Why We Love it

Ladies' watches, unfortunately, don’t get the attention they deserve.

It seems to be assumed that women are fine with shoddily designed timepieces devoid of soul. Of course, this is nonsense — there’s no reason whatsoever that a lady’s watch should be any less considered than a man’s!

Bulgari is one of few companies whose thoughtful ladies’ watches have risen to the top — perhaps because of the firm’s background as a jeweler. The Parentesi collection is best known for their easy-to-wear aesthetic and modular design. Parentesi, which translates to 'brackets' or 'parentheses,' debuted in 1982 and featured three distinguishable elements — an hourglass shape, bracket shape and finally another to fill in the cavity of the bracket. The beauty of this design is that each piece can be removed and/or adapted simply by removing one of these elements!

This piece combines the worlds of haute joaillerie and horology quite beautifully! Housed in a 21mm 18K yellow gold case, this piece features a stunning brushed champagne dial and an integrated yellow gold Parentesi cuff bracelet with matching factory diamond setting.

Powered by a quartz movement, this piece is Bulgari's bread and butter. Whether your intent is to stack this piece with additional wrist candy, or wearing it solo, this Bulgari Parentesi is primed to be the gem of any collection.

Brand Story

+
Founded by Greek entrepreneur and silversmith Sotirios Voulgaris in Rome in 1884, Bulgari has since become a luxury powerhouse.

Following its acquisition of the Gérald Genta and Daniel Roth brands from Singapore’s The Hour Glass in the early 2000s, the maison began a process of vertical integration that has allowed it to produce watches on par with the best from historical Swiss firms, the likes of which have stunned the world in the form of the Octo Finissimo collection. Indeed, having broken eight world records for thinness in as many years, the 2020s have proven Bulgari to be a watchmaker unparalleled in modern history.

In 2011, Bulgari was purchased by the LVMH Group, ensuring an allocation of resources and limelight that have placed the brand at the center of the watch buying public’s attention. From simple, time-only pieces to some of the world’s most complicated watches — and the world’s thinnest mechanical watch, full stop — Bulgari’s watchmaking division continues to develop some of the most stunning timepieces in the world, each imbued with a certain Roman charm and sophistication.
