The Gucci name is synonymous with quality and style. Owning a Gucci watch you would expect that it will look fantastic, and be made to last. The Gucci G Class YA055518 offers a simple and elegant design at a fantastic price.

This watch has a minimal black dial. There are no numerals, just hour markers, and minute markers; both are in a sleek silver that complement the steel of the watch.  The hands are square and silver, just like the markers. The watch also displays the date in the 3 o’clock position. Being the only letters on the dial, the logo really stands out at the 7 o’clock position. The case and strap are made with fine polished steel, the strap being in a traditional interlocking pattern.

The look of this watch is understated. This can be unusual, especially for the trend setting Gucci brand, but this watch is simply what a basic luxury watch should look like: free from any big embellishments, flashy colors, or unneeded extra features. This is either a great positive or negative depending on what you are looking for. If you are looking for the latest in watch fashion this isn’t a good buy, because it has utterly timeless look. On the other hand, if you want something that will never go out of style, yet still look great, then this is a great buy. In addition, with it’s minimal look you can  be sure it look fantastic whether you are dressed casually, or formally.

This is a quality product. Gucci is committed to making sure  you get a high quality product. Granted with this watch you are not getting a large amount of cutting edge features. However, It does come with water resistance rated up to 30 meters, and sapphire crystal, but these are common features on luxury watches today.  It also comes with a date display, which may not be very useful, but adds some personality to this watch.

Online you can find this watch for around $500, which is a fantastic price. You are getting all the elegance and quality that comes along with the Gucci name, all for a relatively low price. There is something to be said about a watch that simply classic, and elegant, and this watch pulls that look off well, but at the same time it risks lacking character. There are certainly many other Gucci watches that have something more that sets them apart, be it a special design or material. If you want a pure classic look then this is a great buy.
