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.

Corum

Corum was founded in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, by Gaston Ries and his nephew, René Bannwart, in 1955. One year later, the first Corum's watches were produced. Corum's claim to fame came early on when the company introduced a watch made out of a $20 gold coin, which was an instant best-seller.

Corum offers a range of watch styles, including classic dress watches, sporty chronographs, and diving watches. Many of their watches feature unique designs and complications, such as the Admiral's Cup watch which has a distinctive 12-sided case and nautical pennants on the dial.

Corum is also known for its limited edition watches, which are produced in small numbers and often feature intricate designs and rare materials. These watches are highly sought after by collectors and watch enthusiasts.
