Gucci is pleased to introduce Chiodo, a new collection of striking timepieces, whose design is based on the iconic square head nail employed by Gucci since the 1960s. The nail motif has been used in both silver and gold as a decorative detail on the most coveted accessory items. This symbol, like the horsebit, has its origins in the equestrian world and is modeled on the pyramidal nails used to hold the shoe on the horse’s hoof. The Chiodo collection offers two elegant watch case shapes, square and round, that can be enriched by a luminescent mother-of-pearl dial with graceful flinking. The square styles feature a sophisticated case and bracelet, which lend an unusual, jewel-like quality to their appearance. Distinguished by bold angles and contours, these timepieces are available in a rich range of materials and luxurious finishes, and include both gold and solid sterling silver versions. Used only rarely in timepiece manufacturing, the latter represents an intrinsic part of the brand’s innovative and longstanding heritage in watchmaking. Rows of sparkling diamonds can be added for more dramatic and precious options. The fashionable circular-faced versions are in steel, also available with diamonds punctuating either the dial or case, or encrusted on the nail heads used on the bracelet ends.
