Product Information
Full details
The Gucci Grip 38mm in black is designed for fashion-forward individuals who appreciate avant-garde horology that blends vintage inspiration with a contemporary, architectural aesthetic. Its standout benefit is the unique, minimalist disc-based display housed in a striking black-on-black silhouette that acts as both a functional timepiece and a high-fashion accessory. While the design is undeniably bold, users should note that the unconventional display requires a moment of adjustment to read the time compared to traditional analog hands.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting the time on the Gucci Grip is straightforward using the integrated side crown. Pull the crown out carefully and rotate it to set the discs to the current time, then push it back in firmly to ensure the seal remains intact.
To keep your watch in optimal condition, wipe the sapphire crystal and bracelet with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to remove oils and fingerprints. Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, perfumes, or lotions, as these can affect the finish of the black coating. Since this is a quartz watch, you may need a professional battery replacement approximately every 2-3 years, which should be performed by an authorized Gucci service center to maintain the watch's integrity.
