Gucci Watches Loves to Glam It Up With the Chiodo Collection

Just for the ladies, the Gucci Chiodo Series offers a variety of designs in a link bangle bracelet style that show off the artistic side of the house of Gucci. The design is based on all things equestrian and employs the iconic square nail head shape used since the 1960's. All that is old is once again new in this updated collection. In both gold and silver, the design is modeled after the pyramidal shaped nails used to attach the shoe on a horse. There are two design options in the case shapes; one is round and the other square.

The square shaped case is a sophisticated look that has a jewel-like quality. It has bold contours and angles and each comes in a variety of materials including sterling silver and gold. Diamonds can be added for more drama. The round case is available in stainless steel and is also available with diamonds on with the dial, the case or on the nail heads of the bracelet ends.

The case is 36mm in diameter, 8mm thick and is driven by Swiss quartz precision with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. The bracelet has a hook buckle clasp and it is water-resistant to 30 meters or 100 feet. There is a design element on the bezel at 4:30 that adds a bit of dimension and acts as an arrow to the date window; it offsets the round dial shape beautifully. There are options that cover this arrow element in pave diamonds to give it a bit of visual interest. Some options will feature a couple of diamonds on the dial at 3, 6 and 9 o'clock.

The case and the bracelet are both done in a highly polished stainless steel with a fixed bezel. Silver tone hands and hours markers are featured. When it comes to fashion, Gucci is always ahead of the pack whether it be in watches, fashion, jewelry or handbags. The bracelet of this timepiece can stand on its own; it doubles as a piece of jewelry. For the fashionista who likes to stack her bracelets, this watch can handle the competition and will look stunning with other bracelets surrounding it. Bangles have always been in fashion and this watch is sure to become a staple in any woman's watch wardrobe. The best part about this collection is that each watch is so affordable a person can get more than one.
