An On the Wrist Review

Bulgari Female Elegance Has a Sporty Side

Bulgari’s Diagono collection of watches for men and women carry a tradition of incorporating stylishness and practicality in casual watch wear.The name “Diagono” which is derived from the Greek word meaning “competition”, agon, designates all of Bulgari’s sportier watches and can be easily distinguishable by their signature single lug feature. The men’s Diagono line is extensive without a doubt. But why should men be the only ones to experience the charm of sporty watches and feel the character of their corresponding materials.  Luckily women have these options available to them in the Bulgari ladies watch collection. And perhaps one of the best choices is the Diagono Chronographe with ceramic bezel. With the perfect balance of casual sportiness, femininity and classic Bulgari design, the ladies Diagono Chronographe gives women the freedom to explore the more casual side of female elegance but still do it with style.

Bulgari’s sensitivity to the needs and desires of women has always been a stand-out point. Therefore it is not surprising that the Diagono Chronographe was created with the utmost consideration for what women may find appealing in a casual everyday watch. With the features that it offers, it is likely to connect more with the younger Bulgari fans.  From the rugged durable case design and larger sizing, to the contemporary styling and feminine detailing, everything about this watch attempts to fulfill the most basic desires of today’s stylish active women.

Case

The Diagono Chronographe features a sized-down version of Bulgari’s signature Diagono circular case in stainless steel with availability in rose gold as well. At 37mm,the ideal size is big enough to be considered a large watch for women but not overly large as to detract from its wearability. With larger watches being increasingly popular among women, the size of the Diagono Chronograph satisfies standards for contemporary styling and gives off an unpredictability factor from a brand that has traditionally placed smaller, jewelry inspired and simple looking watches on women’s wrists.

The stainless steel case has substantial weight and thickness to it when being held and likewise on the wrist as well. Women who aren’t accustomed to wearing bulkier heavier watches may need some time to get used to the extra weight and heft. Those who have worn larger watches before will appreciate this characteristic because the watch feels solid and of high quality.
