Bianchet UltraFino Monaco Limited Edition

To mark its debut in the world’s first all-electric powerboat racing championship, Team Monaco partners with Bianchet to introduce an exclusive limited edition of 98 tourbillons in the colours of the Principality.

Team Monaco recently entered the E1 Series season in Jeddah, in the presence of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco, marking a new chapter for the Principality at the crossroads of innovation, sustainability and performance. Racing under the patronage of the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, the team embodies Monaco’s forward-looking vision, one that embraces technological progress while respecting the marine environment.

Joining this commitment to responsible performance as Official Watch Partner, Bianchet, the independent Swiss watchmaker driven by similar values of efficient-flowing design, engineering excellence and high performance, has created an exclusive limited edition, in tribute to the Principality: the UltraFino Monaco.

Ultra-light, ultra resistant, ultra chic

A limited edition of just 98 pieces, a subtle nod to Monaco’s country code, the UltraFino Monaco is dressed in the Principality’s iconic red and white. The watch captures the spirit of Monaco through a contemporary lens: light, resistant and uncompromisingly chic. Its composite case and ultra-light flying tourbillon in titanium, are designed for demanding environments, while its proportions follow the natural harmony of the Golden Ratio, a signature of Bianchet’s architectural approach.

The case is crafted from white quartz-fiber composite, a high-performance material derived from ultra-pure silica fibers and natural quartz. Originally developed for advanced industrial and aerospace applications, this composite offers exceptional mechanical strength, resistance and durability, while significantly reducing weight. Beyond its technical advantages, it reflects a thoughtful approach to material innovation, prioritising efficiency, longevity and responsible performance over traditional conventions.

Every detail reflects a shared mindset: performance through elegance, innovation with intention.

A shared passion, a singular vision

For Bianchet, whose creations are conceived as architectural structures in motion, this partnership represents an extension of its philosophy beyond watchmaking, into a world where design, resistance and lightness are essential.

We design our timepieces as instruments of performance, shaped by engineering but guided by emotion. Team Monaco’s commitment to innovation and responsible competition resonates deeply with our own journey. This collaboration is about passion, performance and meaning.” — Rodolfo Festa Bianchet, Founder & CEO of BIANCHET

Both Team Monaco and Bianchet share the common belief that true performance is born from balance, between power and control, innovation and purpose, precision and emotion.

Team Monaco is proud to welcome Bianchet as its Official Watch Sponsor, uniting Monaco’s new era of sustainable racing with the luxury Swiss watchmaker renowned for its fusion of artistry and performance. Together, we share a passion for elegance in motion, where every fraction of a second counts and every detail reflects our pursuit of perfection. Bianchet’s commitment to aesthetic harmony, cutting-edge engineering, and modern sporting excellence makes them a natural partner for Team Monaco as we enter our first sport racing under the Principality's flag, the E1 Series.” — Maxime Nocher & Chris Taylor, Co-Founders of Team Monaco E1

An invitation to belong

The UltraFino Monaco is not simply a timepiece, but an invitation into a shared story. The 98 owners will be welcomed into an intimate community brought together by vision, passion and a respect for meaning and excellence.
