Frequently asked questions
What is the exact lug width of the Bulgari Octo 102738?
The lug width of the Bulgari Octo 102738 is 30 millimetres. This dimension represents the standard width of the case attachment points where the strap inserts. For accurate compatibility verification, we recommend measuring with a digital calliper, positioning it perpendicularly in the narrowest section of the lug.
Which strap is most suitable for the Bulgari Octo 102738?
We recommend alligator straps with vegetable tanning for the Bulgari Octo 102738, as they enhance the octagonal geometry of the case. Tapered calf leather in natural grain represents an elegant alternative for daily wear, whilst shell cordovan is ideal for those who appreciate a patina that evolves over time. All straps must have a 30mm lug width.
How do you change the strap on the Bulgari Octo 102738?
To change the strap on the 102738, it is necessary to remove the integrated original bracelet. This operation requires specialist watchmaker intervention with appropriate tools, as the Bulgari case attachment points have specific constructive characteristics. We recommend contacting Casati Milano for professional installation of the new strap with warranty.
Is it possible to fit an aftermarket strap on this Bulgari?
Yes, it is possible to fit an aftermarket strap provided it has a compatible 30mm lug width. Milano Straps offers a dedicated collection of straps for this dimension, customisable in length, colour and finish. Installation should be entrusted to specialised personnel to ensure correct adhesion and no lateral play.
How long does a leather strap last on the Bulgari Octo 102738?
An artisanal quality leather strap has an average lifespan of 3-5 years with regular daily use. Longevity depends on the tanning method used, maintenance treatment and climatic conditions. Casati Milano straps include an 18-month warranty and can be serviced or regenerated at the atelier to extend their useful life.
