Vince Camuto is a fashion designer who specializes in making women’s shoes, handbags, and of course watches for both men and women.
The brand is named after the late Vince Camuto himself who was the former CEO of the brand until his death in 2015. Vince Camuto also helped create the fashion brand Nine West which was later sold for $900 million in 1999. Nine West also sells wristwatches, but these are completely unrelated to the Vince Camuto brand.
In terms of watch sales, the Vince Camuto brand peaked around the time of his death in early 2015. This popularity lasted for a couple of years before subsiding to back where it began. As of now, the Vince Camuto watch brand is not too well known as it does not have a large advertising budget.

Are Vince Camuto Watches Good Quality?
On the whole, timepieces made by Vince Camuto are bang average fashion watches.
Much like many other fashion brands, Vince Camuto is not primarily a watchmaker and instead makes them as an accessory to their main business (which is women’s shoes and handbags).
Not only this, but you will find that Vince Camuto watches use Miyota quartz and mechanical movements. These are not bad quality by any stretch of the imagination but are very normal to find in low end fashion watches. Brands such as Fossil, Coach, DKNY, Diesel, Armani, and Hugo Boss all make their watches from the same materials and movements as Vince Camuto. Therefore you will not find a significant difference between any of these brands in terms of watches.
Lastly, Vince Camuto watches are made in China – which is once again exactly the same as other fashionable watch brands. There is nothing wrong with this, as China can assemble watches to a decent degree of quality. It does however prove that Vince Camuto is not a luxury watch brand.
The Best Vince Camuto Watches
Vince Camuto Sports Chronograph
This sports style chronograph is a rather modern design and features a lugless case. Although this is a rather unusual design, it does help the watch wrap around your wrist more easily since it is not stopped by overbearing lugs. As the case size is 45mm, this does help the watch fit more easily on men with smaller wrists.
Other than this, the watch mostly follows the style of modern sports watches with a black and gold case. The dial of the watch also has a very standard layout with 3 subdials and a date window.
Overall, this watch is very average value for money and can be compared with other fashion brands that make watches in a similar style such as Hugo Boss.
Vince Camuto Mens Automatic Skeleton Watch
As Vince Camuto is a fashion brand within the watchmaking industry, it is rare to see a mechanical watch. This skeleton dial timepiece is fairly loud and showcases an NH35 movement which is usually found in the Seiko 5 series.
Made of stainless steel, the watch has a 42mm dial, which is certainly big enough to display the inner workings of the automatic movement.
Compared to other mechanical watches, this is a little on the expensive side given that this movement is found in $150~ watches rather than something double the price.
Vince Camuto Minimalist Mens Black Watch
There is nothing too remarkable about this watch. It uses a very simplistic dial layout with no numbering used at all. This isn’t a problem since the hour markers are very clearly defined as the silver color contrasts well against the black dial.
This kind of watch is also available from other fashion brands such as Fossil but is generally not quite as cheap as Vince Camuto.
