I really need to try one of these one - seems very compelling - finishing - ultra thin movement with a micro rotor - gotta love a good micro rotor! The price point is very very appealing especially with all the craziness in the watch market right now.

The only real question I have is how it's going to sit on my wrist with it's unique case and bracelet shape.

Having held the steel, ceramic, and titanium in the hand (bvlgari boutique at my mall) I must say my preference is for the titanium. The lightness of the watch matches its thin profile. I found that I liked the steel the least due to its weight, and I’m usually not one to complain about the weight of watches. The steel is definitely attractive due to the price and dial color options, but if I had to pick one it would be the titanium in a heartbeat. The price for a good condition used one is decent as well so I would have no trouble picking one up secondhand.

Hi all. This might be a stupid question, but I can’t seem to find an answer online and we no longer have a Bulgari Boutique in Dallas. Does anyone know if the leather straps from the original version will fit the new 100M version?

Yup, it was a BIG factor as i enjoy water sports. Have to admit, am kinda surprised it's been handling all the things I've done with it as she is sooo thin. But here she is, another day of two hours in the water, plus shower, and she's keeping great accuracy at +2 / day.

I got banned by my AD & wife from swimming with mine after knowing I swam with the RO 50m wr.

Mine seems to run about +1-2/24h on full wind and as it winds down it goes to minus values, overall if I rotate it with other watches and it never gets too low I averaging +0.4/24 over couple of weeks.

The straps work, I think I wrote in some other thread that I wrote to customer service and been told there is black shiny/matte alligator for 380eur and also assortment of calf straps in different colours.

Seems crazy, but ummm ok. Name and shame, which dealer was this? 50m is good, yet 100m with screw-down crown does add watersport durability.

^^^^ nice trilogy! Mazol tov and congrats! The Bvlgari looks the part and is so very modern next to the other two older designs.
