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.

Dial

The dial is a flat disc that serves as the face of the watch, displaying the time, marks, numbers, and indicators that show the time, date, and other functions and information on the watch.

The dial is mounted in the watch case and is the main visual element that allows the user to read the time. It usually consists of a circular disc with the necessary time units such as hours, minutes, and seconds. Numbers, marks, hands, or windows are placed on the dial to indicate the appropriate time. The display can be marked with numbered indexes, represented by hands, or through digital windows.

In addition to providing time reading, the dial may have other elements such as a power reserve indicator, date display, moon phase indicator, or sub-dials for various functions. The dial is designed with diverse colors and patterns to add aesthetics and distinction to the watch.
