The greatest fashion crime of all – the assassination of Maurizio Gucci ordered up by his wife Patrizia Reggiani aka Lady Gucci – has finally been given the big bucks biopic treatment that it so deserves.

The over the top adaptation stars Lady Gaga as Reggiani and Adam Driver as Maurizio Gucci, and naturally, fine AAA UK replica watches feature prominently in the film.
While the Swiss make the world’s 1:1 best fake watches, it is usually rich Italians who show us how to wear them with style and personality. Think Gianni Agnelli wearing his luxury replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watches over his shirt cuff, or Valentino Garavani’s gold Cartier Pasha worn low on his wrist. At one point in the film Maurizio discusses buying high quality copy Patek Phillippe ref:2523 watches, an ultra-rare world timer which carried a pre-sale estimate of $3.8 million when it was up for auction in Geneva in April this year.
Al Pacino, who hams it up as Aldo Gucci, chairman of the fashion house from 1953 to 1986 and the eldest son of Guccio Gucci, founder of the brand, can be seen in the trailer wearing a Breguet Classique Moonphase. Should Aldo suddenly feel the need to know the exact amount of time until the next full moon whilst in a Milanese nightclub, then this cheap replica watches wholesale is just the thing.
However, as eagle-eyed watch observers have already noticed Breguet did not make this top online fake watches in the 80s. But even though it’s not historically correct, it remains an elegant watch for a high-rolling Italian fashion mogul. Look closely and you’ll see that the strap is worn a little loose, so that Swiss movements replica watches is slung low on the wrist and therefore visible under Aldo’s shirt cuff. This is the correct, Milanese way to wear a watch.

Except that this particular model of the Overseas was not released until 1996 – another horological misstep. But again, who cares? It looks like it belongs to the period.
Finally, and perhaps most mysteriously, Jared Leto’s dramatic transformation as Aldo Gucci’s son, Paolo, complete with lilac corduroy suit accessorised with a piece of tissue stuck up his cocaine-ravaged nostril, sees him wear big gold fake watches shop site with the Gucci red and green stripe on the dial. Was Gucci making Swiss made replica watches in the ’80s? Perhaps it’s a piece from the archive? No one knows, but why let period detail get in the way of a good timepiece?
