Ten years ago, Bulgari’s Octo Finissimo Tourbillon made a groundbreaking debut, launching the brand’s relentless pursuit of ultra-thin mastery in watchmaking. Today, the Octo Finissimo series reigns supreme with nine world records, its engineering marvels matched only by its strikingly bold geometry—a true icon of contemporary design. The streamlined Octo Finissimo Automatic, introduced in 2017, has since become a canvas for artistic collaborations with visionaries like Tadao Ando, Kazuyo Sejima, and Mo Coppoletta. Now, French conceptual artist Laurent Grasso joins the roster, bringing a mesmerizing twist to the all-blue PVD titanium model with a dial transformed into an ethereal, iridescent cloudscape.

Grasso, renowned for his surreal exploration of reality, bends the boundaries of perception with themes of electromagnetic energy, the paranormal, and cosmic mystery. His work plays with floating eyes, celestial bodies, and haunting clouds that probe the unknowns of time and space. Inspired by these motifs, Grasso envisioned the watch dial as a delicate, rainbow-reflecting cloud, where light dances through suspended droplets in a dreamlike, spectral display.
