Emporio Armani Meccanico Men’s 42mm Watch (AR60062)

The only watch here built to get wet. A steel dive-style case, a black rotating bezel with a sixty-minute scale, a silicone strap, and 100 METERS printed on the dial in white — which is the number that changes what you can do with it. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n Stainless steel, round, 42mm, with a coin-edge rotating bezel that gives your fingers something to grip and a broad crown protected by the case flank. The bezel adds visual bulk, so this wears like a proper tool watch even though it is a millimetre smaller than most of the range. Medium to large wrists suit it; the silicone strap keeps the weight manageable. \n Dial and Legibility \n Black, with a repeating wave-like texture across the whole surface and openings through it that show the movement beneath. Broad applied batons mark the hours with a triangle at twelve, and the hands are wide and clearly shaped. Meccanico is printed beside the brand name and 100 METERS below the centre. The markers are much larger than on the dress models in this range, which is the right decision on a watch you might be reading through water or in a hurry. \n Movement and Functions \n Hours, minutes and seconds, with the movement visible through the dial. The bezel rotates and its sixty-minute scale is set by lining the marker up with the minute hand — that gives you an elapsed-time reading without touching the crown, useful for a dive, a run or anything else where you want to know how long you have been at it. \n Water Resistance \n The dial states 100 metres. In practice that covers swimming, showering and surface water sports comfortably. It does not cover scuba diving, and it does not cover operating the crown while the watch is wet — always check the crown is fully pushed home before the watch goes near water. Rinse it in fresh water after the sea or a chlorinated pool. \n Strap and Fit \n Black silicone with a moulded rib pattern down its length. Silicone is the practical choice on a water-resistant watch: it does not absorb water, does not stiffen when it dries and can be rinsed clean. It attracts dust and lint more than leather does, which a wipe with a damp cloth sorts out in seconds. \n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who wants the open-dial look on a watch they can wear to the beach. It is the only piece in this family that does not need taking off before a swim, and the bezel gives it a job the others do not have. \n Technical Specifications \n Case diameter 42mm Case material Stainless steel Bezel Rotating, sixty-minute scale Dial Textured black with skeleton openings Water resistance 100 metres (10 ATM) Strap Black silicone Reference AR60062 \n Buying With Confidence \n A 24-month international manufacturer warranty covers the movement, excluding battery and normal wear. It arrives new and unworn in its original box with the manufacturer’s paperwork, ships nationwide with tracking, and may be returned unworn in its original packaging under the Consumer Protection Act. The bezel clicks in one direction only, which is deliberate — it can shorten a timed interval by accident but never lengthen it.
