This dual mastery of \u2018shape\u2019 movements and of titanium, a metal that makes the case both sturdier and lighter, has been applied this year to the fundamentals of the Octo collection : the self-winding and chronograph models. A welcome means of making titanium available to a broader public, especially since this material often used in aerospace and medicine is particularly biocompatible. Few watch brands offer such a broad choice of titanium watches across so many different segments. At Baselworld 2018, Bulgari is reaffirming its authority in the field of masculine design with a powerful identity, while simultaneously focusing on horological content. So definitely an Octo, what else ? With or without a chronograph.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Octo l\u2019Originale Chronograph CASE : titanium with titanium crown and transparent back, water-resistant to 100m [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":29036,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[80],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29040"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/19"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29040"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29040\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29050,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29040\/revisions\/29050"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29036"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29040"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29040"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29040"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
