Bulgari Serpenti Viper Bracelet Wear and Tear?

[unhly_msqurade]

I'm considering purchasing the plain gold Serpenti Viper bracelet. Has anyone had this for a year or longer and can comment on the wear and tear? I tried it on at the boutique and was impressed with the flexibility. However, I'm concerned about stretching and warping over time. Any input would be appreciated, as this would be a huge purchase for me. Thank you!

I would ask Bulgari that question about stretching & if the bracelet does stretch is it repearable
I own several Bulgari Tubogas bracelets as well as the Tubogas watch, but I do not wear them daily

Very good idea to ask about repair policy if it does warp! Thank you!

I have the ring for over 10 years and never had a problem.

Bought my rose gold serpenti in 2021 and been wearing it daily. No problem here as long as you follow the instructions on putting it on. don't over-stretch it.

Ooh, thank you! I have an appointment to try on an XS on Saturday. I hope it’s a good fit!

I bought the plain rose gold bracelet in size small today! My lovely SA said that she has 1 client who wears hers 24/7 with no problems and that she’s never had a client have issues with stretching or warping. I was also pleased to hear that Bulgari can fix these bracelets if something happens to stretch or warp; if New York can’t fix it, it will go back to Rome. Thank you for your input and encouragement!

Do you know by any chance of the scratches show up on the bracelet surface as much as it does on a cartier love bracelet?

I have this bracelet with diamonds and it’s been great for 3-4 years already. Very comfortable to wear.

I have a bracelet with diamond at the head and tail and the gap seems bigger than when I purchased. I only have it like less than a month and wear less than 5 times. is this normal?

I think it's not uncommon. SA told me the coil inside is strong, made of titanium. I think it's strong by the sense that it will not break easily. However being a thin/soft metal, it will still "expand", though i read that yours is pretty new. Maybe you can check with bvlgari? By the way i recently got to know a lady who has the same piece and hers also has the gap which got bigger compared to brand new but hers is ~ 1.5yrs old.

Thanks for your response Purrsey. I'm worried that the gap will go bigger as I take my jewelry off every day. I'll check with a Bvlgari SA about this.. hope this is not a defective piece.

I have a tubogas serpenti bracelet and a viper ring, both with diamonds, a couple of years old. I wear the bracelet frequently and remove daily without any change. I thought the ring stretched a bit, but it turns out it was bc I lost a bit of weight. It actually did not change.
