Bracelets designed to resemble snakes have been made since the times of ancient Egypt. Bulgari was the first manufacturer to integrate a watch into this design, creating the legendary Serpenti. The bracelet is equally interesting, made out of one piece of wrapped metal and nicknamed "Tubogas," for it's resemblance to gas lines found within homes. The present example features a bracelet that wraps around the wrist twice, for a dramatic style. The Bulgari Serpenti has been extremely popular throughout its history, on the short list of many collectors. Here is a chance to own this watch in steel, an amazing value for this iconic timepiece.
