Versace VE5G00226 Greca Edge Two-Tone Ladies Watch
Ref. VE5G00226
Sits in Versace’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Versace watches we list, which start at £409.
Price range £409 to £899 across 37 Versace watches in stock.The Greca Edge takes its name from the key-fret motif that has run through Versace's visual language since the house's foundation — here translated into a square case whose geometry reads more like architecture than horology. The 3D Medusa head at twelve and the house name beneath it leave no ambiguity about what this is and where it comes from. At 30mm the case is compact, but the hard angles of a square profile carry more presence on the wrist than an equivalent round would, and at 7.65mm thick it disappears under a cuff entirely. The two-tone bracelet follows the case logic: alternating finishes that catch light differently across the same surface, giving the dial's silver a coordinated frame rather than a plain one. The butterfly clasp opens cleanly without the fiddle of a standard folding buckle, though resizing the bracelet means removing pins rather than using a tool-free micro-adjustment — worth knowing before the first wear.

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.
Will the glass scratch?
Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
What size strap does it take?
18mm. 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.
Will it fit my wrist?
Lug-to-lug is 36mm, which suits wrists from roughly 15cm (6 inches) upward.
Lug-to-lug decides fit more than case diameter does.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's, though at 36mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
