What's better than one Finissimo?

Two. Photos have been shot saturday afternoon with some sunset light. I will make a photo comparison, sooner or later. I had the Titanium since last may, during Covid always been on my wrist. Recently I realized this spring I won't be able to fly anywhere...

So Brauner was rightπŸ˜‚ Thanks for the nice post, these are indeed two stunning watches β€” and thematic collections can be *very* interesting and exclusive in my opinion...

 
 By: FabR : February 1st, 2021-12:25
Since you do love this OF line, and with good reason, trying and getting all of them will be a crazy but GREAT project to realize!πŸ˜‰πŸ₯‚

The sandblasted ones are perfect--they look like concrete brutalist architecture, but turn out to be light as a feather

Concrete brutalist architecture. Perfectly put. Love them

I agree. The titanium model is the "core piece" here.

Which other six would your collection include?

Eight Octo Finissimos? The world has gone crazy for this watch! I'm still waiting on getting my first one!

I am a simple person, a time only is all that I need, but I will give the chrono a chance, though chronos and complicated have usually too much stuff on the dial for me...well, they're complicated for one reason. 2021 has just begun and I hope to take my ...

I'm thinking my Octo Finissimo collection will have two pieces...

 
 By: patrick_y : February 1st, 2021-14:01
I like that Tadao Ando Titanium piece. And I'd like to add that piece to my collection. And I really like the steel models too, both the black and the blue dial. I'd probably like to add one of those to my collection eventually as well. I'd also have anot...

The steel is obviously a bit heavier than the titanium, but it's still light...

And mostly thin, 1 mm more is nothing you can be aware of, unless you measure it.

Do you find that the Ti one gets scratches easily?

So far (crossed fingers) none

and very often and have no scratches at all. I find the new steel with grey dial very tempting too. George

Interesting. Thank you for sharing this detail!

I have a feeling that sandblasted finish is very resistant.

 
 By: patrick_y : February 2nd, 2021-10:34
This is definitely good news for individuals like myself whom are trying to buy a titanium piece!

Give in! I’m giving in as well.

The Tadao Ando in titanium, time only.

 By: Jay (Eire) : February 1st, 2021-18:25
What would be next do you think? A different material, or different dial? A complication? The most recent release with the brushed dial looks very nice, but so does the Ando and some others.

I do love titanium

It's warm, compared to the steel. Something with a strap will come in the future, let's see the forthcoming releases

Rubber strap

 
 By: Jakub M : February 1st, 2021-23:36
I would love for them to make a rubber strap for these, they do have rubber straps for the regular Solotempo versions, not a huge fan of the rubber strap on the new GMT Chronograph with endlink.

Absolutely!

Congrats...two fabulous watches...what will be very interesting is seeing how your impressions of the new one are after a few months. Please let us know how it goes! Best E.

Not at all

The watch is uknown to common people, they do know Bulgari but the watch itself is ignored. Titanium is definitely low profile, steel is more eye catching because of reflections, but still nothing can overtake the Oyster bracelet.

Uh oh! 2-3 means it's addictive! I don't want to be addicted! It seems to be a favorite across the board!

 
 By: patrick_y : February 4th, 2021-11:50
I will say, a lot of super big collectors, like heavyweight collectors with collections more valuable than a nice house, are often wearing Octos in steel or titanium these days. It seems to be a favorite across the board. From starter collectors to establ...
