Amazing how a few colour changes make huge difference

The white dial was destined to arrive but the rose gold markers and hands are surprising. Maybe even a little brash like a brassy blonde! I prefer the case, markers and hands to be the same metal. Rose gold with white dial is classical or even better, the Bulgari shade of yellow gold with white dial.


The blue strap on black dial/white metal  combination is not to my taste but that is subjective. Others may like it.

New Octo with White Dial - Just spotted!

 
 By: pingtsai : December 27th, 2013-16:43
During a recent visit to my local BVLGARI boutique, I came across an Octo with a white dial and rose gold numerals, hour markers and hands. Also saw a black face which they paired with a beautiful blue strap. What do you think?...  

Not to my taste

I much prefer the black dial on black croc or bracelet. The blue strap looks weird. And the white dial should be mother of pearl. Dean ...  

I like the blue strap..

I know the Bulgari is a bold brand. I always like blue very much and I have some watches in blue and I always get used that the dial and strap always both in blue. This is the first time I saw black dial with blue strap and it looks beautiful. Thank you f... 

The blue strap would be a better match with the white dial...

It makes the Black dial version a bit flashy. I wish Bulgari would offer luminous hands for the Octo. Marcus

comes to mind ...  

I don't think it's an AP copy at all

The Octo is totally different and doesn't even feel like a Royal Oak IMO. The case is vastly different, and the overall design and feel doesn't resemble a Royal Oak. That's just my 2 cents, Anthony

Wow didn't know these 2 new Octo variations existed

I'll be sure to check them out next time I'm near a Bulgari Boutique. I'm not sure about the white dial w/ brown strap version but I do like the black dial w/ blue strap. Maybe the white dial version would looks better with a yellow gold case instead of s... 

Not a fan, I much prefer the black dial!
