Bulgari — the Italian luxury house founded in Rome in 1884 by Sotirios Voulgaris — brings a distinctly Mediterranean design sensibility to watchmaking, drawing on classical Greek and Roman antiquity, the architecture of the Eternal City, and the Italian tradition of bold, colorful jewelry to create watches that are immediately recognizable as expressions of the brand's particular visual identity. Bulgari's most important horological achievement is the Octo Finissimo, a collection of ultra-thin watches that has broken the world record for the thinnest watch category multiple times — including the thinnest tourbillon, the thinnest minute repeater, and the thinnest self-winding watch — achievements that have established Bulgari as a serious technical watchmaker beyond any question. The Serpenti, with its snake-coil bracelet wrapping around the wrist, is the brand's most iconic feminine design. The Diagono serves as the sports watch family, while the Lvcea and Octo Roma round out the collection. Pre-owned Bulgari watches span affordable entry points in the Diagono and steel Octo to highly collectible Finissimo tourbillons and vintage Serpenti jewelry watches. DeMesy & Co. in Dallas has been a trusted source for pre-owned Bulgari watches since 1987.
