Bulgari Diagono Chronograph CH 35 S Stainless Steel
A timepiece that seamlessly blends history with contemporary design, the Bulgari Diagono embodies the essence of luxury and precision. First introduced in 1988, the Diagono marked Bulgari's first step into the world of high-end sports watches. Its name, "Diagono," pays homage to the ancient Greek word "agon," which signifies competition and performance, a testament to its sporting heritage. A harmonious fusion of classic elegance and modern aesthetics, the Diagono speaks to Bulgari’s unique aesthetic with its signature architectural case design, characterized by its unique lug system and circular bezel that features Bulgari’s name engraved deep into its surface. Over the years, the Bulgari Diagono has evolved, incorporating cutting-edge technology and innovative complications, but the example we have here is a bit more reserved, with a quartz movement and a simple black dial that lacks any script whatsoever besides “SWISS MADE” at 6 o’clock. Featuring white chronograph subdials and a date aperture, the Diagono maintains complete legibility while also retaining its signature aesthetic and unique feel on the wrist.
THE DIAL Featuring a black dial free from any form of branding, the Diagono's display remains distinctly Bulgari, with its lone Arabic numeral standing proudly at 12 o'clock in Bulgari's signature elongated font that has featured in their timepieces for years.
THE CONSTRUCTION Measuring just 35mm in diameter and sitting flat to the wrist thanks to its quartz movement, the Diagono is a timepiece that retains Bulgari's stylish Italian flair while also packing a punch of individuality with its engraved bezel and unique case shape.
