Bvlgari - An Adventure Through Time, The Watches - Part 5 of 5
For Part 4, please click here .
Several Rare Vintage Pieces....
Only 100 pieces of the 'Bvlgari ROMA' were made for Bvlgari's loyal customers in the 70's... could be a prelude to 'Bvglari Bvglari'.
Look at the strap, it reminds me of the belt I used before
Coming up is the Tubogas during the 80's. Only 2 masters (in the world) have the know-how to manufacture interlink band bracelet.
It takes a master at least 1 day just to produce one Tubogas.
Please click here to see the slide of the Tubogas fabrication, and you can also see the masters too.
This is 'The Snake' circa 1940s (with its mouth open) revealing the timepiece.... another signature piece by Bvlgari, highly complicated
strap design with delicate gemstone setting. Seemed to me this piece could be the start of the Tubogas idea.
Another vintage piece with complicated metal craftmanship.... the watch is beneath the diamond-studded bonnet.
The New World
The Assioma Decentralized Hours Retrograde (240 degree) with AM/PM Indication
The Assioma Masterpiece - Automatic Tourbilon - Perpetual Calender & GMT 2 Time Zones ( Limited to 20 pcs)
Housed with in-house movement - BVL 416 ( containing 416 parts).
The Bvlgari Bvlgari Minute Repeater & The Bvlgari Bvlgari Tourbilon
Bvlgari Bvlgari Minute Repeater (Limited to 15 pcs)
That's all from me....Kong

Impressive coverage Kong!
Great work just like your Tempus 2007 coverage! You give everyone who wasn't able to attend a hands-on look at this event. Much appreciated Kong! Cheers, Anthony
