Bulgari celebrates the 50th anniversary of the BVLGARI BVLGARI series, gold and marble carvings create a new legend

jewelry watches


 The charm of classics lies in the ability to constantly reshape yourself and still stand firm under the test of time. Just like the BVLGARI BVLGARI series, it has demonstrated Bulgari's bold and fearless creative spirit for 50 years since its birth, and often demonstrates the extraordinary attainments of the brand combining watchmaking and jewelry craftsmanship. The birth of this legendary work comes from a unique gift designed by Gianni Bulgari in Geneva's historic rue du Rhône No. 30 boutique. In 1975, the BVLGARI BVLGARI series was officially launched. With its subverted traditional design concept, it caused a huge resounding in the high-end watchmaking industry at that time. This is the first avant-garde work that combines jewelry, watches and fashion aesthetics. It not only became famous in one fell swoop, but also symbolized Bulgari's profound heritage and innovative spirit in the watch field since the 1920s.

In 1977, legendary designer Gérald Genta reinterpreted this series, making it Bulgari's first representative watch series, and also laid a solid foundation for Bulgari's future excellent watchmaking craftsmanship. BVLGARI BVLGARI perfectly embodies the brand cultural spirit, charming charm, elegance and absolute Italian style, becoming a unique style symbol. Because of this, the "BB" series is loved and favored by Roman high-season and international superstars. From Sting, George Michael, Tina Turner, to Zendaya, Susan Sarandon and Bill Gates, etc., the BVLGARI BVLGARI series transcends generations and becomes the best witness to the style of the times.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of this classic design that collectors can't put down, a total of four new BVLGARI BVLGARI commemorative watches are launched, presented on a marble dial, with watch diameters of 26 mm and 38 mm respectively. The shining marble has symbolized the grandeur and eternity of Rome since ancient times. Now, under the interpretation of Bulgari, it has been carefully polished and carved like a rare gem, reflecting the brand's respect for materials and ultimate craftsmanship. In fact, marble has long been an important element in Bulgari's creations, especially in jewelry works. However, applying it to watchmaking, especially parts as precise as dials, is a challenging craftsmanship test. Each watch is not only precious because of its complex skills, but also because of its unique natural texture, making it a unique existence in the world.

The two commemorative watches are engraved with special BVLGARI ROMA anniversary logos, using the "Verde Alpi" Alpine green marble dial and paired with a yellow K gold case; the other two are made of a rose gold case and a blue marble dial. Among them, the larger watch diameter style is made of "Blu Incanto" night blue marble, while the smaller watch diameter model is made of "Azzurro Infinito" ice blue marble dial. The small-size watch is set with diamond hour markers, showing a magnificent brilliance; the large-size watch is equipped with the BVL 191 Solotempo automatic movement, providing a 42-hour power reserve, both design and performance.

BVLGARI BVLGARI's classic double LOGO design is inspired by ancient Roman coins. It concisely and powerfully engraves the brand name into a link of the design, symbolizing unique identification and bold declaration. Its font design is also of unique significance, originating from the Roman inscription font used during the renovation of the Via Condotti flagship store in 1934, and has now become a distinctive symbol of the brand. The watch design is also deeply inspired by the eternal beauty of Rome. The round contour lines echo the solemnity and elegance of the Pantheon marble columns, and also remind people of the cylindrical structure in the colonnade of classical architecture. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of this classic series, Bulgari launched its first natural stone dial, reinterpreting the classic from a new perspective, presenting a contemporary performance paying tribute to eternal Rome and ultimate craftsmanship.

  Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani, Executive Director of Creative Products at Bulgari, said in an introduction to the four new marble dial watches that will be launched in 2025:BVLGARI BVLGARI watches are simple and elegant in design, always mastering the trend of the times and lasting for a long time. Its pure design perfectly reflects the core value of the brand without any complicated decoration. Now, Bulgari looks back at the original spirit of creation, combining modern technology with ultimate craftsmanship to give the works a new life."

At the same time, the BVLGARI BVLGARI Jewelry Series has also launched a new masterpiece, injecting new ideas into the highly representative 50th anniversary milestone, and boldly returning to the original intention of the original design from a contemporary perspective. From classic rings that can be turned and inlaid with a variety of gemstones to double-round engravings based on ancient Roman coins, each piece pays tribute to the brand's fearless history, recreating the series' iconic design aesthetics and showing the infinite charm of Italian creativity. The latest works include eye-catching yellow K-gold necklaces and complete bracelets, as well as versatile long chains created for diverse styles. The playful flip design is inlaid with mother-of-pearls on one side and onyx on the other side. It is also a timeless symbol of the series inherited to this day, and is paired with a thicker and more contemporary aesthetic classic handmade chain strap to recreate its style. In addition, two new style bracelets, rose gold inlaid mother-of-pearl, and yellow K gold with black onyx, blend daily luxury with iconic styles to show the immortal charm that transcends gender and generations.
