This Octo Finissimo Ultra Watch is Just 1.8mm Thick

This is Bulgari’s incredible Octo Finissimo Ultra Watch, which is so thin it looks like reality’s warping:

The sandblasted titanium watch is just 1.8mm thick, and the band is even thinner at 1.5mm.

“Octo Finissimo Ultra watch with mechanical manufacture ultra-thin movement, manual winding, regulator display, BVL180 caliber, 28'800vph (4hz) and 50 hours of power reserve. 40 mm case (1.80 mm thick) in sandblasted titanium, tungsten carbide main plate, hour and minute regulator displays in black PVD hands, second wheel with black index indicator, winding and time-setting wheels in stainless steel, stainless steel ratchet engraved with a unique QR code linked to an exclusive NFT artwork, sandblasted titanium bracelet with an integrated folding buckle.”

The exposed mechanisms look amazing, but I’m disappointed that a large chunk of the display is taken up by that silly QR code and its purpose. As Bulgari explains: “A unique QR code engraving offers the ability to connect to a NFT and the metaverse, bridging the mechanical world with that of a digital dimension.”

Then again, I say “I’m disappointed” as if I could actually afford to buy one of these. It’s limited edition and they’re only making 10 units, price unlisted.
