Versace V11040015 Hellenyium Brown Dial Two-tone Men's Watch
Ref. V11040015
The Hellenyium GMT is Versace's case for the house entering serious watchmaking territory — a collection that takes the Medusa motif and builds it into a watch with genuine dual-time capability rather than purely decorative credentials. The GMT hand tracks a second time zone independently, driven by a Ronda Swiss calibre, and the 24-hour marked bezel is in gold-plated steel, which keeps it legible without breaking the two-tone scheme running through the whole piece. At 42mm and only 10mm deep, the proportions are notably slim for a watch carrying this much surface interest. The sunray brown dial shifts in light — warmer under tungsten, cooler and more bronze in daylight — and the gold-tone Roman numerals and Medusa head at twelve read as deliberate house signatures rather than decoration applied afterwards. On the wrist, the alternating silver and gold-plated links give the bracelet enough visual weight to match the dial without feeling heavy, and the double push-button deployant keeps things secure while allowing a clean release.

Learn more about Versace
Gianni Versace founded his house in Milan in 1978 and built it on maximalism — bold prints, Greek key borders, and the Medusa head he took from the floor of the Roman ruins he played in as a child. Donatella Versace took over after his death in 1997.
The watches are Swiss made, produced through Timex Group's Swiss division, and carry the house iconography prominently: Medusa medallions on dials and crowns, Greca patterns on bezels and bracelets.
Movements are Swiss quartz and automatic. The watches sit above the licensed-fashion tier on build, while remaining unmistakably design-led rather than horology-led.

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.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.
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 comparedWhat size strap does it take?
20mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
