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.

Atelier de Chronometrie

Hailing from Barcelona, a city far removed from the Swiss mountains, Atelier de Chronometrie crafts one-of-a-kind timepieces entirely by hand. The brand, co-founded by Moebius Rassmman, a watchmaker with over two decades of experience, and Santiago Martínez, a collector and vintage watch dealer specializing in Patek Philippe, shuns modern machinery like CNC in favor of traditional methods. Atelier de Chronometrie draws inspiration from classic design elements and employs conventional manufacturing techniques while incorporating completely restored and revamped vintage Omega movements to power their watches. In every aspect, the brand's creations are a testament to their dedication to authenticity and craftsmanship.
