Bvlgari Model Numbers Explained: BV Codes and Serpenti Naming
What is my Bvlgari number? We hear that question at the counter most weeks. Our BVLGARI shelf holds 21 pieces right now, listed from $252 to $795. A Bvlgari BV6128-B at $376 and a Bvlgari BV40049I at $795 show why one code matters. Compared on list price and listed shape from our current inventory, 21 September 2026.
Bring the full line from inside the arm. We check it against shape and lens mix before we talk lenses or stock.
What do the BV letters and digits tell you on the temple?
BV plus digits names one exact Bvlgari shape in our list. BV8254 is listed as Square and BV40049I is listed as Oval. You need the full line from inside the arm with its suffix letter. The letters alone will not find your pair or your lens mix.
We see the mix-up with Bvlgari BV8254 at $536. Our file lists PINK GRADIENT GRAY LENSES WITH OPAL PINK FRAME with a second mix of SOILD GRAY LENSES WITH BLACK FRAME. Short code alone hides that. Send colour too.
The top of our list shows the same rule. Bvlgari BV40049I at $795 is listed as Oval with SOLID GRAY LENSES WITH BLACK FRAME in one mix. Oval. Small print. Big fit change. Copy it all.
Why does Serpenti not show in our current Bvlgari titles?
None of the titles in our current 21-piece BVLGARI list includes the word Serpenti. We checked the product titles as listed on 21 September 2026. That means we cannot show you a Serpenti code from stock. Use the full BV code from your temple or papers when you ask us.
Our current titles include Bvlgari BVB.ZERO140013I at $511, listed as Square, and Bvlgari BVB.ZERO140061I at $511, listed as Cat eye. Those strings are product titles as supplied. We do not add meaning beyond shape and price.

If you searched for Serpenti, use the BV digits instead. Bvlgari BV40012U at $525 is listed as Butterfly. Bvlgari BV8254 at $536 is listed as Square. A photo of the inner arm lets us match code to shape fast.
