Very striking watch. Substantial and eye catching. The crystal is slightly curved causing a magnification effect of the face. Size of watch can make it uncomfortable in hot weather, and the three crowns can sometimes bind against your wrist during normal/active movements. Black PVD coating will also wear off edges of band if used on a desk regularly (it's not some kind of super-hardened material like ceramic, although for the price it should be). It's a very nice watch but NOT worth the full retail price of $1795. If you can find it around 1/2 off I think that's more like what it feels.

Beautiful watch...I get complimented on it all the time. Very unique and different black PVD design. Highly recommended.

I was looking forward to getting this watch for a long time. Unfortunately when I got it, the watch did not look nearly as sharp and impressive in person. I am a big fan of Gucci, but this watch does not look great in person. First off it's not black, it's more of a dark grey. Second the stainless steel is not finished that smoothly. The proportion of the face was a lot bigger than expected. I returned the watch. I am glad that Amazon did make it very easy to return and get a refund for an expensive item like this. I think the Gucci store would have been difficult!

I LOVE this watch! I get complimented all the time. Definitely an eye catcher for those that are looking for something visually striking. I only wear this watch on the weekends because i feel as if it is too flashy to wear to work or at formal events.
It is pretty big, but not too big, a bit heavy as well, BUT all people have different styles and preferences when it comes to jewelry and fashion accessories.
Sometimes when I fold my wrist inwards it tends to unhook the strap causing the straps to come apart (hence the 4 stars).

Otherwise, BEAUTIFUL watch.

p.s.:: the ladies love it...if i could i'd give it 4.5 STARS

Watch looks fantastic on the arm. Not too great for rock climbing, but still looks good even if you scratch the screen. Of course at the end of the day, it just keeps the time.

I've owned this watch for 3 yrs now and have had to send it in for repair twice. The chronograph sweeper does not like to stay aligned at 12 o'clock. The minute sweeper on the chronograph has the same issue. Sometimes the watch just stops for no reason, not a battery issue since this happened 2 months after a battery change. The watch is not as reliable as say my Tag Heuer or Omega but it's definitely an eye catcher. Great weekend watch since it goes well with a lot of outfits.

I had never purchased anything from Amazon before, but I had seen this watch in the Gucci showroom and had fallen in love. About a month ago I came across it again on Amazon and I noticed that it was about half the price it would have been if I'd bought it directly from Gucci.

However, savings aside, I must admit I was apprehensive about purchasing the watch online. I live in Sydney, Australia and one of my major concerns was that my order would have to travel all the way from the United States, but I must say that the service I received from Amazon was amazing! The watch was delivered within about five days placing my order - I was constantly kept up-to-date as to its progress and it was a very safe, easy and secure way to purchase such an expensive item. It is an absolutely stunning watch and the whole process has set my fears of buying online from Amazon to rest. The product is genuine and top quality. In short, I couldn't be happier! Thanks Amazon!

I saw this watch at Neiman Marcus but thought the $1,800 price tag was a bit steep for a non-automatic watch. After I saw it on sale here for $1,100, I pulled the trigger (I actually then went back to Neiman and had an extra link removed haha). This is truly a beautiful, well-made watch. I've seen other PVD watches that felt cheap and plastic-y, but this material feels durable (and heavy). I normally prefer thinner watches with smaller faces; I have an old Baume et Mercier that I use to wear to work, but now that I went back to b-school, I wanted something less formal. This watch is stylish yet not tastelessly "blinged" out with diamonds and dials. I get complimented on it all of the time.

Just a note, I didn't know this, but the green hand is the chronograph hand and normally does not move, giving the appearance that the watch isn't working (the seconds hand is actually the smaller dial).

I'm docking a star because on the part where the G goes in and meets the sapphire, the sapphire isn't perfectly level with the edge. It protrudes about half of a millimeter. It's noticeable even if you look closely at the picture. Not a big deal at all and not really even noticeable unless you run your finger over it, but I would've expected the pieces to fit together perfectly for something in this price range.
