The Heritage

The Serpenti represents one of Bulgari's distinctive collections, characterized by the spiral design that recalls the shape of the snake. It is equipped with the Bulgari B033 quartz caliber with hour and minute indication. The case features a wraparound construction that adapts to the wrist through the characteristic serpentine shape.
Made to Measure

The strap for this watch is made to measure

On the Bulgari Serpenti 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.

FAQ

Can a custom-made leather strap be mounted on the Bulgari Serpenti 102128?

The Bulgari Serpenti 102128 features a proprietary integrated lug system: a standard straight-bar strap is not compatible with the case geometry. The artisanal solution involves bespoke construction at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>, where the strap is measured and crafted directly on the watch, ensuring visual continuity and perfect fit.

How does the custom strap-making process work for this model?

Casati Milano's atelier conducts precise metric surveying of the case and the owner's wrist during the appointment. Subsequently, the strap is constructed according to the original Bulgari lug specifications, then mounted and fitted on the watch to ensure impeccable alignment. This approach guarantees that the leather solution maintains the aesthetic balance of the original design.

Which leather type suits the character of the Bulgari Serpenti 102128?

Alligator or crocodile emphasizes the narrative animality of the watch, especially in dark tones that contrast with rose gold. Vintage calf leather, aged and naturally patinated, creates depth and restraint, enhancing the glow of the gold without competing visually. The choice depends on whether you seek formal seduction or understated refinement.

How long does an artisanal strap from Casati Milano last?

A strap crafted from exceptional leather with bespoke construction offers longevity of 5-10 years under ordinary wear, dependent on the chosen material and maintenance. Leather ages naturally, developing patina that increases aesthetic value over time. Casati Milano provides care guidance to extend durability.

Does the Bulgari Serpenti 102128 hold its value over time?

The Serpenti is a globally recognised design icon, and the 102128 reference represents a contemporary synthesis of this heritage. The aesthetic coherence of the rose gold and ceramic case, paired with the Bulgari calibre B033 movement, positions the piece as a stable collectible asset, especially if maintained in optimal condition.
