Stepping up in Versace's range
A 37mm yellow gold IP stainless steel case houses a clean black dial with no hour markers, its centre occupied by a raised three-dimensional Medusa head medallion in gold. The fixed bezel is engraved with the brand's Greca geometric pattern, giving the surrounding frame considerable visual weight. Gold-toned hands read against the uncluttered dial without distraction. The 16mm gold-tone stainless steel mesh bracelet adjusts via sliding links to fit a range of wrist sizes, fastening with a butterfly deployment clasp. A sapphire crystal sits above the dial, and the watch carries 50 metres of water resistance.

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 comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's, though at 37mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
