Bvlgari & MB&F Reimagine the Iconic Serpenti

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.

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona, which is arguably the most famous chronograph in the world, gained a huge popularity among watch enthusiasts, as it tells a story of innovation, style, and a strong connection to the world of motorsports since its name is taken from the Daytona race track in Daytona Beach, Florida, United States.

Amidst the flurry of novelties unveiled by Rolex during Watches & Wonders 2024, the "Le Mans" White Gold Daytona has been discontinued, and it's now been replaced by a yellow gold version. However, that's not all for the Daytona; Rolex is releasing two versions of the Cosmograph Daytona. One features a white dial with black counters, while the other showcases a reverse dial with a black disk and white counters.

What both timepieces have in common is the mother-of-pearl tri-compax counters and dials, and their 18k white gold 40 mm case, accentuated by a bezel adorned with 36 brilliant-cut diamonds and 8 diamonds on the indices. The new Cosmograph Daytona is powered by caliber 4131, an automatic movement with a Perpetual rotor, operating at 28,800 vph (4Hz), and offering 72 hours of power reserve.

The white version comes with an Oysterflex bracelet and a price of AED 251,000, while the other comes with an Oyster bracelet and a price of AED 286,300.
