Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: Is the Gucci 2600L a quartz or mechanical watch? A: The Gucci 2600L is generally a Swiss quartz model, which means it is battery powered rather than hand-wound or automatic. Periodic battery replacement is therefore a normal part of ownership with this style of vintage watch.
Q: What size is this watch? A: This specific watch is listed at 20 mm. The 2600L is known for its slim rectangular proportions, so it wears as a compact vintage dress watch. Vintage listings for this model are often measured around 19–20 mm depending on how the case is measured.
Q: Can the leather strap be replaced? A: Yes. This watch currently has a black leather strap with a buckle closure, and vintage 2600L models are commonly fitted with replaceable leather straps. Many examples use a 14 mm strap, but we always recommend measuring the existing strap carefully or asking a watchmaker to fit a replacement for the best result.
Q: Is this watch water resistant? A: We recommend treating a vintage watch like this as splash-sensitive rather than waterproof. Older Gucci 2600L examples are often described as non-waterproof, and water resistance can weaken over time, so it is best to avoid showering, swimming or prolonged exposure to moisture.
Q: What condition is this specific watch in? A: This piece is in very good condition with light traces of use. The exterior and internal condition are both noted as very good, and the hardware is described as shiny with light scratches consistent with gentle vintage wear.
Q: Does it come with original box, papers or other product information? A: No. This listing states that no product information is included, so there is no box, card or other accompanying item included with the watch unless explicitly shown or stated elsewhere on the page.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Gucci watch? A: Wipe it gently with a soft cloth and store it away from humidity, direct sunlight, extreme temperatures and strong magnetic fields. For battery changes, seal checks or repairs, it is best to use a professional watch service centre, especially with a vintage piece.
Q: How do you authenticate the watch? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully reviewed for authenticity. For vintage watches, that typically includes assessing the reference number, serial number, construction, materials, finishing and overall consistency with the model. This watch is listed as Gucci reference 2600L with serial number 0040214.
Q: Do you know the production year of this watch? A: The exact production year is not stated for this piece, which is common with vintage watches. The strongest identifiers here are the Gucci reference 2600L, the serial number 0040214 and the Swiss origin label.
