In the 15th and 16th century, Italian artists such as Leonardo Da Vinci excelled in creating both innovative and timelessly beautiful masterpieces. Driven by the same genius, Octo combines a unique octagonal design – inspired by the 310 AD Roman Massentius Basilica - with exceptional mechanisms. Epitome of resilience and finesse, the Octo Finissimo Automatic asserts its stature as a supremely contemporary timepiece bringing the strength of modern materials to the muscle of architectural design. Octo Finissimo Automatic watch with mechanical manufacture movement, automatic winding and platinum microrotor, small seconds, BVL 138 - Finissimo caliber (2.23 mm thick) decorated by hand with côtes de Genève, chamfering and perlage finishing. 40 mm extra-thin sandblasted 18 kt rose gold case (5.15 mm thick), transparent case back, sandblasted 18 kt rose gold crown set with ceramic, 18 kt rose gold dial, 18 kt rose gold bracelet and folding clasp. Water-resistant up to 30 metres. The bracelet has been adjusted to fit a wrist size of 19 cm in circumference, ensuring a normal fit, neither too loose nor too tight. All five links from the standard-size bracelet were carefully kept aside, allowing the buyer to adjust it further according to their wrist size and preferred fit.
