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 to the Bulgari Octo 102975?
No—the bracelet is integrated into the case. There are no standard lugs to attach a strap. The octagonal architecture demands a custom solution. I build new attachment points directly onto your case, respecting the original geometry.
How does the custom strap process work for this Bulgari?
Come to <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, by appointment. I bring the watch to the bench, study every line of the octagonal case, and hand-build the leather attachment points. It's not a modification—it's a continuation of the design.
Which leather would you recommend for the Octo 102975?
Mississippi Alligator. This watch is pure titanium, sporty and geometric: alligator leather has the same structural tension, the same visual lightness. It doesn't weigh the watch down—it amplifies it. It ages with character, just like the case.
How long does a well-made strap last?
Between six and eight years with normal care. Noble leather—especially alligator—wears well if you don't expose it constantly to sun and humidity. When it starts to tire, come back to the atelier: I revitalise it or rebuild it. Good leather is an investment that moves with you.
Why is the Bulgari Octo's integrated bracelet so important?
Because it's not an accessory added on—it completes the octagonal geometry. The continuity between case and bracelet creates a visual flow that defines the entire piece. Breaking it with a generic strap would destroy the balance. That's why here in the atelier, we rebuild everything from scratch, bespoke.
The next step
The right strap isn’t chosen. It is built, together.
