Strap for Octo Finissimo Skeleton DLC / Alligator
Integrated bracelet: measurements, the most common questions, and the way to a made-to-measure strap.
Integrated bracelet
The Bulgari Octo 102777 is designed with a bracelet integrated into the case. For a compatible made-to-measure strap, the Casati Milano atelier builds it on your watch.

Frequently asked questions
Can I fit a standard strap on the Bulgari Octo 102777?
No, the bracelet is integrated into the octagonal case — there are no lugs compatible with standard straps. I've seen people try: it doesn't work. In the atelier I build the strap directly onto your case's geometry, shaping the attachment points by hand.
How does the bespoke strap work for the Octo?
It's created exclusively at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, by appointment only. I take measurements directly from your case, study the angles of the attachment points and craft the strap calibrated to the millimetre. It's work that demands time and precision — it can't be done over the phone.
Which leather do I recommend for the Bulgari Octo 102777?
Missi alligator. This watch is modern sculpture, pure black geometry — it deserves a leather that breathes movement and lightness. Alligator has that quality: fine grain, patina that evolves, durability that lasts. It doesn't compete with the case, it complements it.
How long does a well-made strap last?
It depends on how you live with it. A strap built properly, in quality leather, lasts 5-7 years of daily wear. Leather ages well if you care for it: don't leave it exposed to direct sunlight, protect it from excessive moisture. When it shows signs of fatigue, I can regenerate or rebuild it.
Does the Octo have a particular movement or is it the design that makes it unique?
It's the design that's radical — eight sides inspired by Roman architecture, a challenge to conventional round form. The movement is solid, but geometry defines it. For this reason, every detail around it — the strap included — must respect that statement of form. It's not an accessory, it's an ongoing conversation with the case.
The next step
