About Bulgari Watches

Bulgari watches get their name from their founder Sotir Bulgari who lived from 1857 to 1932.

He moved from there to Corfu and then to Naples and by 1881 set out for Rome. When in Rome, he established his company and soon thereafter opened his second store in Via Sistina. The shop that he opened in Via Sistina was later substituted for what is now their flagship location in Via dei Condotti which was opened in 1905 by Sotir Bulgari and his two children, Constantino Bulgari and Giorgio Bulgari.
