BVLGARI

In Tadao Ando’s second reinterpretation of the Octo Finissimo, the influential Japanese architect draws on the Japanese concept of mikazuki that represents the yellow crescent in its transition to becoming a full moon – a symbol of the transitory nature of time. Like its predecessor, this 160-piece limited series features a spiral-engraved pattern unfurling from the base of the off-centre small seconds hand. This new model is also distinguished by a yellow gold crescent at 5 o’clock to signify hope and a prosperous future. Driving the watch is the ultraslim mechanical automatic Calibre BVL 138 with a 60-hour power reserve. Bvlgari Octo Finissimo Tadao Ando Limited Edition, 40mm, with a black sandblasted ceramic case and bracelet, and blue lacquered dial

CARTIER

Sporting rounded brancards and revisited dial proportions, the Tank Must design returns to great classicism – featuring elegant attributes right down to the smallest details, like a pearled cabochon crown and traditional ardillon buckle on leather strap versions. Faithful to the spirit of the ‘80s, this new Tank Must watch with a quartz movement is presented in three monochromatic colours: red (pictured), blue and green. Dressed in a fully chromatic look with matching straps, all three chic steel variants sport minimalist dials without Roman numerals or rail tracks. Cartier Tank Must (large model), 33.7mm by 25.5mm, in steel with a red lacquered dial
