* 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 Watch 11/12.2? A: It is a vintage, Swiss‑made quartz bangle watch with a 26 mm case and a white dial. Its signature feature is a set of interchangeable coloured bezels you can swap to match your look.
Q: How do I change the bezels safely? A: Work over a soft surface with clean, dry hands. Gently unscrew the current bezel (usually a short, anti‑clockwise turn releases it), lift it off, align the replacement bezel with the case, and screw it back on with light finger pressure until secure. Do not overtighten and avoid using tools.
Q: Are the bezels compatible with other Gucci models? A: Many 26 mm bezels for the vintage 11/12‑series were designed to fit references such as 11/12, 11/12.2 and some 1100/1200 series. However, sizing and threads can vary between sets and generations, so always check the 26 mm size and series before mixing parts.
Q: What is included with this piece? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section. For this watch, that includes the timepiece itself, a set of 12 interchangeable bezels, and a box.
Q: Is this watch water‑resistant? A: These vintage change‑bezel models are commonly described as not water‑resistant, and seals on older watches can degrade over time. We recommend avoiding showers, swimming, and submersion; keep it away from moisture and have a watchmaker check gaskets if water resistance is important to you.
Q: What movement does it use and how long does the battery last? A: It runs on a Swiss quartz movement. Typical battery life for quartz fashion watches is about 2–4 years depending on use and storage. Have batteries replaced by a professional to protect the case, crystal, and seals.
Q: Will it fit my wrist and can it be adjusted? A: This bangle version fits a wrist up to approximately 17 cm, as noted on this page. Factory sizing is limited; some watchmakers or vintage parts suppliers offer period extenders for the 11/12‑series, but availability varies.
Q: What are the bezels made of, and how should I care for them? A: Most coloured bezels for the 11/12‑series are lightweight plastic/resin, with occasional metal options. Avoid heat, solvents, and impact; wipe with a soft dry cloth and store them separately to prevent scratches.
Q: How should I care for the gold‑plated case and bracelet? A: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear. Avoid perfumes, lotions, detergent, and harsh polishes, which can dull or wear through plating. Keep the crown fully pushed in and store the watch away from humidity and extreme temperatures.
