The Assioma D Collection from Bvlgari, where the D stands for “diva”, is designed for femininity. The Blvgari Assioma D Womens Watch AA35C6SS provides a unique balance of flair and functionality which makes it an excellent choice for any woman looking to add some sparkle to her wardrobe.

This classic, elegant watch comes with the following features:

• Stainless steel case and bracelet
• Silver argente dial
• Quartz movement
• Scratch-resistant, sapphire crystal
• Water-resistant up to 50 meters (167 feet)

The stainless steel case and bracelet give this piece a streamlined and elegant look, and the completely silver look of the watch makes it able to double as a bracelet. The quartz movement feature provides a high-end sweeping motion. The scratch-resistant feature will help to retain the aesthetic appeal of the piece, ensuring that it remains beautiful for a lifetime. This watch is also water-resistant, making it practical and useful for an active woman.

Although this watch is feminine as it is, for some women it could seem a little plain. The Assioma D Collection also includes the breathtaking Bvlgari Assioma D Womens Watch AA35C6SDS. This piece is similar to the featured watch; however, it is inlaid with diamonds on either side of the dial, making it a flashier and more decorative piece.

For women who prefer watches that look like jewelry, the more plain Assioma piece could be a great option. The stainless steel band is as thick as the watch face, however, and fashion-conscious woman want to consider a piece with a thinner band.

This Assioma D piece is listed on Bvlgari’s American website at $5,200, a small price to pay for the famous Bvlgari quality and the fierce femininity that the Assioma D Collection promises. This watch would be a fantastic buy for a woman looking for a sleek and classy design without too much flash.

In place of diamond hour markers like the BZ30BSL/12, the BVLGARI B.zero1 Quartz Women’s Watch BZ30BSL includes white triangles pointing in towards the center hands marking each hour.  The silver hands shine brightly against the black background and easily read the time.  The crown, or button that turns to change the time, is located in the back of the case to avert the eyes only to its sophisticated appearances. This is all protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire glass. The entire 30mm/1.18cm case is made from a strong stainless steel, polished and ready to sparkle.

Cons:

• Price
• Blatant Advertising

Name-brand is the way to go, but BVLGARI takes it just a notch overboard by branding the stainless steel bezel twice with their logo to the point of resembling a coke bottle top.  Now, the traditional look of this watch allows this emblem to fade into the background a little, but the engravings still overpower the classiness.

While the price is on the lower side for BVLGARI watches, it still may reign too much for anyone other than the reserved elite.  The cost of this well-designed, Swiss-made wristwatch lists at $2200.00.

BVLGARI has been conducting Italian Magnificence for 125 years.  While at a party to celebrate this marked anniversary, Jessica Elbe can be seen sporting BVLGARI jewelry, as seen in US Town & Country magazine.

If these gorgeous, well-to-do women can pull off such a ravishing, designer look, so can you. The BVLGARI B.zero1 Quartz Women’s Watch BZ30BSL is a perfect addition to your wardrobe. It’s versatile, classic nature can be worn on any occasion and is a first-rate cost.

Femininity meets practicality in Bvlgari’s breathtaking Assioma D Collection, and one of the most beautiful pieces in the collection is the Bvlgari Assioma Womens Watch AA35CGSDS. This piece combines stainless steel and diamonds for a truly unique look that will compliment the wrist of any fashionista.

This gorgeous watch includes the following features:

• Silver dial and band
• Quartz movement
• Water resistant up to 50 meters (167 feet)
• Sapphire, scratch-resistant crystal

This watch is made out of stainless steel, with round-cut diamonds placed on either side of the watch face. The face itself is rectangular, with silver hour markings and numerals at the 12 and 6 o’clock hours. While the silver stainless steel of the watch is classic and timeless, the diamonds give the piece a distinct femininity which is lacking in women’s watches of a lesser caliber. The quartz movement that powers the Assioma piece ensures accurate time, a necessary feature for any timepiece. The scratch-resistant crystal that covers the face of the watch protects the aesthetic appeal of the watch, while the water-resistant feature could come in handy for the active woman.

This Assioma watch is listed on Bvlgari’s American website at $9,700.00, a steep price to pay for an accessory. However, Bvlgari’s notable history of quality may make it worth the price for those who have the means. Interestingly, it is by far the least expensive piece in the Assioma D Collection. Compared to other pieces such as the Bvlgari Assioma Womens Watch AAP31BGD1G, which is listed as $33,500.00, this watch is an affordable price for the quality that it promises.

