Twenty-eight millimetres is small even by the standards of women’s dress watches, and the AR2511 uses that to its advantage. All-steel, all-polished, with a white dial and crystal markers, it is closer in feel to a bracelet than to a watch, and the narrow multi-link band reinforces that. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n A round stainless steel case, 28mm across, polished all over, with a bezel so thin that from a metre away you see only the dial and the bracelet. The case is shallow, so it sits flat against the wrist and does not catch on sleeves. On a slim wrist the proportions are right; on a wider wrist it will read as a very small watch, which may be exactly the intention. \n Dial and Legibility \n White with a soft sheen, marked with twelve set crystals and a fine printed minute track inside them. There are no numerals and no date. The hands are polished steel and slim. Because both dial and markers are bright, contrast is low and the crystals work by sparkle rather than by outline. Good light helps. \n Movement and Functions \n Quartz, hours and minutes only, battery driven. No complications to set and nothing to correct at the end of the month. \n Bracelet and Fit \n A polished stainless steel bracelet made up of several rows of small links, which is what gives it the fluid drape you would expect from jewellery rather than the stiffness of a wide sports bracelet. Sized by removing links. On a watch this small, a loose bracelet will let the case slide onto the back of the hand, so err on the snug side. \n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who wears silver rather than gold and wants a small, bright watch that works as an everyday piece and still looks right in the evening. It stacks well with thin bangles. \n Care and Maintenance \n Wipe the bracelet with a soft dry cloth regularly, since the many small links trap skin oils and lotion. Keep the watch away from chlorinated water and out of the shower. A polished case picks up hairline scratches from daily contact; a jeweller’s cloth lifts most of them. \n Technical Specifications \n Reference AR2511 Brand Emporio Armani Collection Classic Case diameter 28mm Case material Stainless steel Case shape Round Dial colour White Markers Crystal-set dots Movement Quartz Functions Time only Bracelet Stainless steel Gender Women’s EAN 4053858698253 \n Buying With Confidence \n Covered by a 24-month international manufacturer warranty on the movement, excluding the battery and normal wear.
