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

Disc

A disc is a flat and thin component used in a watch mechanism to display the time or additional functions such as a calendar, moon phase, and other complications. It carries the indicators that are sequentially displayed through an aperture on the watch dial.


The disc is mounted on the central shaft of the watch and is connected to a precise mechanism of the watch movement, allowing it to rotate consistently with the advancement or change of functions. The watch disc is considered an important part of the watch design and contributes to the accurate and easy reading of the complications.
