LIVE Baselworld 2014 Bulgari new watches
Here are some of the stunning new watches seen at Baselworld 2014 at the Bulgari exhibit as I walkabout.
The bigger report will come soon from our colleagues.
Guido Terreni and Bulgari get serious about horology
Can you see a glimpse of the watch on his wrist?
The Ultra thin Octo movement and watch. More later.
Bulgari Roma gets an update with a fine mechanical movement
One of the two stars for Bulgari in 2014: Octo Tourbillon is the thinnest
Yes that is thin.........
This super complicated Bulgari would be fine for an admiral. It has constant force mechanism, marine chronometer-style escapement, column spiral and four gong Westminster chime minute repeater function.....egads!
Finally, the highest jewels meet watches for the ladies in 2014
All the gems move when stroked or the wrist is moved.

Can you guess where the minute repeater "pusher" or "slider" is?
No? it ain't got one! For 30m water resistance...something else was done.
A lot of air around the movement too for sound quality and to emphasise the four gongs.
Best seller Serpenti is updated
New BZero.1 with better straps and contemporary finish.

My old BZero.1 is a little dated now........ 
New Lucea or LVCEA range incorporates four different motifs from the Bulgari history to create the impossible: a contemporary iconic watch that is merely round.

Can you spot the elements used?

Enjoy.
Am I dreaming or the Roma now comes without a date window?
If it is the case, it would be great news!
