Meanwhile, for the first time, the tongue of the snake operates as a lever to open the head and the interior watch can fully detach from the head for easier after-sales servicing, preventing damage to the jewelry structure. The entire design, including the movement, was three years in the works. In fact, Buonamassa Stigliani says that it took 6 to 8 months just to perfect the shape of the case and head between the size, weight and movement.

While the movement is certainly the biggest news for the Serpenti, there have been other refinements including more details on the interior of the mouths from gem-setting to fine-finishing, as well as a slimmer body, neck and a flatter head. Even the ladies would love to have a mechanical movement for these kinds of watches.” He added that the company felt obliged to create the in-house movement for its high-jewelry Serpentis because, “These kind of pieces that cost a fortune, the idea to have a quartz movement starts to become something that is not interesting for this kind of market. journalists during a press conference Monday morning. “The idea behind this movement was to elevate the Serpenti as the best of our know-how,” he said in a small group of U.S. And while the company already laid claim to the world’s thinnest tourbillon movement in the Serpenti Seduttori, Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani, Bulgari’s creative director and head of watch design, says it actually takes its cues from the ultra-thin movements of the Finissimo line and zero components were used from the Seduttori tourbillon.

It’s the company’s latest twist on extreme thinness, following a series of multiple world record’s in its Octo Finissimo line for men. Bulgari’s however takes the cake for the thinnest at 2.5 mm versus JLC’s at 3.4 mm. The only other caliber other caliber to rival that claim is Jaeger-LeCoultre’s caliber 101, which is rectangular unlike Bulgari’s spherical creation. The new Piccolissimo (Italian for “very small”) BVL100 caliber is one of the smallest calibers in the world. The Serpenti is so iconic it hardly needs an update, but this year the Italian house decided to equip the model with its other area of expertise-ultra-slim watchmaking. Talk about striking! Bulgari’s latest high-jewelry Serpenti Misteriosi timepieces, not surprisingly, are the most seductive women’s watches in the LVMH lineup. It plays note C for the hours E, D and C for the quarters and E for the minutes. They are draw out with a file in order to hone the chords of the chime. The gongs are bent and formed by hand in several stages before being hardened at temperatures up to 1,652 degrees Fahrenheit before being cleaned and reheated in a 932-degree kiln, which gives the metal its superior sound. Nevertheless, it’s a serious complication piece featuring three gongs, visible on the dial side and attached directly to the body of the case, along with three openings on the side of the case for better sound amplification.

While the new hue is certainly electrifying, the numerals distract from the modern architecture of the BVL428 caliber with cut-out bridges in an ALD treatment, as well as a perforated surface made of alternating polished steel. The company also added hour indexes and an Arabic numeral at 12 o’clock.
