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.

Introducing The New Baume & Mercier Baumatic Moon Phases Date 10756 & 10758

Two elegant timepieces bring fresh aesthetics to the Baumatic collection

Since its founding in 1830, Baume & Mercier has built a reputation for crafting elegant watches that continues to captivate enthusiasts. This year, Baume & Mercier unveiled the Baumatic Moon Phases Date models 10756 and 10758, featuring striking blue and gray dials.

The watches feature a classic 39 mm diameter and a 12.25 mm thickness, crafted from polished and brushed stainless steel. The dial is protected by a sapphire crystal, which is also used on the screw-down case back. A fluted crown ensures smooth and easy time-setting.

The watch features a grey or blue lacquered dial with a black gradient at the edges, offering a sleek appearance. Rhodium or gold-plated alpha hands and indices enhance the dial with a touch of elegance. At 6 o’clock, a moon phase indicator is displayed on a rotating disc adorned with a moon and stars. Encircling it is a date indicator that points to a ring numbered from 1 to 31. A minute track and numerals, printed in white, are positioned along the edges of the dial.

Both watches are powered by the BM14-1975AC1 movement, an automatic movement that offers 120 hours (5 days) of power reserve, and operates at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4Hz). The watch comes with a black or blue alligator leather strap and a stainless steel buckle. Priced at CHF 4,400, approximately equivalent to AED 19,400.
