0 Comment

The Gucci G-Frame YA128504is a sophisticated ladies’ designer watch for those who prefer a sleek, minimalist look. The watch features a stainless steel case embedded with diamonds on the top and bottom edges. There are crystal accents on the bezel to enhance the look of the diamonds. The bracelet is made from stainless steel and curves inwards, becoming thinner in width towards the bottom which has a rounded jewelry clasp.

The Gucci G-Frame is a modern stylish, jewelry watch.

The G-Frame YA128504 is entirely silver colored including the dial and the bracelet, giving it a smooth, seamless look which heightens its appeal as a jewelry timepiece. The dial itself is perfectly square giving it a modern look, and is quite small in size, measuring only 14 millimeters in diameter. There are no numbers on the dial, only the Gucci logo and the black minute and hour hands. All of these factors contribute to the minimalist design of the watch, making it discrete yet functional.

This watch would be perfect for a woman looking to dress up a business suit, or simply as a stylish jewelry piece to accent any outfit. The diamond edges on the top and bottom of the watch case give it a fancy, high-end look without being over-the-top. The slightly curved stainless steel bracelet is a nice touch which adds to the streamlined, delicate look of the watch.

As with all Gucci watches, this is a Swiss-made watch boasting Swiss quartz movement. The watch surface is made from scratch-resistant, anti-reflective sapphire crystal which is found in most higher-end watches and is of much better quality than the mineral crystal used in less expensive watches. The G-Frame YA128504 is also water resistant to a depth of 30 meters (100 feet), however Gucci does not recommend getting this watch wet as it may affect the longevity of the watch. A luxurious, yet durable watch which doubles well as a piece of jewelry and looks much classier than its price tag!

Pros:

  • Sleek, sophisticated look
  • High-end quality
  •  Relatively low price for a watch of this class
  • Modern, square shaped design of the watch case
