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

Ebauche

Is a French term that means "blank" or "incomplete." It refers to an unfinished watch movement. Ebauches are manufactured by specialized companies and sold to other watch companies for use in watchmaking.


Ebauches serve as a foundation for developing and producing watch movements. They are customized and modified to meet the needs of watch manufacturers. Ebauches are used as a starting point for developing movements instead of building them from scratch, which saves time and cost in watch production.

Ebauches are available in various sizes and specifications, and they can be customized and modified according to the requirements of the watch manufacturer or specific design requests. Ebauches are used in a wide range of watches, from simple timepieces to luxury watches with advanced complications.
