Bvlgari, Daniel Roth and Gerald Genta.....

Bvlgari Group includes the brands Bvlgari, Daniel Roth and Gerald Genta.
So, we could see stamped in some of the photos...partial brand names (some in mirror-image just to confuse us):
....LGARI

So, whether movement, case or bracelet....they are all "in-house" Group manufactured. Each finished module is specific to that brand.
Still, Bvlgari have not yet managed to rear Swiss alligators for the straps!?
Regards,
MTF

not to get the hands dirty. Most machinists when gripping smaller parts, would not like to wear finger-cots as it muffles the sensitivity of the hand to feel just a very light grind. Since you have seen 'black' dirty, how about 'white' dirty ? This is mic...
It's amazing how specialized these machines are!

I love that the machine can work at producing the small parts of the bracelet for four hours before needing to be fed more material. Fascinating! Polishing the links looks like dirty work though! Check out the fingers on our friends in the photos! I hope ...
On the contrary...

One of the main advantages of CNC is that they are not specialised. That is their main advantage for small prodution runs. You do not need to commission dedicated machines, software takes care of that. In general, they are equipped with interchangable cut...
This is good to know...

...and clever that the machines can be redeployed to other tasks fairly easily. You are, as always, very informative! Thanks! Cheers, Daos
