A new dial is the main novelty of this new Octo Finissimo S, with a vertical brushed silvered dial, it is a fully monochromatic version. In terms of case and bracelet, they present a satin-polished finish and exactly the novelties presented 1 year ago when the Octo Finissimo S was launched with a black and blue dial, having grown a little in dimensions, having 40mm width and 6.4mm thick, screwed crown, 100m of water resistance against the previous 30m, hour and minute hands in the centre and small seconds at 7 o’clock. Internally the automatic movement BVL138 with micro-rotor and only 2.23mm thick that offers up to 60 hours of power reserve. It will be available from May for € 12,300.

Octo Roma Carillon Tourbillion
It is perhaps the most interesting launch in terms of complications, as the name implies comes equipped with a tourbillon at 6 o’clock and a skeletonized dial protected by a cage structure, designed to maximize the sound of the hammers, where the BVL428 manual movement operates, it offers a minute repeater, 3 carillon hammers with Westminster chime and a comfortable 75 hours of power reserve, thanks to the two independent barrels that are part of the movement and that allows it to operate at 21,600 vph and still all the energy spent with carillon. The watch comes in a 44m wide titanium in black DLC-coated case in order to be able to couple the movement 35mm wide and 8.35mm thick. To finish a small interesting detail, the crown comes with the number 3 which refers to the number of carillon hammers that are part of its movement. It will be available as a Limited Edition of just 15 pieces from this month for € 290,000.
