Gucci Watches Spell Luxury

I’m not a particularly huge fan of Gucci watches for men. There always seems something a little too overtly feminine about them. It’s difficult to deny the undoubted class in their designs and the precision engineering is there, but some how they fail to produce the goods.

We picked the Gucci G Metro watch out from their range because it is unquestionably stylish and reasonably priced for a luxury watch, retailing at around $1000 (£725). I’m still not seeing a watch here that screams masculinity but it’s still a very nice luxury piece.

According to Gucci via Daily Mail

“The white guillochépatterned dial of this classic, battery-powered timepiece is set beneath a curved sapphire crystal face within a stainles steel case and mounted on a tan alligator skin strap. A Swiss-made quartz movement guarantees millisecond accuracy, and it is also ‘water-resistant’ – in other words, it is not really suitable for serious swimming.”

I’d be interested in hearing whether you have ever owned a Gucci watch and whether it has lived up to expectations.
