Part of Bulgari’s cherished Octo Roma line, the Naturalia collection offers a highly personal expression of luxury, allowing owners to choose from a spectrum of precious stones, case materials, and engraving options. The Bulgari Octo Roma descends from the Bulgari Roma designed by founder Sotirio Bulgari’s grandson Gianni, and also takes design cues from the multiple record-breaking Bulgari Octo Finissimo.

“We are thrilled to share the bold hues of Polychroma with the city of Los Angeles,” remarked Bulgari CEO Jean-Christophe Babin. “As we deepen our presence in the United States, our commitment remains to celebrate Bulgari’s Roman roots while embracing the distinct character and energy of each place we touch. The vibrancy of the Polychroma collection speaks not only to the legacy of Bulgari, but also the magnetic culture and constellation of Los Angeles.”
