Q: What is the Bvlgari Solotempo 35mm Ref. ST35S?
A: It’s a Swiss‑made, vintage Bvlgari wristwatch in stainless steel with a 35mm case, a blue dial featuring a date display, and a quartz movement. The signature fixed bezel is engraved “BVLGARI BVLGARI” for a refined, understated look.

Q: What movement does it use, and which battery is required?
A: The watch is powered by a Swiss quartz movement. Most examples use a common 1.55V silver‑oxide cell such as a 371 (SR920SW) or 377 (SR626SW); the exact battery can vary by movement variant, so please have a professional watchmaker confirm and replace it to avoid damage. Typical battery life is around 2–3 years depending on use and storage.

Q: How do I set the time and date on this quartz Solotempo?
A: The crown is typically push‑pull: Position 1 (first click) sets the date; Position 2 (second click) sets the time. Turn the crown gently to adjust. Avoid changing the date between approximately 8pm and 2am to protect the mechanism. After setting, press the crown fully back in to ensure proper operation.

Q: Is it water‑resistant, and can I swim with it?
A: As a vintage watch, water resistance cannot be guaranteed. Treat it as splash‑resistant at best and avoid showering, swimming, or submersion. If light water resistance is desired, have the gaskets inspected, replaced, and the watch pressure‑tested by an authorised watchmaker. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any exposure to moisture.

Q: What wrist size will it fit, and is 35mm considered unisex?
A: This example fits a wrist up to approximately 18cm. The 35mm case offers a classic mid‑size profile that suits many wrists and is widely worn unisex today, depending on personal style and preferences.

Q: Can the bracelet be resized or swapped for a strap?
A: Yes. We can size the bracelet for your wrist prior to shipping. Additional links can sometimes be sourced (subject to availability and potential cost). If you prefer a strap, compatible options can be fitted; please contact us to confirm the exact lug width and recommendations for this reference.

Q: What type of crystal does the ST35S use?
A: Many Solotempo models from this era feature a scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal, though specifics can vary by reference. We can confirm the crystal type on this particular watch upon request.

Q: Does the engraved BVLGARI bezel rotate, and how should I care for it?
A: The engraved bezel is fixed and does not rotate. For care, wipe the case and bezel with a soft microfibre cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, polishes, solvents, or ultrasonic cleaning on vintage pieces. If professional refinishing is desired, use a reputable watchmaker familiar with Bvlgari finishing to preserve the crisp engraving.

Q: How often should a quartz Solotempo be serviced?
A: Quartz watches typically need a battery replacement every 2–3 years. A full service is only required if there are issues (e.g., timekeeping problems, condensation, or worn seals). If you plan to expose the watch to moisture, periodic gasket replacement and water‑resistance testing are recommended.

Q: Is it authentic, and what is included?
A: A Retro Tale specialises in authentic luxury vintage accessories and professionally authenticates every item. This watch is Swiss‑made. Unless stated otherwise, vintage pieces may not include original box or papers; please refer to the listing—this example is delivered with no accessories. We stand behind our products and provide a 12‑month mechanical guarantee on all watches.
