Ping, Thanks for the interview. I always enjoy seeing what designers think of design. The BVLGARI Aluminium watch was a trendsetter for the current popularity of materials' fusion. Regards, MTF

....is an entrepreneur and owner of a high end luxury home furnishings business but he does know a lot about good design since he selects many of the products himself.

A designer commenting on design...

It's always interesting to hear what a designer thinks of some other product's design. I have a friend who is an architect who is very conscious of the design on watches, especially their dials. It's always a joy to hear his perceptions and opinions.

I agree...

I think that the material played a key role in his (or her wife's) choice

Even today, we don't see very often aluminium watches. The watch looks great on his wrist but I think that at his place I would not hesitate to go to the Diagono Chronograph! Fx

He did mention that it's time for a new watch ...

...perhaps he will choose the Diagono Chronograph. Yes I very pleased that the watch he wore for so long was such a special model Bulgari.

Thanks for the interview

Seems like Mr. Wilkov doesn't talk much with his short answers :P Does he have any other watches he wears since he seems not to wear his Bulgari every day? Maybe for his next major anniversary, his wife will buy him another Bulgari such as the ceramic Dia... 

I believe...

....he has an older model Hublot and perhaps eyeing a Panerai, not sure. He is an extremely busy man so although I would like to ask him more questions, I did not want to take up too much of his time.
