Thanks everyone!! =)

Hello friends, I have just returned from an evening with Bulgari in Singapore and a most enjoyable evening it has definitely been. I was fortunate to be able to pose some of your questions to senior manager & Bulgari watch expert Fulvio Manini=) He told me that he was actually involved in the collaboration with Sincere, the conceptualization and ultimately the realization of this watch. Shockingly he knew by name exactly whom had sold me the watch. I was very pleased to hear that in fact only 20 pieces of this Sincere edition version of the watch have been made! So a very limited run indeed. He informed me that the Sincere logo was laser inscribed on the crown. I asked him some silly questions too. I explained that I like to keep the chrono running and he concurred that with the FP1185s vertical clutch this is fine. I said that of course you should not push the buttons under water but what if the chrono was already running and then the watch was submerged, would it be safe? He said yes – stating that as long as the buttons were not pushed under water, it would remain watertight. To answer some of your other questions. So far the watch has kept excellent time – not obviously gaining or losing any time (knock on wood). It does indeed have significant wrist presence – not because of it’s size but because of it’s design and style. It can be quite ‘shiny’ and eye catching – but never overly so. Some friends have commented that it looks very big despite it being smaller than the Panerai. I believe this is simply because the watch is more eye catching. They do however all agree that it is a very handsome watch. It conveys a different message to the Panerai. Whereas the Panerai was young and bold – the Bulgari is opulent and luxurious. It really is a fine timepiece which better reflects where I am in my life. The watch features a stainless steel deployant buckle as can be seen in these new pics. I didn’t get it serviced pre-acquisition. It was a vacuum packed piece – never opened or worn. Hope I don’t have to use the two-year warranty! Haha!! So there you have it=P Thank you all for you kind wishes. I really am very happy with it. Please feel free to ask any further questions you may have. Take care everyone. Regards, Bobby Stryker
