Guess GW1058G8 Arthur Chronograph Black Dial Bracelet Watch - W96446
Ref. GW1058G8
Sits in Guess’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Guess watches we list, which start at £65.
Price range £65 to £245 across 140 Guess watches in stock.The Arthur line is Guess's attempt at a sports-dressed chronograph that reads as intentional rather than accessory-adjacent — a fixed tachymeter bezel, working sub-dials and a black sunburst dial that shifts noticeably between flat light and angled. At 42mm with an 11mm profile, it sits flatter than most quartz chronographs at this diameter, which means the bracelet lies against the wrist without the case riding proud of the cuff. The sunburst treatment on the dial does the work the colour alone cannot: a plain black face would disappear under office lighting, where this one catches and changes.

Learn more about Guess
The Marciano brothers founded Guess in Los Angeles in 1981, building it on denim and advertising that became as well known as the clothes.
The watch line is produced in-house through Guess Watches and Sequel AG, and follows the brand's aesthetic closely: crystal-set bezels, heavy gold and rose gold plating, oversized cases, and dials that favour decoration over legibility. Movements are quartz.
The watches are priced as accessories and sold as such.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
