Gucci U-Play Women's Watches

It feels like a while since Gucci released a new woman's line. The brand does really well with their timepieces for women, and with some very good classic designs, I can see why. For some reason I feel like they opened the doors for a brand like Chanel to come in and be as popular as they are.

The new U-Play collection comes in two sizes (27mm wide and 35mm wide) in steel. The dial is a play on the Gucci "G," with two of them being flipped and mirrored. The look is designer in feel, and has the fun feel of a sketched drawing. The overall look of the watch is youthful and sophisticated, with an avant garde twist. The watch is meant to be quite interactive for the wearer. Both versions of the watch has a case that can be removed from the strap and bezel housing, and switched into a new watch. There are a series of different colors and materials available. I haven't played with it yet, but the idea is interesting. The case itself is in steel, and contains a Swiss quartz movement. Aside from that details are scant. Look for these U-Play model timepieces for women from Gucci soon.
