Tag: Bulgari Octo replica watch

Golden State Warriors, you are on notice. If our A-list line up of regular Bulgari Octo wearers decided to, mythically speaking, join forces on a basketball court in their on-screen personas, you’d be done. Crushed. Eliminated. Defused. Skewered.

From snipers to Spartan warriors, Moonlight Sonatas (lovely Adrien, just lovely) and devastating good looks, our Octo Octet has every possible scenario covered, on and off the court. Maybe we’ve had too much time on our hands, or spent too long analysing Met Gala wristwear, but we’ve gone ahead and drawn up, not just the Octo’s starting five (with allocated positions), but a pretty hard-hitting bench too.

Next step, making this full court press happen. If anybody knows the now retired LeBron, let’s give him the project….

The Starting Five

1. David Gandy
Power forward
Height: 191cm

It’s a scientific fact that the only thing sharper than the facets of the Octo are David Gandy’s cheekbones. On court he’s the guy who doesn’t bother faking when he charges the ring, because he wouldn’t know how to fake anything, not least his personal style. He wears a rose gold Octo, because he’s an all-round class act.

2. Gerard Butler
Point guard
Height: 188cm

Get out of the way, just get out of the way. Did you not see Gerard in 300? Those abs alone could tear you apart like the soft bread roll you really are. Butler is most often seen wearing a blue-dialled Octo, the perfect match for his icy Scottish eyes.

3, Eric Bana
Forward
Height: 189cm

Always good to have an Aussie in the mix. Bana is known as a swiss replica watch lover, with a varied collection including pieces by Panerai and TAG Heuer. Here he shows the casual dressiness of the Octo with salt, pepper and no tie. If you’re manning him up, just remember, you wouldn’t like him when he’s angry.

4. Bradley Cooper
Centre
Height: 185cm

Every team needs a sharp shooter, but that wouldn’t be Cooper’s role with the kind of beefy rig he developed for American Sniper. He’s the equal shortest on the squad, but also the heaviest, so he’d pin down the centre in this mix. Cooper is a sharp dresser, with a preppy, tailored look that’s a good match for the clean lines of the Octo.

5. Adrien Brody
Small forward
Height: 185cm

We can only imagine Brody would be as elegant on court as on screen. With those dextrous hands, best demonstrated in The Pianist, he must be able to palm a basketball all day and we can only begin to imagine the finesse of a free throw. He wears the Octo like he was born to do it.

The Bench

Jeremy Renner – Insert bomb emoji, because he’s that, all day

Jared Leto – Everyone will be terrified of him after the Suicide Squad comes out

Ian Somerhalder – Ian Somer-who? Still has a way to go to get off the pine, but looks nice enough in an Octo 

More inspired than ever by the creative strength of Italian design, the iconic Bulgari Octo replica watch with its unique, strongly structured case is now reinvented in a highly contemporary and opulent black exterior.

Bulgari associates a black D.L.C. coating with pink gold in a highly diverse range of variations and possibilities. Devotees of fine contemporary replica watchmaking are thus offered an innovative and surprising model immediately asserting a flair for differentiation and distinctive character.

Thus arrayed in a black D.L.C. coating, the 110-facetted, structured case of the Octo replica watch is endowed with additional strength that is every inch Italian. It immediately conjures up certain creations in the field of architecture or contemporary furniture. Its highly technical and masculine side evokes Italian sports cars, or certain large modern yachts. It even carries a hint of stealth aircraft, as if to endow it with an additional touch of mystery and secrecy. A whole new field of expression thus opens up for this replica watch that is equally at ease with urban elegance as in life’s more fast-paced moments.

The Octo case is an extension of the Italian temperament. It is complex, yet it seems very simple. It is geometrical, but there is nothing rigid about it. It is elegant and yet consistently maintains a certain relaxed air that infuses life with a unique flavour.

Black lends a very powerful aura to the models in the Octo Ultranero range. This replica watch doesn’t just play the urbanite in sports gear.  It is instead a complete reinterpretation –through the creativity of its design – of a men’s timepiece epitomising the Bulgari style. The radical effectiveness of black is enhanced by the precious touch of pink gold, once again testifying to the two-fold replica watch and jewellery expertise of the Maison.

Depending on the version, clients can choose between an all-black replica watch in D.L.C.-coated steel fitted with a black rubber strap and subtly lit up only by pink gold hands and hour-markers, thus embodying the boldness of restraint; or the equally bold option of combining a black D.L.C.-coated case with a pink gold bezel. Clearly cut out for excellence, this exceptional replica watch is powered by calibres from the Bulgari replica watch Manufacture established in Switzerland. Such a noble replica watch deserved an equally aristocratic interior:

Octo Ultranero is presented right from its introduction with the world’s thinnest mechanical tourbillon movement, the Bulgari BVL 268 Finissimo calibre. The latter set a record at the time of its launch in 2014 that has remained unbroken ever since. The case of the Octo Ultranero Finissimo Tourbillon is made of black D.L.C.-coated titanium. The fabulous mechanical heart of the replica watch is revealed in its carriage visible at 6 o’clock on the black dial, whose very sobriety exalts the horological feat with exceptional elegance. This technical opulence is accentuated by pink gold elements in the finishing of the flying tourbillon measuring a mere 1.95 mm thick.

Depending on his desires, inspirations and usage, the connoisseur will be able to choose a version with a 41mm diameter powered by the Solotempo BVL 193 calibre. Dedicated to the measurement and display of time, this twin-barrel movement has a 50-hour power reserve and focuses on ensuring the precision of the hours, minutes, seconds, and date indications.

For an even sportier touch, others may opt for the Octo Velocissimo Chronograph powered by Calibre BVL 328, one of the most efficient on the market and capable of capturing the flow of time to the nearest tenth of a second.
