If it’s made the same way as the full diamond one, don’t worry about stretch. Did your SA show you the proper way to take it on and off? If you just open it All the way it will stretch. But if you do the partial open and slide your wrist in kinda sideways it is fine and won’t stretch. I’ve had mine for over a year worn almost every day, I take it off at night and put it on in the morning, no stretch. Just make sure you put it on the right way though. Congrats!!!

Hmm.. I’ve only notice that happened one time and I was surprised lol.. def find out the right way to take it on and off.. you don’t want to have it stretch out. It’s surprising that the diamond one would be more stiff. Actually when I was buying my bracelet the sample bracelet that I tried on was actually very stretched out.. I asked her about it, and she said this bracelet had been tried on by many people and opened and closed the wrong way. She showed me her bracelet that she had had for a few years now and it hasn’t stretched out at all because she made sure she put it on and off the right way. Let me know if you would like me to do a video

Not OP, but I would love a video. I have always admired your bracelet since you got it, and it is on my wishlist also.

Just got mine yesterday! But having trouble to put it on by myself. For those who has it, could you explain in detail how you do it without stretch the tension system? Pics are welcome. TIA

I think it is ok to be stretched when taking on and off? When I got mine I asked the SA about potential breakage, and she said unless you apply brute force to deliberately break the piece, putting it on and taking it off would not cause damage. The only repair she could recall was when a customer’s child played with it roughly
What I do is I put my wrist against the bracelet and manoeuvre it so that it “snaps” in place. Have to say, it does hurt a bit doing it this way though!

Thank you so much for your reply. Hope it wouldn’t hurt when we open it slightly.

Hi hi, just jumping in here as I have the RG serpenti and WG VCA clover. Coincidentally I tried paring the two yesterday and felt that it looked a bit messy… However the WG serpenti goes amazingly with the WG clover.
If you are only thinking of one, I may recommend the WG serpenti over the RG. My current dilemma with my RG is finding more bracelets to stack with it (a problem that I don’t have with the WG, as I could pair with other WG or YG pieces). So far I am only stacking the RG serpenti with WG and RG VCA perlee pearls of gold.
I recently tried on the Tiffany T1 in RG, and also the Diva in diamond and MOP. Still deciding!

There is a post under “Any Bulgari/Bulgari Wearers Out There”, #688 that suggests the proper way to open and close the bracelet. Check it out. It works for me. Btw, it looks gorgeous on you!

Thank you. I followed your thread and checked... it just said open half way and slide your wrist side ways in? Is that correct? Wish could see her video if you still have it.

I hold the bracelet parallel to my arm near the narrowest part of my wrist, I open it slightly for the head to slide over the top of my wrist, then I wind or move the tail part on. I do the same when removing it albeit the bracelet is at more of an angle. If you want to see the video, please reach out to @goldfish inasmuch as it is her video. I hope all this helps! Lmk.
