Twenty years have passed since the realisation of the first signed Diagono Bulgari and to mark the occasion, the company presented the Diagono Calibre 303 at the recently concluded Basel Salon. The name is given by the number of components (303 to be precise) of the BVL 303 calibre self-winding mechanical movement (25.60 millimetres in diameter, 5.50 millimetres thick, 45-hour power reserve, 37 jewels, 21,600 vibrations per hour), visible through the sapphire crystal protecting the back. The three levels that characterise the dial are distinguished by the different finishes adopted: Satiné Soleil for the metal base; vertical treatment for the anthracite-coloured upper part; circular filets for the supplementary counters, operated by two pushers with a non-slip surface with vertical stripes. The indexes, hand-applied, are facetted and luminescent; also hand-applied is the external flange with minute track. Equipped with a steel case with a diameter of 42 millimetres, with double polished and satin finish, and 18-carat white gold bezel, the new Bulgari chronograph is water-resistant to 10 atmospheres.
