I think if you go with white gold you can def spot diamonds that are in the J-I range. H and above will stay white with white gold. I would not worry about color. For me, the cut is the most important and I have not been disappointed with Bvlgari yet. I just recently ordered the semi-diamond serpenti and waiting for it to arrive. Will share once I got it.

I have the white gold pave and I’ve never seen a trace of color in the I -J range. Bulgari is a high end jeweler and would never use anything less than D color. I can only speculate that the salesperson who opined Bulgari used J color diamonds was not adequately informed.

I asked the SA when I looked at one and they said no diamond cert since the diamonds are small. However, she said their diamonds are excellent cut, Vs+ and G or better.

That's strange because I recently bought the fiorever necklace and it came with a certificate confirming the diamond quality even though they are small (largest centre diamond is .1)
Fyi the diamonds are D-F and IF-VVS
Although one salesperson did tell me that for the fiorever range they only use diamonds within that range, which would imply that other collections may have diamonds with lower grading perhaps...

Just got mine Serpenti semi pave diamond in rose gold. Love the look and the diamonds are so sparkly. Once thing I can say is that I missed the heavy weight of gold that Bvlgari used to do. I do understand that the price of gold is high but for the price they charged for these new items, they can make them a bit heavier. This bracelet weighted 23.1g and cost $9450, while my regular, not the narrow version, b.zero1 is 48.6g. This is not just with Bvlgari thou. Everyone is making their jewelry with less and less gold but charge more now a day.

I’m thinking of the B.zero1 bracelet with diamonds to mark a milestone in my life and for everyday wear. This will be my first higher end jewelry purchase. I’m a handbag girl transitioning to jewelry.
Can anyone give me any pros/cons I should consider before purchasing this piece. Thanks.

I live in the USA. I am going to Brussels in 2 weeks. Would the bracelet I am looking at be less expensive there? I don't know how to find out online.

This is a beauty. I saw it in-store and the diamond is sparkly. I would deff try it on and walk around the store for a bit though. These types of bracelets can be top-heavy and you may end up to have to re-adjust the charm around a lot.

I love the look of the bracelet. I am wondering if I can get away with wearing it a lot. Maybe even falling asleep in it. I know there are bracelets that are better for 24 hour wear. But 1) I love the look of this and 2) I want something I can look at constantly and think positive thoughts. I want this bracelet to be that so bad. Thanks everyone. I just know once I commit to it I can’t return it after wearing it. So I’m trying to consider the negatives first.

Thanks. I’m going to Brussels Dec 4. I will try it on at the boutique there. But damn I know once it’s on my arm I’ll be slapping down my card :biggrin:
