Bi-Color Tubogas Serpenti
The history of the Bulgari Serpenti began in the 1940s when the already glamorous brand introduced the Serpenti collection, which embodies sophistication and creativity. By inserting a watch dial into a Tubogas bracelet, Bulgari created a serpent-inspired watch (a design inspired by industrial woven-metal gas pipes). Over the years, the Bulgari Serpenti collection has grown to include watches, bracelets, rings, and other accessories and remains a cornerstone of the brand and a highly coveted collector's item.
This BVLGARI Bi-Color Tuboga Serpenti, a tension bangle bracelet watch from the 1990s, is the ideal accessory for any occasion, day or night. It features a 19 mm diameter round case encasing a dial with Arabic and baton-shaped hour markers for greater contrast.

An exquisite statement piece for your wrist, this BVLGARI Serpenti tension bangle bracelet watch is crafted in a two-twirl 18K tri-color gold coiling body forming the Tubogas bracelet that expands to fit most wrist sizes.
Tubogas translates to "gas pipe" and is the descriptive name given to a chain formed from a pair of interlocking gold strips wrapped tightly together. This creates a flexible, hollow tubular necklace/bracelet requiring no soldering.
