A fascinating history...
A fascinating history of a jeweler who knew no bounds and had the audacity to make something incredibly daring and risque.
This is why I've liked Bulgari so much over the past decade; continuous risque designs in high jewelry pieces. Other brands may have more conservative and classic approaches. Bulgari is one of the few with something so much more different.
Definitely an impressive history when it comes to ladies watches. Although serpents aren't exactly my thing, I respect Bulgari's past, present, and continuing efforts to make high jewelry unique and different.
A Look at the Bulgari Ladies' Watch Story
We've previously shown a pictorial history of Bulgari's mens' watches spanning the last 80 years. It only seems fair to represent the feminine counterpart as well. Although the collection is less extensive and complicated in terms of the movement, it is n...
I love the Art Deco watches....
Thank you, Ping, for this survey of watches that I, and I'm sure many other readers here, had never seen before. While watches for gentlemen are the bread and butter for most watch companies, I suspect that the desingers prefer to create women's watches b...
Excellent read Ping. This is the reference article for Bulgari
ladies' watches. I've always wondered about the origins of the repeating patterns on their jewelry and now I know! I can't convince Amy to wear a snake though Thanks, Mike
I've been following BVLGARI for years and still learnt
lots of new information from this reference article. Thanks Ping! We've seen some of the vintage pieces at Bulgari exhibitions but not all in one report. One of the serpenti photos should be stunning....when it loads on my screen...... MTF
Never thought the brand from such angle...
... thanks for the history lecture and I am very much impressed. Thank you for the article, Ping! Best, Ken
I still have so much to learn about Bulgari, Ping!
I wasn't even aware of the Ipno, which actually looks like a really fun watch that would be at home in futuristic movies such as I, Robot or Minority Report! Also, I adore the mid-60s Serpenti watches! I would feel like Queen Cleopatra wearing such a love...

Thank you for this article, Ping . . .
. . . there was new and valuable information that I'm learning for the first time. I wasn't aware of lapel watches, nor the intricate process of making tubogas bracelets, until now. For all the attention we spend on the technical wizardry of cutting edge ...
Nice work!
Great reporing Ping and thank you for the research! I must keep the wife away from this thread! I do remember the B.zero line as it was such great design. However, as usual, all great design gets exploited and reused. Thank you and Happy CNY to the girls ...
Tubogas and the Serpenti collection
Thanks Ping for the comprehensive overview of the Bulgari ladies collection. From press release pics I used to think that the Serpenti was too bulky but only after seeing one in person did I finally realize that it is actually very feminine and much thinn...
Excellent write up!
Honestly I had no idea Bulgari had such a long history in watch making. Thanks so much for this!
