Gucci Watches, Hip-Hop and Luxury
What is it about Gucci that captured so much of the hip-hop world’s fire. Gucci fashion has always been a cornerstone of hip-hop style but it seems even more so lately with the ascendance of Gucci Mane and Kreyshaun’s recent huge hit which seems to feature her saying the brand name at least three dozen times.
It is likely simply based on the fact that forever the name Gucci has been synonymous with luxury. People who “make it” get Gucci, everyone else wears everything else. It is a way of proving accomplishments and showing off the best of what you have to the world. It is a brand that demands respect and appreciation.
This is rarely better articulated than in Gucci watches, a cornerstone of the fashion empire that screams class when worn on any wrist. If people walk into a room wearing Gucci watches you immediately wonder who they are and what they are about. You have to be someone to have gotten luxury watches like those. It is the ultimate status symbol accessory.
People in the hip-hop community have spent a lot of time trying to let everyone know that they belong there. With an item from Gucci and in particular a Gucci watch the talking has been done for them.
