Octo Finissimo Chronograph GMT Sketch 43mm

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 43 mm case suggests

Bulgari Octo Finissimo Chronograph GMT Sketch 43mm measures 48.8 mm lug-to-lug on a 43 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.13 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 73% of the 7,421 watches in this database and longer than 88% of the 8 Bulgari watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 55 mm (2.17 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 66 mm (2.60 in) it starts to look compact. Below 48.8 mm (1.92 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 8.75 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 92% of the watches with a listed thickness.
