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.

Glossary

Dauphine hands

In watches refer to a type of hands used to indicate the time on the watch dial. These hands are characterized by their slim, tapering, and faceted shape, narrowing gradually from the base to a pointed tip.


Dauphine hands add an elegant and refined look to the watch. They were first used in royal and luxury watches in the 18th century. The name "dauphine" is derived from the French word for "crown prince."
