Maserati Teams up with Bulgari for Two New Watches, the $13K GranSport and the $31K GranLusso

Luxury automaker Maserati has joined with Bulgari to introduce two new timepieces. Debuting at the Frankfurt Motor Show, each new creation is a unique interpretation of Bulgari’s Octo Maserati Mono-Retro.

The two Italian companies have been working together on special edition timepieces since 2012. The newest additions to their collective design oeuvre? The Gransport and Granlusso watch models.

The most obvious feature is the dial design that pays homage to Maserati’s classic rev counter. Other elements like Geneva stripes, a tinted sapphire crystal display caseback, and polished bevels give the watches their distinctive looks.

Designed with a 41mm case and water resistance of up to 328 feet, the watches get power from an in-house BVL 262 automatic movement operating at 4Hz. Each of the watches also boast a retrograde minute counter, in addition to a digital jumping hour display.

At $12,800, the Bulgari Octo Maserati Mono-Retro GranSport comes in black DLC coated steel and will only be available to the first 30 buyers of the Maserati GranTurismo and GranCabrio vehicles. The Bulgari Octo Maserati Mono-Retro GranLusso comes in 18-karat pink gold and is available for $30,700.
