The new Octo Quadri-Retro Chronograph Gerald Genta Collection is crafted in steel and ceramics. The case measures 45mm and has a sapphire crystal. It is water resistant to 100 meters. With the new Bulgari Octo Quadri-Retro Chronograph automatic watch the Italian jewelry brand keeps on consolidating the legacy of the famous watch manufacturer Gerald Genta.

Movement is the Swiss automatic Gerald Genta in-house caliber GG7800 with four retrograde functions: minutes, date and chronograph hour and minute counters. It beats at 21,600 vph and has a power reserve of 45 hours.

It also provides a jumping-hour display through a window at 12 oclock, whereas the chronograph central direct-drive seconds hand is positioned in an unusual spot at 6 oclock. This choice ensures the hour indication is never hidden from view.

This column-wheel chronograph calibre is treated to traditional finishes epitomising horological excellence and accommodated within an imposing 4 mm-diameter steel case. The two chronograph pushpieces controlling the stop/start and reset functions, respectively positioned at 2 and 4 oclock, are perfectly integrated within the case middle to form a distinct facet. This construction respects the foundations of the octagonal-shaped design, by enabling them to discreetly frame and protect the crown set with an onyx cabochon.

The highly sophisticated dial is crafted in-house according to the extremely ancient cloisonn technique. It calls for a number of successive stages C including milling the recesses into which the lacquer is applied, varnishing, smoothing the surfaces, refiring the lacquer and polishing C resulting in the creation of a totally unique dial. The various display zones compose a beautifully structured overall effect combining a jet black background, silvered segments and black arcs of a circle with a chapter ring at 12 oclock, the date at 6 oclock, and chronograph hour and minute counters at 9 and 3 oclock respectively.

Originally inspired by dashboards of classic American muscle cars, the watch featured four retrograde indicators (minutes at 12 oclock, date at 6, a chronograph 12-hour totalizer at 9 and a 30-minute counter at 3 oclock) as well as a jumping hour indicator at 12 oclock. The new version of the chronograph retains the same basic dial layout, but comes in a new, less extravagant and more discreet design. As you can see on the pictures, the Bulgari by Gerald Genta Octo Quadri-Retro Chronograph is presented in an octagonal stainless steel case equipped with a ceramic bezel. The matte-black bezel not only offers unrivaled scratch-resistance, but also serves as a beautiful from for the art-deco-styled dial.
