Stepping up in Guess's range
At 26mm, this sits firmly in jewellery territory — the crystal-set bezel and sunray dial are doing the same work as a bangle, and the watch reads that way on the wrist. The mesh bracelet reinforces it: the interlocking construction drapes rather than sits, moving with the wrist in a way that a conventional bracelet link does not, and the case flows into it without a visible break. The crystals at the hour positions keep the dial uncluttered while still catching light at an angle, leaving the sunray finish room to shift between silver and near-white depending on what falls on it.

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?
No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's.
