Bangkok provides a particularly fitting backdrop for Joe Taslim’s latest encounter with Bvlgari. Following our recent conversation with Bvlgari Product Creation Executive Director Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani, the Indonesian actor takes to the city’s streets for a series of images that place Bvlgari’s watchmaking within a more spontaneous, distinctly urban setting. From the architectural presence of the Octo Finissimo 37 to the sport-chic character of the Bvlgari Aluminium, the watches find a natural counterpart in Taslim’s own understated confidence—while Bangkok supplies the color, movement and sense of place.
