Gucci watches are
some of the best watches to collect.
Gucci watches are the kind of
investments that withstand time and
the vagaries of fashion. If there is
one thing that is a testament to
man's genius as a tool maker it has
to be the wristwatch. The clock and
the watch share the same principle
of operation and have parts that are
equivalent to one another. But
nowhere is man's greatness as
toolmaker apparent than in the
watch, because to make a watch, one
needs to manufacture durable and
precise parts some of whose widths
approach the fineness of the human
hair. It is really a marvel to
behold these watches and it is
sometimes staggering to think about
how these watches were manufactured.
Imagine the technology at the time
some of these fine watches were
manufactured and it is almost
unconceivable how they've surmounted
some of the challenges of making
such fine and precise cuts on some
of the watch parts. Check it out in
any encyclopedia you have available
with you and you'll see that a watch
has hundreds of parts and that each
of these parts were made with
accuracy and precision by some of
the most dedicated of craftsmen.
The Gucci watches
are really very interesting to
collect. As the history of Gucci
tells it, the house of Gucci in its
early years, was exclusively a
leather goods store, selling men's
and women's accessories such as
handbags, shoes and belts. Somewhere
along the way, as the company's
leather goods developed a following
among the moneyed, the company
diversified its line to include ties
and scarves. And it was probably
this introduction of fabric goods
which started Gucci's reputation as
a fashion house. Gucci stores really
are known for the quality
merchandise they sell, whether in
the 1920s or the 2000s. Many of the
early timepieces they sell came from
a consortium of Swiss watch
manufacturers and distributors, the
Severin Montres Group, the only
company exclusively licensed to
manufacture and distribute the Gucci
watches. It was only in 1997 when
the Gucci Group bought Severin
Montres, cementing their position in
the watch industry. The classic
Gucci watch retains its allure by
mixing the old with the new, with
many of the new classic Guccis out
in the market a reinterpretation of
the original Gucci watch. Gucci
watches are not just about their
style and timeless appeal. Behind
the good looks of each watch is a
masterpiece of Swiss timekeeping
technology.
