Standing out from the Italian watchmakers other models is the BVLGARI Diagono wristwatch. The firm describes it this way: "Combining distinctive style, generously balanced proportions and cutting-edge technology, the Diagono Collection uses cutting-edge research to push the limits of the functional demands imposed upon it."

Today's offering showcases this distinctive mens aluminum Diagono watch with rubber bezel. The aluminum and rubber make the watch unusually lightweight for an automatic chronograph. It's a great watch for those who don't like the heavy chronos. And the contrasting "Panda" sub dials give it a nice look.

It is in pleasing original condition - it presents as 9.0 out of 10. The original rubber strap is in excellent condition.

It has just been fully serviced by a Master Watchmaker and is functioning perfectly. We have timed the watch in five positions. It continues to keep time on par with a new Bvlgari watch.

This is one generation older than the newest generation. The newest iteration of this watch still looks fairly similar to this one and retails for $8,750 + tax. This is an opportunity to own a lightly worn automatic Diagono chrono for a small fraction of the price of the new.

Included with the purchase is a one-year warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to the watch's performance.

Retail Replacement Value (for the very slightly updated model): $8,750.00 USD
