Pingtsai's 2012 overview of the Bulgari Serpenti collection highlights a pivotal moment for this iconic design, showcasing how diamond accents elevated its sophistication. Her insights into the aesthetic appeal of the ivory and black enamel versions, particularly their suitability for different skin tones, remain relevant for collectors appreciating the Serpenti's unique blend of strength and femininity. This article offers a valuable look back at a significant update to a beloved Bulgari classic.
The new Serpenti 2012 exhibits a modern interpretation of a classic design and historical motif. The Serpenti coiled watch was updated this year by adding diamond accents to the ivory or black enamel links. The look is busier but visually more stunning.
At the recent Couture Time by Watch Journal event in Las Vegas, Bulgari presented its new Basel watches to the US crowd. Here is a video of the new Serpenti 2012 pieces in ivory and black enamel with pink gold.
On the slender woman’s wrist, the watch looks exquisite. It commands attention and is strong yet feminine at the same time. Both pieces are striking in appearance and character. However, I do still prefer the ivory piece for fair skinned females and the black one perhaps will pair well with darker skin. The Serpenti is without a doubt so unique and this version with the diamond accents takes it to a higher level of luxury and sophistication.
Gentlemen, if you want to get something amazing for your special woman, this may get you more than a few favors. There is nothing more that a woman wants than to feel special and that can easily be achieved with Bulgari’s stunning Serpenti watch. I certainly wouldn’t mind having one to coil around my wrist from time to time. Which version do you prefer for your lady love? Black or Ivory?

They are sooooo beautiful and elegant. I agree that the Ivory version suits fair skin better and probably will match more outfits too. In any case, I love both Ivory and Black variants. Any woman who wears one of these will definitely get my attention! :) Cheers, Anthony
