Collaborations in watchmaking often bring together the creativity of a brand and its chosen partner, whether they be artists, athletes, or designers. However, it’s far rarer to see two well-known watchmaking powerhouses join forces. The partnership between Bvlgari and MB&F is a fascinating case, as both brands serve as creative forces in the industry with anything they put their hands on.
Their latest collaboration, the Bvlgari x MB&F Serpenti, follows their 2021 partnership, which resulted in the MB&F x Bvlgari LM FlyingT Allegra launched at Dubai Watch Week. This time, the two brands reinterpret Bvlgari’s iconic Serpenti through the mechanical artistry of MB&F’s horological machines, merging biomorphic design with high-complication watchmaking in a way that only they can.
A smaller and more elegant size for the brand’s iconic moonphase
The British brand Christopher Ward is renowned for delivering quality timepieces at accessible prices, offering a diverse collection spanning dress, sports, and dive watches, each defined by distinctive features and designs. Following the releases of the C1 Moonphase, with its aventurine dial and earned a GPHG 2024 nomination, the brand is now releasing a smaller 37mm version, providing a more accessible and elegant alternative to the original 40.5mm model.
The case is crafted from stainless steel, featuring a combination of brushed and polished finishes for a refined appearance. Like the previous release, the dial is protected by a box-shaped sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating and retains the 13.3mm thickness. The case is further enhanced by a box sapphire exhibition case back, an upgrade from the flat glass used in the original 40.5mm version.
The aventurine dial is infused with reflective copper oxide flakes, creating a distinctive night sky effect. This captivating dial showcases only the hands and two oversized 3D moons prominently positioned at 12 o’clock, rather than being tucked away at the bottom of the dial. These moons are crafted from Globolight, a luminescent material that fuses ceramic with Super-LumiNova.
The watch is powered by the Caliber JJ04, an automatic movement built on the Sellita SW200-1 base, enhanced with Christopher Ward’s proprietary moonphase module. It features a DLC-finished rotor adorned with the brand’s signature twin-flags engraving. The movement operates at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz) and offers a power reserve of 38 hours.
The watch is paired with a blue leather strap, now featuring a tapered design that narrows to 16mm (down from the previous 20mm). This refinement is complemented by a redesigned stainless steel Bader clasp, ensuring a secure and stylish fit. The watch is priced at USD 2,325, which is approximately equivalent to AED 8,600.