This stunning Assioma watch is beautiful to be sure, and comes equipped with features that make it a practical accessory, such as quartz movement and water- and scratch-resistance. However, the cost-conscious buyer may wish to steer clear of the Bvlgari brand altogether, if this pricey piece is the most affordable of the bunch.

Ever since establishing itself in Rome in 1905, Bvlgari has developed a reputation for some of the finest Italian jewelry. But it wasn’t until 1980 that this same reputation for luxury was paired with the finest quality in Swiss watch making. And that’s just what a men’s chronograph and tachymeter like the Bvlgari Diagono Professional DP42BSLDCH best deploys — precise functionality with luxurious design.

The sporty dial displays a black vertical pattern with luminous hands, hour markers and the numeral 12 for visibility in the low light. The stainless steel tachymetric bezel of the Bvlgari Diagono Professional DP42BSLDCH is a useful feature for those who want to measure speed. And for a Swiss certified chronograph with automatic movement, there should be no problem with accuracy. The silver and black motif is contrasted only with red sub-dial hands and the second hand for quick readability. Lending a refined toughness, the band is a black alligator skin that closes with a three-blade stainless steel folding buckle.

Features:

• Automatic movement with 42-hour power reserve
• Officially certified Swiss chronometer with tachymeter
• Three-bladed stainless steel folding buckle
• 30-meter water resistance
• Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal
• Black alligator band
  

  Bvlgari Diagono Professional DP42BSSDSD $6,650

The Bottom Line:

Like all of the watches of Bvlgari Diagono Professional collection, the DP42BSLDCH offers the mark of high-quality watch making with a Swiss chronograph certification. This isn’t easy to get, but after it passes rigorous testing, mechanical parts are marked with an official serial from the COSC. The sub-dials and tachymeter of this one are great for those with their eye on sport and utility.  But part of the value of this watch also rests in the Bvlgari name. Overall, I would say this watch lands somewhere in the middle price range. If you want to trim a little expense, there are simpler chronometers in the collection of great quality. And if you want 18 kt gold, those pieces are also available for a price.

Bvlgari’s strong reputation for fine quality jewelry puts some serious class under the sea with this scuba watch. Not only does the Bvlgari Diagono Professional Men’s Watch DP42BSVDSD deliver a sophisticated style that’s right for several occasions, but outstanding underwater performance.

The medium-sized case is a 42 mm brushed stainless steel with a tread-like patterned black dial, projecting toughness and durability. In addition to the 12 and 6 o’clock numbers, the hour markers and hands are luminous for visibility in low light. And framing the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal is a unidirectional stainless steel bezel. Steel is also integrated into the rubber bracelet to add yet another layer of strength and handsome design.

The Bvlgari Diagono Professional DP42BSVDSD is part of a distinctive collection that emphasizes design and technical performance. Certified by the COSC (Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometers), not only are these chronographs water resistant up to 300 meters, but they have passed the most rigorous tests to ensure the Swiss standard in reliability and precision for a true “chronograph.”

What’s Under the Hood?

This sporty clock is the perfect response to the high demands of water-sports enthusiasts, delivering performance without foregoing aesthetics. The movement is automatic with a 42-hour power reserve and operates on a Dubois-Dupraz module for the calendar and chronograph. What does that actually mean? It means this thing’s sound. Inside the case of this watch are thoroughly tested Swiss mechanisms.

Features:

• Rubber and stainless steel bracelet
• Unidirectional rotating bezel
• Mechanical movement with automatic winding
• 42-hour power reserve
• Date window
• 300-meter water resistance
• COSC certified chronometer

The retail price on Bvlgari’s website is $5,900, but discounted prices with other online sellers ranged from $2,900 – $4,700. That makes this one of the most affordable watches in the Bvlgari Diagono Professional collection. If it’s within the budget, there are some up-scale versions of this pro scuba watch. The Bvlgari Diagono Professional DP42BGVDSD, pictured here, has an 18kt gold case and bracelet. It’s listed for $21,100 on their site, but as is usually the case, online retailers show offers for 20-25% less.

The Bvlgari Diagono Professional DP42BGVDSD is an 18kt gold option retailing for $21,100

The Bottom Line:

The Bvlgari Diagono Professional Men’s Watch DP42BSVDSD is a fine piece of equipment. I’d say the fine quality of this watch is located inside. There aren’t any titanium or 18kt gold parts. It’s just stainless steel and rubber. But the inner workings of this watch are exceptional.  For a dial that reads Bvlgari with such fine Swiss craftsmanship beneath it, this is not a bad price.

