If you are a distinctive yet practical man looking to accessorize your debonair style, the Gucci Men’s YA126222 G-Timeless Brown Chronograph G Dial Watch is a great choice. As a woman with taste, I would be proud to hold my man’s hand with this unique yet delightfully classical dressing on his wrist. Its neutral autumn colors stop far short of gaudy unlike some of the similarly-priced Gucci comparables such as the blue Gucci Men’s YA126223 or YA126220 Gucci Timeless collection alternatives. With its tastefully placed unassuming insignia and blend of warm colors, this G-Dial will complete a preppy ensemble seamlessly while maintaining integrity with the Gucci brand and its European ambiance via the recognizable trademark patterns. I have yet to see another Gucci watch for men quite like the G Dial, which offers additional distinction for the shopper who likes to stand out. In the high-end watch market, at $795 retail (cheaper if you comparatively shop online), the GUCCI Men’s YA126222 G-Timeless Brown Chronograph G Dial Watch is guiltlessly inexpensive. Being a relatively new watch on the market, there are fewer listed online than I would hope to find, but you can find one if you really look. It’s definitely worth the effort and the price.

The GUCCI Men’s YA126222 G-Timeless Brown Chronograph G Dial Watch is fairly standard feature-wise. As far as inner workings, it offers no significant extras relative to comparable men’s watches apart from the Gucci name,  a classy feel, and recognizable Gucci aesthetics. You can purchase the G-Timeless Brown Chronograph G Dial watch online at a discount from its original retail price at $795, bringing the price down into the $500-$600 range. If you’re into stylish diving, the GUCCI Men’s YA126222 G-Timeless Brown Chronograph G Dial watch is water resistant for up to 99 feet. Like many other Gucci watches in its price range, it offers antireflective-sapphire crystal. Of course, all Gucci watches boast of high quality Swiss quartz movement. The Brown Chronograph G Dial’s biggest drawback is its newness and consequent rarity. Therefore, part replacement may be a challenge.

In summary, the GUCCI Men’s YA126222 G-Timeless Brown Chronograph G Dial Watch is a smart, stylish buy that is worth the price. It offers aesthetic versatility for the classic preppy or European ensemble. Whether you are shopping for yourself or you are the lucky lady friend of a man with debonair, distinctive taste, be one of the first to add this unassuming, unique, and versatile accessory to the makings of a classy wardrobe. It may be tough to find, but isn’t your wardrobe (or your beau’s) worth the effort? Mine certainly is.
