smothered with a vibrant rainbow of stones, including 493 round brilliant-cut diamonds, plus 122 others, including rubellite, amethyst, topaz, emerald, citrine, pink and blue sapphire, tanzanite, paraiba, tsavorite, spessartite, pink tourmaline, aquamarine and peridot. There’s also a version in yellow gold if you prefer a more minimal look.

The same groundbreaking artistry is also expressed in some new jewellery pieces for 2026, which draw their inspiration from classic Bulgari creations from the 1970s. Crafted in the maison’s trademark daring combination of radiant yellow gold and steel, they include two new B.zero1 rings and a Tubogas parure.
