Venezianico Bucintoro 42 8221511

All about the Venezianico Bucintoro 42 - 8221511, which impresses with its black dial.

The Bucintoro is the galley of the Doge, the head of state of the Serenissima Republic of Venice. This boat was used to open the historical regatta, a sporting event in which the best rowers of Venice participated.

A Tribute to Speed on Water

Our chronograph is named after the Bucintoro, the magnificent ship with which the Doge of Venice inaugurated the annual rowing competition, today known as the "Regata Storica" (Historical Regatta). This regatta ideally combines the agonistic concept of speed on water with the elegance of tradition.

Versatile Design

The curved profile and proportions of the case make this chronograph an everyday companion, while also exhibiting a refined and noble aesthetic. With a comfortable leather strap or the elegant stainless steel bracelet, the Bucintoro offers an extremely versatile design that perfectly adapts to sporting contexts.

Sportiness on the Wrist

A chronograph is the ideal companion for all those who like it sporty. Its balanced case and dynamic design make it the perfect watch for your adventures, ready to measure speed with unique style and flair.

Chronograph Functions of the Venezianico Bucintoro 42 - 8221511

The Bucintoro features three sub-dials for the chronograph functions. The chronograph seconds hand is suspended on the central shaft, which also allows reading the speed (on the kilometer scale) via the tachymetric scale on the rehaut. The 30-minute chronograph counter is located at 9 o'clock and contrasts with the continuous seconds counter at 3 o'clock. Finally, the third sub-dial below shows the hours.

A New Case Shape

With a diameter of 42 mm, the Bucintoro features a very slim case with a thickness of 11.70 mm. This case shape, to which a domed sapphire crystal of 1.90 mm is added, represents an exceptional advantage compared to most automatic chronographs and guarantees a perfect fit even on the thinnest wrists.

Column Wheel and Vertical Clutch

Systems with column wheel and vertical clutch are the most precise, but they also solve the annoying phenomenon of the so-called "jumping hand" that occurs in systems that do not use them. The column wheel has a shape reminiscent of the top of a medieval crenellated wall. To ensure smoother engagement and thus a more pleasant user experience, each crank (i.e., each "column") must be hand-finished to remove even the smallest machining residues.
