Prefer life’s simple treasures, but still seek something special? Like the linked look? Well, you can find a union of the uncomplicated and the unique in the Gucci G-Gucci YA125508 Women’s Watch . This mid-size ladies timepiece is both sophisticated and hip. Its appeal is in its shape. With large links polished to a sharp shine, it is an accessory to catch and capture the eye. The round-edged, boxed hoops of stainless steel make for a geometric bracelet that will flatter the wrist while ticking time.

Bearing both the Gucci name and Swiss made seal, this architectural bauble carries with it the quality inherent in each manufacturer’s moniker. Its quartz movement and scratch resistant/ anti-reflective sapphire crystal face guarantee long-lasting performance and durability. As with other Gucci watch collections, it is water-resistant and promises the endurance of the finest stainless steel, which combined, make for a feature-rich wrist watch worthy of your possession. The blue sun-brushed dial, however, is what makes this bangle time piece worth consideration if you are on the hunt for something funky and contemporary.
