Bulgari’s latest incarnation of the Serpenti watch bracelet extravagantly reimagines a classic accessory. The jeweler’s snake-inspired timekeepers “were a hit when they were introduced in the late 1940s” and “have continued to rule the wrists of fashion icons through the years.” The latest made-to-order line is available in 18-karat gold, white gold, or rose gold, with your choice of emerald, onyx, and sapphire. The watch face is “cunningly concealed” inside the serpent’s head—a nod to the bracelet’s 1960s and ’70s ancestors. Elizabeth Taylor wore one on the set while filming Cleopatra.
