Many thanks for sharing your experience! I just saw on Bulgari website that the new steel OF in grey dial is available for purchase now. This must be just becoming available very recently. The GMT in SS is not available yet.
Anyone knows when this Octo Finissimo Chronograph GMT in SS will be available in the stores?
I have been waiting for it since the product announcement. Thanks! ...
Thanks for replying! I did visit a boutique in Jan or Feb,
and I was told that it might come out in May, and if not May, June. So I know that it is about time to come out. I posted here to see if anyone has seen it in store. I was monitoring their website and this model was not listed. But just now I saw this mod...
I have no clue
Bulgari knows more, but if an average Bulgari employer at a store knows something, how many of them knows it?
As it happens…
Just an hour ago I passed by a Bulgari shop largest HK and wandered in to ask them when they were expecting the new OF stainless steel - silver dial model. A simple question…you would have thought… The saleswomen pulled out their phones and started confer...
Did you get any coffee or champagne at least?
I guess they thought that you looked like a newbie 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Haha!
I actually refused a drink. Just wanted one piece of information and was on my way somewhere else (Phillips’ watch auction preview, actually). They were trying - too hard! - but I just wasn’t in the mood… Best E.
Many good times for your Bulgari grail
The OF is fantastic, and mine perpetual calendar grail watch is the new OF pp. Second the VC pp, but than i must save money for decades. The OF pp is more realistic. OF gmt in steel. It’s a masculine OF. Rugged and adventures. Good luck.
Yeah, a lot good things about the OF GMT. First, even chronograph GMT in one is very unusual yet very useful. Love the peripheral rotor which showcases the thin movement.
The new OF perpetual calendar is a stunning piece and I understand why it is your grail watch. Good luck and hope that you will get it one day!
Had very similar experiences with bulgari boutiques. They were very nice and tried their best, but were not able to answer most of my questions. Both in my area also only have a watchmaker available once per week to adjust bracelets
It seems to me, that bulgari boutiques are set up for „jewellery“ customers and most of their staff is not trained for or used to the typical watch afficionado
Such a shame…
Especially as my AD has closed. Now what to do?! Will have to find another pusher. Best E.
Unfortunate. Nothing worse than a poor sales person.
I don't ever visit any stores where I live, so I only get to ogle watch cases when I travel. Vegas is my usual spot for that, most every brand is represented. I think next time I visit, I will hang a sign around my neck showing where I am from and acknowl...
Not all are bad in Colorado
I seen a class AD at you tube. In my region in my country i am lucky by surrounded good watch sales points.
I have just received the watch after it took some time for my AD to get it.
I like the design and look which bring Genta heritage and Italian heritage to my collection. I admire the engineering feat of an ultra thin movement with chronograph and GMT in one, maybe due to my own engineering background. The peripheral rotor is reall...
Thanks! Yes, the sunburst blue dial is quite nice.
I like the ease of setting 2nd time zone with the button as well, with the home time in sundial staying unchanged
