    SummaryBVLGARI's new releases at LVMH Watch Week 2025 celebrate the "Art of Gold"The unveiling spotlights the ancient-coin Maglia Milanese Monete secret watch and the diamond-set Tubogas ManchetteBoth models feature ultra-miniature Piccolissimo or Lady Solotempo manufacture movementsAt LVMH Watch Week 2026, BVLGARI celebrates the "Art of Gold," weaving a narrative thread between its Roman heritage and high-precision Swiss watchmaking. This year, the Maison draws deep into its roots to reinvent two of its most enduring icons: the historic Monete and the serpentine Tubogas. Through masterful goldsmithing and the use of ultra-miniature manufacture movements, BVLGARI presents a collection that captures the spirit of the times while remaining anchored in the architectural beauty of Antiquity.Maglia Milanese Monete Secret Watchhttps://hypebeast.com/image/2026/01/17/bulgari-lvmh-watch-week-2026-release-info-002.jpgThe Maglia Milanese Monete Secret Watch is a radiant tribute to Eternal Rome, centered around an authentic silver coin from 198–297 AD depicting Emperor Caracalla. This "secret" timepiece features a geometric octagonal case in rose gold, meticulously set with brilliant-cut diamonds that frame the ancient artifact. In a first for the Maison, the watch is paired with a matching Milanese mesh bracelet - a structure of interlaced gold threads developed during the Renaissance - offering an irresistible, masterful suppleness that embraces the wrist. Upon opening the coin cover, a delicate white mother-of-pearl dial is revealed, punctuated by 12 diamond hour markers.Ticking beneath its historic exterior is the Piccolissimo BVP100, the world's smallest round manual-winding mechanical micro-movement. Measuring just 13.5 mm in diameter and weighing a mere 1.9 grams, this feat of engineering is now visible through a transparent caseback — another first for this caliber. The movement operates at a frequency of 21,600 vph and provides a 30-hour power reserve. This eclectic wristwatch represents a patient choreography of observation and intuition, combining ancient symbolism with the textural finesse of modern Milanese mesh.Tubogas ManchetteEvoking the vibrant Joie de Vivre of the 1970s, the Tubogas Manchette arrives as a radiant cuff of gold and diamonds animated by a fiery chromatic palette. The wide, single-coil yellow gold bracelet reprises the bold geometry of an archival 1974 model, punctuated by nearly 12 carats of diamonds and an array of colorful gemstones, including citrines, rubellites, amethysts, topazes and peridots. This technical achievement utilizes a modular construction where each ring is molded and polished before being assembled onto a flexible titanium blade, ensuring the motif flows seamlessly while preserving the supple architecture that defines the Tubogas line.At the heart of this jewelry-inspired timekeeper is a square 16mm yellow gold case with a pavé diamond dial. It houses the Lady Solotempo BVS100 manufacture self-winding movement, which blends the art of timekeeping with undeniable Italian allure. Despite its compact 19 mm diameter and 3.9 mm thickness, the caliber delivers an impressive 50-hour power reserve. The oscillating mass, visible through a sapphire caseback, is elegantly decorated with the BVLGARI logo and a sunray motif, confirming the Maison’s dual mastery as both a goldsmith and a sophisticated Swiss watchmaker.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast
