Emporio Armani Men’s 41mm Chronograph Watch (AR1846)

White dial, tan strap, steel case. It is the friendliest version of this chronograph – the brown leather takes the formality out of a white dial and leaves a watch you can wear with a shirt or a t-shirt without thinking about it. \n\n Case and Wrist Presence \n Round, 41mm, polished stainless steel, with faceted pushers, a ribbed crown and short lugs that turn down towards the strap. At 41mm on leather this is an easy-wearing size – broad enough to look like a chronograph, narrow enough to fit under a cuff. The polished case picks up the tan of the strap at the edges, which softens the outline against skin. \n\n Dial and Legibility \n White, with three recessed sub-dials at twelve, three and six printed in black with fine graduated tracks. Applied silver stick markers ring the hours and there is a small framed date at four thirty. Black on white is the highest-contrast dial in the range, so this is the version to choose if you actually intend to use the chronograph rather than just look at it. Even the smallest graduations on the counters resolve at arm’s length. \n\n Movement and Functions \n Quartz chronograph with date. Centre seconds for timing, sub-registers for elapsed minutes and hours plus a 24-hour reference, and pushers for start, stop and reset. No winding and no rotor. \n\n Strap, Clasp and Fit \n Mid-brown leather, smooth-finished, stitched along the edges and tapering to the buckle. Brown leather in a lighter shade shows its life more than dark leather does – it lightens at the fold, picks up a sheen where it meets the wrist and darkens near the buckle. Some people replace it at that point; most decide it looks better than it did new. \n\n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who wants one chronograph that does not read as formal. The tan strap pairs with brown shoes, olive and denim, and the white dial keeps it bright enough for summer. \n\n Care and Maintenance \n Keep light brown leather away from water in particular – it stains and dries with visible tide marks in a way that dark leather does not. Wipe the case with a soft dry cloth. Have a watchmaker fit the battery so the case back reseats correctly. \n\n Technical Specifications \n \n Reference AR1846 \n Brand Emporio Armani \n Case diameter 41mm \n Case material Stainless steel, polished \n Case shape Round \n Dial colour White \n Markers Applied stick \n Movement Quartz chronograph \n Functions Chronograph, date \n Strap Brown leather \n Gender Men’s \n \n\n Buying With Confidence \n Covered by a 24-month international manufacturer warranty on the movement, excluding battery and normal wear.
