Good Points
They look good
Great fashion statement
Reliable
Bad Points
Very pricey
Lots of fakes around - go to a reputable jeweller and expect to pay around £500 or more for a good genuine Gucci watch
General Comments
For the price you pay for a genuine Gucci watch, I feel they are very over-rated. They look good, make a certain statement, are reliable and fashionable, but there are many other watches around that look as good, if not better, and are just as reliable. I only have one Gucci watch and it is genuine, but there are many fakes around, so you have to beware of buying from anywhere else but a reputable dealer.
My watch has that unmistakable G face in silver with a silver strap. Nothing special! Not really! I often prefer to wear either my FCUK watch or my Oasis watch, both very stylish, both a lot cheaper! But each to our own! My husband's Gucci watch was over £1000. Again, you would not know it was a Gucci unless you looked carefully, but it is a very nice watch! Worth the money? He thinks so, I'm not so sure!
