DIAGONO CALIBRO 303 BY BVLGARI : A PERFECT BLEND OF AESTHETIC AND TECHNICAL REFINEMENT
A subtle yet in-depth reinterpretation of a timeless model, respectful of its original values and more contemporary than ever
A distinctive style, generously balanced proportions, and resolutely technical content... the Diagono Collection from Bulgari brings into play cutting-edge formal research pushed to the limits of the functional demands imposed upon it. The new Diagono Calibro 303 Chronograph establishes itself as a perfect blend of aesthetic and technical refinement through its cleverly reworked shapes, dedicated to a model that is more decidedly contemporary than ever.
The Diagono line was born over twenty years ago and is now one of the rare watch models to have escaped the bonds of time to enjoy perpetual continuity in a sphere beyond the reach of ephemeral trends. Constantly evolving while never betraying its original values, Diagono is interpreted in variations on a sophisticated construction approach offering high added value and influencing both its form and substance.
Inspired by the Ancient Greek word agòn, meaning "competition", the name of the model evokes the Discobolus (or Disc Thrower statue) of Myron that inspired its styling, while enshrining the quintessence of dynamic and contemporary aesthetics. Thus solidly rooted in ancient cultural traditions, it bears noble testimony to their unfailing modernity.
A SUBSTANTIAL AND DELICATE IN-DEPTH MAKEOVER
The new interpretation of the Diagono Calibro 303 Chronograph stems from a substantial and delicate in-depth makeover conducted in harmony with the model's foundational codes. The bezel has been slimmed down while maintaining the double Brand logo engraved on its surface, albeit in smaller dimensions. This restructuring of the overall face of the watch creates a broader dial opening.
This guarantee of enhanced readability is all the more important in that the Diagono Calibro 303 Chronograph, a watch clearly embodying elegantly sophisticated workmanship, is first and foremost a high-precision timepiece devoted to measuring short times. The case thickness has been reduced and the lugs have been redesigned in order to ensure enhanced comfort on the wrist.
In addition to the central hours, minutes and chronograph sweep seconds hands, the dial features chronograph minute, running seconds and chronograph hour counters respectively positioned at 3, 6 and 9 o'clock -complemented by a date display at 4.30. The dial with its individually hand-applied facetted hour-markers underscores the strength of the inimitable Bulgari style signature.
Its complex multi-layered construction plays on volume and depth effects while ensuring perfect legibility of the information and extremely refined finishing. On the steel version, the predominantly black surface of the upper section elegantly alternates with the sunburst satin-brushed silver-toned decoration and vertical lines on the lower section. In the steel / 18K gold variation, the two dial plates are both silver-toned.
INTEGRATED MOVEMENT CONSTRUCTION
The new version of the Diagano Calibro 303 Chronograph is driven by a mechanical self-winding movement entirely assembled and finished by hand, BVL Calibre 303 (on an FPI 185 base movement). For connoisseurs, its construction with column wheel and vertical coupling-clutch denotes the ultimate expression of horological expertise. This sophisticated conception prevents the chronograph seconds hand from jerking during start, stop and reset operations, and thus enables a far more accurate and smooth distribution of the chronograph functions, accentuated by striated pushers ensuring an optimal grip.
This refined mechanism is visible through the sapphire crystal caseback and thereby reveals its finishing: Côtes de Genève, circular graining and sunburst satin-brushing. It is protected by a case composed of 75 parts in satin-brushed steel with polished angles; and a polished bezel in steel or 18K gold depending on the version. The powerful style of the case middle is distinguished by an encircling design that protects the crown. The Diagono Calibro 301 Chronograph is thus available with a steel case secured by a black leather strap or steel bracelet, as well as a steel / 18K gold version with a brown alligator leather strap.
The new Diagono Calibro 303 Chronograph embodies a concentrated blend of Swiss watchmaking know-how, infused with a perfectly proportioned quest for formal elegance.