Just the timepiece for the guy who can’t remain in one time zone for long, this Bvlgari combines fine Italian design with the precision of Swiss watch making. The Bvlgari Diagono Professional Men’s Watch DP42C14GVDGMT offers easy reference to three different time zones with an exquisite 18 kt gold case.

Revealing its worldly character, the dial is anthracite with planisphere, complemented with gold hands, hour markers, and a sub-dial. Two small details of color appear on the red arrowheads of the second hand and date hand. Additionally, 18kt gold is utilized throughout the piece, forming the bidirectional bezel, case, band and ardillon buckle.

But this watch isn’t just an example of fine Italian jewelry making. Fine mechanical parts lie just beneath the dial that are certified by the Swiss, earning this watch a true “chronometer” title. Many watches call themselves chronographs, but only those that pass rigorous testing for precision by the COSC (Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometers) truly merit the name like this one does.

Features:

• 18 kt gold 42 mm case
• Anthracite with planisphere pattern dial
• Rubber and 18 kt gold band
• Automatic mechanical movement with 42-hour reserve power
• GMT 3 time zones
• 30-meter water resistance
• scratch-resistant sapphire crystal
  

  The Bvlgari Professional GMT DP42C14SSDGMT is a stainless steel version

The Bvlgari Diagono Professional DP42C14GVDGMT is the finer of two options in the GMT series. The price listed on the Bvlgari catalog is $23,200, but it’s available from other online sellers for $18,100. And if you’re willing to forego the 18 kt gold, you can shave off a considerable amount from that. The DP42C14SSDGMT model, for example, is a stainless steel version, which offers the same basic features for $8,350. To be sure, you could find it even cheaper from discount sellers as well.

Bottom Line:

If you’re a guy on the go, the ability to check multiple time zones quickly is undeniably useful. Because even if you change your watch to your current time zone, you still need to know other time zones for business calls and reaching loved ones. But that feature isn’t what will justify this kind of price. The only thing that can do that is the luxurious reputation of Bvlgari’s Italian jewelry. And in this case, they’ve even partnered with professional Swiss watch makers for absolute precision. That’s the watch that’s offered here. But, as noted earlier, if you’re willing to go with stainless steel instead of 18 kt gold, you can wear this watch for quite a bit less.

The Assioma was designed to recreate the simple demure of the 1950’s. Bvgarli did this by forming the watch out of a beautiful 18k yellow gold. Both the case and band glimmer against any light because of the high quality gold. The watch dial is white with a sapphire crystal face over it. Sapphire is scratch resistant, so you can count on your AA31WGG model to keep in prime condition. The gold case back is screwed in for safety and the entire case is only 1.22 inches in diameter. This dainty size makes it look lovely on any frame type. The band has a seven-inch strap that can be adjusted by removing links to fit your wrist. And the hidden folding clasp creates an even more elegant piece because the eye never meets a spot on the watch it doesn’t like. Plus, the clasp will make sure it never falls off! The Assioma is made in Switzerland, so you can be assured the time will always be extremely accurate due to their high quality Quartz movement. The bezel is also made from 18k gold and for added comfort, the crown pushes in. While the Assioma quartz yellow gold watch is waterproof up to 99 feet, it is not suggested you wear it in water. At a retail price of $21,800, this is not a watch you want to accidentally ruin.

Pros:

• High polish finish
• 24 month warranty
• High quality
• Well thought out design

Cons:

• Extremely expensive
• No date feature

Bvlgari’s Assioma D line of watches is made to represent Diva, Donna or women, and diamonds. If you like this watch, but aren’t sure it is the right one for you be sure to check out some of their similar designs such as the AAP26BGG, AAP31GG and AA26WGDIG. But the AA31WGG is no exception to Bvlgari’s luxury. This watch is obviously not meant for everyone because of its high cost. But if you have the money and want a classic, simple accessory with function, the Assioma is definitely a good option for you.

When a timepiece is truly made right, it also makes the man who wears it. At least that’s what comes to mind when you behold the Bvlgari Sotirio Men’s Watch SBP42BGLAC.

This classic two-toned 18kt pink gold case with a vertical-patterned black dial steals your attention effortlessly. The design is a classic one with a pink-gold Roman numeral at the 12 o’clock position and notches on all others. Another pink-gold arch splays the days of the month, which are indicated with a red-arrowed hand. Above, two smaller arches display both the month and day of the week. Banded with black alligator skin that fits with comfort and closes with an 18kt pink-gold ardillon buckle, this watch leaves no detail unfinished.

The Bvlgari Men’s SBP42BGLAC is perhaps one of the finest of the Bvlgari Sotirio collection, which is focused on combining classic and formal elegance with contemporary design. Putting style and distinction first, none in the collection uses a pronounced logo and all of the cases are specifically designed for a refined finish with direct lug integration.

