Initially presented in titanium, it now also comes in ceramic. Incredibly comfortable to wear and lightweight, it is the epitome of modern elegance. The lack of weight is unprecedented and brings a new perspective to these watches. The even more sophisticated skeletonized version plays with contrasts and undoubtedly appeals mainly to connoisseurs. In any case, Octo Finissimo clients are definitely unconventional, flaunting their originality and appreciative of innovative aesthetics. These individuals are not purchasing age-old legitimacy, but instead an aesthetic and technical challenge.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-34585 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Acr16993160423360-11805243.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"437\" height=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Acr16993160423360-11805243.png 594w, https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Acr16993160423360-11805243-255x300.png 255w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 437px) 100vw, 437px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Octo Finissimo Automatic Ceramic <\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>CASE : <\/b><\/span>ultra-thin ceramic (5.50 mm thick) with transparent caseback, ceramic-set ceramic crown ; water-resistant to 30 m <span class=\"s1\"><b>DIAMETER : <\/b><\/span>40 mm\u00a0<span class=\"s1\"><b>MOVEMENT : <\/b><\/span>ultra-thin mechanical hand-wound BVL Caliber 138 Finissimo, 60 h power reserve, thinnest in the world at 2.23 mm, platinum micro-rotor, manually decorated with C\u00f4tes de Gen\u00e8ve, beveled and circular-grained finishing <span class=\"s1\"><b>FUNCTIONS : <\/b><\/span>hours, minutes, small seconds <span class=\"s1\"><b>DIAL : <\/b><\/span>ceramic with ceramic numerals <span class=\"s1\"><b>BRACELET : <\/b><\/span>ceramic with ceramic folding clasp<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-34588 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Acr16993160423360-12011241.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"230\" height=\"529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Acr16993160423360-12011241.png 328w, https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Acr16993160423360-12011241-130x300.png 130w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 230px) 100vw, 230px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Octo Finissimo Skeleton Ceramic <\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>CASE : <\/b><\/span>ultra-thin ceramic (5.50 mm thick) with transparent caseback, ceramic-set ceramic crown ; water-resistant to 30 m <span class=\"s1\"><b>DIAMETER : <\/b><\/span>40 mm\u00a0<span class=\"s1\"><b>MOVEMENT : <\/b><\/span>ultra-thin (2.35 mm) skeleton mechanical hand-wound BVL Caliber 128SK Finissimo, 65 h power reserve <span class=\"s1\"><b>FUNCTIONS : <\/b><\/span>hours, minutes, small seconds and power-reserve indicator <span class=\"s1\"><b>BRACELET : <\/b><\/span>ceramic with ceramic folding clasp<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the ongoing saga of its thinness records (five to date), the Octo Finissimo holds [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":34583,"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\/34595"}],"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=34595"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34595\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34596,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34595\/revisions\/34596"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34583"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34595"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34595"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gmtmag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34595"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
