Since 1946, Ducati has been building high performance motorcycles that are instantly recognizable. Held to the highest standards of quality, innovation and rider safety, the Bologna-based brand has an incredible record at motorcycle races all over the world. Their bikes have taken the championship at many prestigious races including MotoGP, Superbike World Championship, FIM Superstock 1000 Cup, Formula TT and many others. Ducati has a large following of enthusiasts, referring to themselves as the Ducatisti, with clubs all over the world.
The 40mm case of the watch is aluminum with a black rubber bezel emblazoned with the ever-popular Bvlgari Bvlgari logo. The indisputable star of the show is the dynamic dial with its brilliant and instantly recognizable Ducati matte red that draws attention. The black and white colorway of the tri-compax subdials (30-minute, 12-hour and small seconds functions) and gauge-inspired red hands to create a dashboard effect reminiscent of the famous motorcycles add to an incredible visual interest. The markers at 10, 11 and 12 o’clock are replaced by large, italicized Arabic numbers like those of the Ducati bike rev counter. The hour markers, hour and minute hands are all filled with Super- LumiNova for low-light visibility. The date window at the 4:30 position is well placed, blending in with the sporty theme without distracting from the dial.
