The Heritage
The strap for this watch is made to measure
On the Bulgari Octo the bracelet is drawn as part of the case: no catalogue strap will fit. In the atelier we take the measurements on the watch itself and build the strap on the piece — that is the work of Casati Milano.

Can you fit a standard strap on a Bulgari Octo 102104?
No, the bracelet is integrated directly into the case. The attachment doesn't follow standard Nato or common lugs, so a commercial strap won't fit. I craft the strap bespoke instead, modelled to the exact geometry of your case.
How does bespoke strap creation work for this model?
I follow the traditional method: you bring the watch to <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, by appointment only. I take measurements directly from your case, replicate the octagonal geometry and build the strap piece by piece on your 102104.
Which leather do you recommend for the Bulgari Octo?
I prefer Tuscan Leather with a burnished finish. It has the structure and patina that match the Octo's contemporary, sporty character—it ages naturally with grace and holds up for years without giving way. Mississippi Alligator is the alternative if you want a more architectural, polished look.
How long does a well-made strap last?
It depends on use and care. A good leather, worn regularly and allowed to breathe, lasts 4-6 years before showing real wear—and that wear becomes part of its beauty. Treat it well with occasional conditioning and the strap ages better than you'd expect.
Does the Octo have a particular design story behind those eight sides?
Yes. The eight facets echo Roman architecture—a number Bulgari has always tied to eternity and perfect proportion. It's no casual choice. That's why every detail of the strap must respect that geometry, or the watch loses its coherence.
The next step
