BUGATTI LAUNCHES SUPER SPORT COLLECTION

By pHiLip CHOng

T hree years after Bugatti launched

its first Super Sport watches, which was available in white gold, at Pebble Beach, alongside the car which has inspired its design, it has now unveiled its latest collection – with the much-anticipated new models made available in rose gold.
The Bugatti Super Sport movement is a collection that embodies the expression of Parmigiani Fleurier’ s fine watch making craftsmanship.
The manually wound Calibre Parmigiani 372( with power reserves that last for 10 days) was designed in two planes in order to match the contours of the new Bugatti watch.
On the wrist, the movement of the watch is presented at a 90 ° angle. On the upside, the balance and escape wheel bridges form an arc, reminiscent of the Bugatti oval. The balance is entirely visible, as is the circular bridge of the power reserve, calibrated to 10 days and placed in the centre.
The exceptionally slender profile of the Bugatti Super Sport might evoke the fuselage of a wing, but it was actually designed to reference the emblematic form of the case lugs of a Parmigiani Fleurier watch.
Bugatti hence becomes the unmistakable signature of the Parmigiani Fleurier style, adorned with the symbolic curves of the brand.
The retail price of a Parmigiani Fleurier watch is a cool RM1,052,500 million and it is available exclusively at The Hour Glass, one of Asia’ s leading luxury watch retailers with a major outlet located at Lot 2.41.00 on the second level of Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.
