Avoid Bulgari Costa Mesa. I purchased a watch at Bulgari for my wife. Within three months of the purchase the watch stopped working. We sent it back to the Bulgari store for repair/replacment. It took a significant amount of time for Bulgari to repair and return the watch. Wish this was the end of the story - but the watch quit working subsequent times. On each successive return, the Bulgari representatives became increasingly evasive and difficult to work with. The Bulgari representatives eventually resorted to blaming the watch failure on us saying my wife must have "abused" the watch. This accusation would be comical if the watch wasn't so expensive. On the last failure, post-repair-return from Bulgari, she had not even worn the watch! At this writing, the watch has been in the repair shop for a total approaching 6 months.

I would avoid purchasing anything from the Costa Mesa Bulgari store.

Wanna look like a star? These magnificent jewels and trendy accessories have adorned famous bodies for years.. The Scene
Shopping at Bulgari is certainly an exclusive affair: Somber-looking men in fine Italian suits stand about and keep discreet watch over the luxe showroom festooned in cool creams, with elegant mahogany chairs and subtle lighting. Royalty-worthy necklaces and bracelets lie in glass cases for the woman who can afford the equally royal price tag. How could Sotirio Bulgari have known that one day his name would be on more than 120-plus stores when he opened his tiny silver shop in Rome in 1884?

The Goods
Though chiefly a purveyor of precious, artistically crafted jewels (often adorning the necks and lobes of awards show attendees), such as delicious diamond and emerald rings, chokers and earrings, Bulgari has expanded into accessories in the last 10 years. Ultra-stylish Swiss-made precious metal watches; fresh, sensual fragrances; and fabulous Logomaniac silk scarves, flowing dresses and leather handbags are standouts. Prescriptive eyewear and ceramic giftware are also on the rise.

beautiful designs, but outrageous prices. bvgulari has very nice jewelry. the stores are warm and beautiful and branded well. i've been to the south coast plaza store with my wife many times and she's always loves something, but the prices are very expensive for what you really get. a good independent jewelers would be able to give you the same quality for much better value. buy bvlgari if you've got extra money to burn... otherwise... i'd keep shopping around
