Any Bvlgari / Bulgari wearers out there?

I actually got my diamond studs from Bulgari. They don't normally sell them, but they had been shipped to Beverly Hills for a celebrity photo shoot and then not used. I was going up and down Rodeo Drive to Tiffany, Cartier, Van Cleef, etc. to get an idea of what I liked and what the retail prices were. I was then going to go downtown to the jewelry district to buy them. But I went in to Bulgari and saw these 4.0 tw emerald cut F-IF earrings, and I fell in love. I actually even bargained with them on the price. That was several years ago, and I still wear them all the time. I also have a new B.Zero.1 five band ring in yellow gold that I bought myself for my birthday. I wear it on my middle finger, and get many compliments.

I gave my local boutique a call today. Unfortunately they told me it's not available in the UK. :sad: I did find out that it's a very reasonable US$305, and you can pre-order it online by going through the US version of the site. So maybe that can turn out to be a nice little treat for someone stateside. I'm just hoping it'll still be available when I go to the US mid next year... fingers crossed! :biggrin:

Thank you! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

I'll have to pop into my local Bulgari and see if they have that bracelet.

I'd love to see photos of your diamond studs. They sound unique and interesting.

It's been a while (as I had to get a US friend to get it for me), but the Serpenti leather bracelet is finally mine! :biggrin:

Looking at the BZero necklace for wife. She has an extra Yurman YG chain sitting around. Is there any reason I couldn't purchase the Bzero YG ring and put it on the chain? When I previously asked Bulgari this question, they said it wouldn't sit properly on the chain. Not sure if I was getting accurate info. Seems like perfect way to do it as it could then be worn as a ring as well. Anyone give this a try?

What about the RG/Black Ceramic ring on a YG chain? Too bizarre?

I think it will sit differently then the pendant. my bzero pendant is not even big enough to fit on my pinky!

It could still look nice on a chain but it will be much bigger then the pendant. I think the ring should be worn as a ring and the pendant really is a perfect size.

is she set on a pendant or does she want the versatility of a ring?

Strange but true - She isn't set on either - I am the one that loves buying the jewelry. Didn't realize the pendant was much smaller in size. She has a Cartier Love necklace that she wears daily so I doubt the pendant would get much use. The idea was if I bought the ring she could occassionaly wear it as a pendant as well. At least that was my reasoning. But sounds like ring is best left as a ring...
