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: What is the Gucci Change Bezel 26mm 1994 Watch? A: It is a vintage Swiss-made Gucci ref. 1100-L quartz bangle watch from 1994 with a 26 mm case, white dial and the signature interchangeable bezel design that lets you change the look in seconds.
Q: What size is it and what wrist will it fit? A: The case measures 26 mm, giving it a petite, jewellery-like vintage look on the wrist. This particular watch fits a wrist of up to approximately 16.5 cm, so it is best suited to a slim to average fit.
Q: How do the change bezels work? A: The bezels are designed as removable rings that swap over the watch case. When changing one, work over a soft cloth and use gentle, even pressure so you do not mark the crystal or plating. If a bezel feels tight, it is best not to force it.
Q: Are extra bezels included with this listing? A: This listing is confirmed with the box. Any extra bezels beyond the one fitted to the watch should only be assumed to be included if they are shown in the photos or listed in the product information.
Q: What movement does it use, and will it need a battery? A: This model uses a Swiss quartz movement, so it is battery powered rather than manual or automatic. Under normal use, a quartz battery often lasts around 2 to 3 years, and battery changes are best handled by a qualified watchmaker.
Q: Is this watch water resistant? A: Vintage Gucci Change Bezel watches should be treated as not water resistant. We recommend keeping it away from water, steam, soaps and high humidity, and removing it before showering, swimming or other wet activities.
Q: Can I still find replacement bezels for this model? A: Yes, vintage replacement bezels for the classic Gucci Change Bezel family are still commonly found on the secondary market. Fit can vary slightly between eras and sets, so they should always be test-fitted gently. Modern Gucci Play bezels are not made for this vintage model.
Q: What condition is this watch in? A: This piece is described as being in very good overall condition. It shows light scratches on the case and bracelet, with shiny hardware that has surface scratches and light signs of use internally, which is consistent with a well-kept vintage watch.
Q: How is authenticity checked? A: A Retro Tale states that each item is examined through a rigorous in-house authentication process, with checks of craftsmanship, materials and construction, so you can shop with confidence.