Features:

The Sotirio Bvlgari Men's Watch SBP42BGLDR is a similar design for about half the price

• 18kt pink gold case
• 42 mm scratch-resistant sapphire crystal
• Black alligator band
• Month and day windows
• Date indicator hand
• 30 meter (99 feet) water resistance
• Swiss automatic movement with power reserve

Having long since established its reputation for fine jewelry with a Roman street address at Via dei Condotti in 1905, Bvlgari is no newcomer to Italian luxury. But the Bvlgari Sotirio Men’s Watch SB42WGLD/125 is, however, a new example of the arresting beauty they’ve made a name with.

First off, with a retail price of $33,800 on the Bvlgari website, this gorgeous timepiece is not for everyone. But you wouldn’t expect it to be. What you would expect, is something extraordinary enough to appeal to those possessing an uncommon sense of style and refinement. And that’s precisely the watch Bvlgari Sotirio SB42WGLD/125 delivers.

The 18kt yellow gold case houses a 42 mm white dial with a decorative vertical pattern that’s adorned with yellow gold hands, roman numerals, hour markers and topped with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. One more piece of 18kt yellow gold appears at the ardillon buckle, which secures the soft brown alligator band to your wrist.

This watch is one of the finer pieces within the Bvlgari Sotirio collection, focused on combining classic and formal elegance with contemporary design. Placing style and distinction first, none in the collection displays a big logo and each case is specially constructed for a refined finish and direct lug integration.

Features

• Brown alligator bracelet with 18kt yellow gold ardillon buckle
• 18kt yellow gold case with 42 mm diameter
• Swiss mechanical movement with automatic winding
• 55 hours of reserve power
• 30 meter (99 feet) water resistance
• Calendar window

Even though this watch is always going to be somewhat expensive, I was able to find it for $26,364 online, which is almost 25% off the retail price. There are, however, more affordable options within the Sotirio collection. I located the Bulgari Sotirio SBP42WGLDR for $13,900. And if you want the classic elegance of the Bvlgari Sotirio line but have a much lower price limit, the SB42WSLDR uses similar dial details on a stainless steel case. A quick search brought up an offer for $4,760.

This classic jeweler makes many elegant timepieces. And some of them aren’t as costly as the Bvlgari Sotirio SB42WGLD/125. But if premium construction with extremely fine materials is what you’re looking for, this one delivers a beautiful timepiece. Just remember that Bvlgari is a prestigious European jeweler, famous for luxurious accessories. That means you’re paying for premium craftsmanship, but it also means you’re paying for an exquisite piece of jewelry — not just a watch.

If you are looking for a designer watch that shows off your love for luxurious timepieces without exuding wasteful excess, you will enjoy the Bvlgari Sotirio SB42BSLDR men’s watch.

Whether you are deciding to buy a designer watch for the first time or you are expanding an already existing collection, you will enjoy this timepiece and all its high quality features. It is a great finishing touch for your attire. This classy watch will serve you well whether you are closing an important deal in a business meeting or enjoying a cocktail with friends. The craftsmanship, aesthetics, and brand name is all part of the allure of this watch. The black leather strap of the watch is made of durable alligator skin that is easily adjustable for comfortable fit around your wrist. The watch case is made of stainless steel, which looks great next to the black wrist band. The case measures 42 millimeters in diameter, so if you are only looking for small watches, this is not the watch for you. Inside the case, you will notice a black dial that nicely contrasts the silver colored hour and minute hands, which are easily legible. The hour signs are marked by silver rectangular marks, except the twelfth hour, which is shown by a roman numeral. You will notice that this is an automatic wrist watch with power reserve indicator that goes from the fifth to the seventh hour, which is designed to show the amount of remaining stored energy. Unlike manual mechanical watches, this watch has self-winding mechanism that you will not have to wind to keep the watch running. The face of the case is protected by sapphire, which will keep it free of scratches and any minor damages that might ruin the watch. This watch does not come cheap. Although listed for $7800, you will find this watch for $6600 at various sites online. Compared to most other collections of this brand, the price for this watch is actually on the low end and very reasonable.

Pros
• Leather strap made of alligator skin
• Sapphire window – scratch resistant crystal
• Watch case made of stainless steel
• Water resistance to 99 feet

Cons
• Automatic movement type – not as accurate as Quartz movement

Bottom line: If you are ready to invest your money on a timepiece, you should consider this Bvlgari Sotirio watch; it is stylish, versatile, and very durable.
