The PuristSPro Bulgari P10 live!
A few personal notes…this is the first time I’ve seen this watch and to borrow a line from a well know celebrity: “That’s hot!”
Seriously Bulgari honored the PuristS community with a wonderfully built timepiece. The dial is highly polished, almost mirrored. Combined with the colored details it looks 1000 times better than the photos.
The casework is incredibly complex from the moveable lugs, curved case back, to the different finishings, it is a sculpture.
A view of the back
Looks nice on the wrist too.
Please accept my apologies for the qualities of the photos. I carried only a point and shoot. I am sure others will take much better pics of the watches.
Up next Audemars Piguet
I hope you guys are enjoying the quick posts.
Best, Mike
