Bulgari

I agree completely GEO

 

Im still not shure that I get it, why this move was such a great idea!!! Im quite saddened by it actually.....just cant see these very special pieces and the rest of the GGs under the Bulgari label. Both GG and DR for that matter are very unique products with very strong features and traditions even though they are young brands in relative terms it is hard to see these designs as Bulgari products. the co-labeling with both names on the dial seems confusing at best, andmy guess is that it is just transitional thing until they sell out the existing products and they start puttjng out new designs.
I just wish they would not have done this.

Thoughts on a Bulgari Fantasy?...

Hi everyone! One of the product lines of Gerald Genta that have always fascinated me was the GG Mickey Fantasy collection. I've always felt that this series of watches added a fun and whimsical touch to the world of horology by combining the well-known an...

I think it would be cool to do a 'Retro' GG with a retro 'Steamboat Willie' on it. Add a clear caseback with the mouse ears on the rotor and you got one awesome piece! -MW This message has been edited by DRMW on 2010-02-05 22:35:42

How about Minnie Mouse...

Hi ED-209, It'll be cool if in the future, the collection expands to have Minnie Mouse limited edition for the ladies, whilst keeping the Mickey Mouse for the gents. Clear case back with either Mickey or Minnie head would be awesome. So, can Bulgari pleas... 

Keep these Fantasy watches alive

IMHO the Mickey watches should be offered as a retrograde and jumping hour models. Simple watches like Gerald Genta used to make them and please not with a hand for the seconds, that simply never worked with the jumping hour. When the hour jumped, the han...

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. From the sneak peak we saw from the Trapani video, there's definitely hints about GG/DR watches with their logos and Bulgari. I think having both logos is a little too much, but I'd like to see what is debuted at Baselwor... 

Thanks for your thoughts on the Fantasy series

Hi GEO, thanks for sharing your thoughts on the Fantasy series. If you were to design the next dial for the LE Mickey GG, would it be a a variation of the racing,golfing, aviation Mickey? Or a new activity? Regards, ED-209

Hi Ed, If I were to design a Mickey; wow that would be something, I think I would 'design' a 39mm case with the Classic Mickey, like the original version. Maybe a bit more detail, like a painted Mickey on top of a guilloche dial Plain dial, one hand that ... 

Current Mickey is cuter IMO

I think Bulgari should continue with the Fantasy line and expand on the different offerings. These characters have a cultural resonance, and brand recognition all their own, so why not create a new Bulgari Fantasy watch?! Cheers, Daos

Good idea about Mickey

Hi Daos, Thanks for your thoughts. I like the current Mickey too and hope that Bulgari continues the Fantasy line. Regards, ED-209
