Strap for Serpenti Tubogas White Gold Diamond
Integrated bracelet: measurements, the most common questions, and the way to a made-to-measure strap.
Integrated bracelet
The Bulgari Serpenti 102005 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 you fit a standard strap on the Bulgari Serpenti 102005?
No, the bracelet is integrated into the case—there are no spring bars where a standard strap would attach. I've seen many clients ask. To change the strap, I build something new directly on your case, at the atelier.
How does a custom strap work for the Serpenti?
I work only at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, by appointment. I hold the case in my hands, measure the proprietary lugs, and handstitch the strap to that precise geometry. There's no other way.
Which leather would you recommend for the Bulgari Serpenti?
Mississippi alligator. The Serpenti has that sinuous, almost sculptural nature—the alligator scale speaks to the curves of the white gold case without betraying its character. Precious swift in dark tones works well if you prefer something more refined but less dramatic.
How long does a well-made strap last?
It depends on how you treat it. A well-constructed alligator has stayed with my clients for eight, even ten years of intelligent daily wear. Leather ages: scales soften, colour tells the story of the watch. If you clean it occasionally and don't forget it under the sun, it will surprise you.
Why does the Serpenti have an integrated bracelet in the case?
It's Bulgari's choice: the metal scale bracelet is not an accessory, it's architecture. Born from that Roman vision of the 1940s—every element fused together, like an metal sculpture. That's why any intervention requires specific expertise.
