- Bulgari partners with independent watchmaker MB & F to re -imagine its iconic snake for 2025.
- For the first time in 76 years, the female icon is transferred to without sex.

The world of the watch moves quickly, as well as Bulgarian. New in the year when you hit approximately 1000 hours on the market, 2025 has already proven this creativity in Haute Horlogerie It has no speed limit.
When LVMH Powerhouse Bulgari announced a new cooperation, watching lovers knew that something special would come. It turned out, they have been right since the Bulgarian design chief Fabrizio Bonamasa met MB & F’s Max Büsser to take a new approach to one of the most famous Italian watch groups in Italian.
The development of the snake
Serpenti was first launched in 1948, and it was one of the most famous watch groups in the history of Bulgarian, where it mixed Italian handicrafts with the attractiveness of the hypnotist from the snake. The oldest hours of Serpenti were distinguished by the classic Tubogas technology: a flexible and welded bracelet, allowing the roll smoothly around the wrist of its wearer similar to the snake. The vision of the permanent brand has reflected the vanguard and soon became a favorite of watch lovers at that time.

Of course, this is not the first cooperation between Bonamasa and Boser; Version 2021 of LM Flying T Algra It was an amazing mix of mechanical watch and high jewelry. Something the two brands were keen to keep it through this amazing version 2025.
This time, however, they are pushing in a completely different direction, and they throw the agreement outside the window by creating a horological statue, as they argue, it cannot be more complicated – bringing the iconic Bulgarian snake to the men’s world Haute Horlogerie For the first time in 76 years.
“The watch industry is about innovation and desire,” said Jean -Christophe Babin, CEO of Bulgarian. And innovative is definitely. The watch is characterized by rotating and accurate watch in the eyes of the snake – yes, you read it correctly – tells the snake time through its outlook. These are not just offers; They are treated with Super Luminova, which makes them delightful in the dark, giving the snake a life of its own.
Impossible Engineering
Mechanical mastery is not only clear in the sleeping view of the snake. At the heart of this creation, a huge 14 mm balance, visible through one of the five rubber windows of sapphire.
MB & F lovers may get to know some HM10 DNA, but this movement is a dedicated monster, a handcraft engine that works at 2.5 Hz. And because nothing can be simple, crowns are intelligently disguised as wheels in the rear lukewers, dealing with winding duties and clarifying time with car taste.
Getting all this to work while keeping it 30 million water resistance, in short, must be an arduous task. The team has gone through hundreds of 3D printed graphics and preliminary models, improving each millimeter of the issue-front, side, up and back-because, unlike traditional round hours, the mechanical snake should look good from any angle. The TAPRED TAIL is characterized by an auto -style network, while the triangular educational file makes the watch sleep as much as the time guard.
Group
The group comes in three flavors. Each of them is limited to 33 pieces: a 5 -tier Titanium model with blue eyes, a golden version of 18K with green eyes for traditional, and a variable of black stainless steel covered with PVD with amazing red eyes for those who prefer well with more edge. Each 45 -hour power package is associated with handcrafted rubber ribbons characterized by the Velcro system.
Here is kicking: only eight hours will be made per month; If you are planning to get your hands on this mechanical snake, it is better to act quickly – the time is the essence.
