Blac rubber might be a nice option/addition..... But black ceramic bezel doesn't make such a big impract to make it a new ref in the collection. Maybe the black bezel could be used for a different MVT variation, chrono, etc.

Cool picture of Cliwe Owen with the watch, but should be used as a watch ad. The average BVL perume customer isn't ready to purchase a luxury timepiece.... I believe Bulgari as an important brand will have to change its advertising policies...

A interesting comment made by a fellow PuristS that deserves it's own post.....

Hello all! A fellow PuristS ' Horogasm ' made a interesting and thought provoking comment to the announcement made to this post: bulgari.watchprosite.com / " GG safer bet, simply becoz i am not sure if the DR Endurer would endure, pun intended. the sports... 

The Bulgari Endurer is going to be Bulgari's homerun watch IMO

It will attract new customers to the Daniel Roth customer base, and these customers will be from the masses who like Offshores, Big Pilots, and Panerai's. The Endurer has the Daniel Roth DNA but with a slight sporty twist which makes the watch amazing and...

Maybe will come a black titanium version...under study.... Anjd yes, the endurer is going to be the core item for Bulgari....

Hello Capitan Marcus!

A black titanium would be a cool version of the Bulgari Endurer. I wonder if they will do a carbon fiber or some kind of high tech dial? -MW

Endurer VS Octo

 
 By: T2009 : October 21st, 2010-13:06
It is interessting to see that the Octo has been chosen as the watch ofthe year by "montres passion" magazine I am a fan of the new DR and GG Bulgari collection, but again, this prize does not mean much, it simply adds more leverage to the integration pro...

Thanks for sharing your thoughts T2009, Which do you think works better for the Endurer, a black rubber or ceramic bezel? Do you think Clive Owen would make a impact on collectors if he was featured in the watch ads? -MW

Hello fai9al_429, Thanks for the pic. So what would you say to someone looking for a new watch that they should consider a Bulgari DR or GG? Do you think these ads help get the message that the brand is trying to convey as a quality timepiece to those not... 

I think both collections offer great watches!

 
 By: fai9al_429 : October 22nd, 2010-17:49
But for me personally (having seen the watches in the metal) I prefer the DR Endurer However, I have never seen a Bulgari watch advertised or endorsed by a celebrity before except this picture of Clive Owen and the Endurer, which is actually an ad for the... 

thanks for sharing your input! [nt]

Thank you for sharing it. Love Clive Owen. They make a good pair, Julianne Moore and Clive Owen.

Full ceremic...

 
 By: PHK : November 1st, 2010-07:19
I would suggest a full ceremic version of endurer, as it will be totally scratch-free, which is important for a true sport watch... I love my full ceremic hublot BB KP very very much, as there is't a single scratch on the case..

re: Full Ceramic

 
 By: DRMW : November 1st, 2010-12:31
Hello PHK, Now that is a interesting idea to have a full ceramic piece! The problem with ceramic is that it's not possible with certain shapes and the well defined transition areas of the Endurer may be too complex for ceramic to be used. -MW

i missed this one!!

hi, to add a bit of colour to my comments, what i was trying to say, in context, was endurer vs the GG, set against a very competitative sports watch segment. i still stick by my choice of GG, for now. i may change my opinion in due course. i used to thin...
