Bulgari just unveiled what it terms as the fifth pillar of the Octo universe—timepieces that break with convention in their octagon shaped dials—and it’s called the Octo Roma. Officially unveiled in Geneva earlier this year the Octo Roma is 41 millimetres in size, features a self-winding Calibre BVL191 Solotempo movement with date and has a 42-hour power reserve. The watch is water resistant to 100 metres and comes in three variations: pink gold, steel or pink gold and steel, with black or brown alligator straps or steel bracelet. Bulgari states that the goal with the Octo Roma was to distil the spirit of the collection to its purest form, which it does with the new 41-millimetres size, and “smoother edges” that enhance the wearer’s comfort level.
