Kong's insightful coverage of LVMH Watch Week 2023 for BVLGARI highlights the brand's strategic focus on high-jewelry ladies' timepieces. His detailed post, featuring exclusive images and a video, provides an essential first look at key releases. This article synthesizes community reactions to BVLGARI's direction, particularly the highly anticipated BVLGARI BVLGARI x LISA Limited Edition and the intricate Serpenti Tubogas Infinity.

Some snapshots of BVLGARI pieces presented during the forth edition of the LVMH Watch Week 2023.

All the beautiful intricated pieces showcased were for The Ladies.

This piece is very likely to garner some attention from the market. The BULGARI BULGARI x LISA Limited Edition, is a special collaboration with a super popular K-Pop singer from the BlackPink - Lisa.

Understand she worked with the Bulgari team to come out with the dial design, a colour-shifting dial reflecting green, blue tinge, even purple, depends on where the light hits the dial.

The backcase is engraved with her favourite flower, edelweiss with her initial 'L" in the centre of the petals.

Supposedly to be limited to 300 pieces for 23mm case while 700 pieces for the 33mm.

Box with Lisa's signature ...

rNext is the iconic Serpenti Tubogas Infinity. This time, the serpent shed into a new complicated 'skin-links'' which a craftsman required about 150 hours to complete one piece.

Each link after moulded, gem-set and polished before assembled onto a titanium blade.

Available in either single or double-twirl.

Next is the Allegra series, with tangy brimming colours and shapes to communicate the idea that “Time is a Jewel”. The pieces would consist of these gems – tourmalines, citrines, rhodolites, peridots, pink or yellow sapphires – in a variety of joyful shapes.

Finally the Diva Dream's Collections ...

Key Points from the Discussion

Many watches marketed as 'women's watches' feature extensive gem-setting, yet a significant number of women collectors prefer timepieces without stones, with the exception of stones used as hour markers.
The bold Italian jewelry design heritage evident in these BVLGARI pieces would likely appeal to historical figures known for their appreciation of opulent jewelry, such as Queen Cleopatra and Elizabeth Taylor, a notable BVLGARI client.
BVLGARI's showcased collections, particularly the Allegra and Diva Dream series, strongly emphasize the brand's distinct Italian jewelry design, catering to ladies who appreciate both horology and high jewels.

Queen Cleopatra would be happy to receive any of these from her Roman partner. And Elizabeth Taylor (a real life Bulgari jewelry client) would probably approve of these as well.

Odd fact: a lot of if not most watches declared as a „women‘s watch“ have stones. Yet by far the most women I know prefer watches without stones (only exception being stones as indices sometimes).

Ladies who love watches and jewels need to look no further. Bulgari is showing their bold Italian jewelry design heritage in these.
