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

diamond-cut

multi-faceted indexes" describes watch markers (indexes) or hands or other parts that are crafted with multiple angled surfaces, similar to the facets on a diamond. The "diamond-cut" refers to the precise cutting process used to create these facets, which enhances light reflection and gives the markers a sparkling, textured appearance. This technique makes the indexes stand out visually, adding depth and brilliance to the dial. The multi-faceted design ensures that the markers catch and reflect light from different angles, increasing their visibility and aesthetic appeal.
