Emporio Armani Men’s 41mm Watch (AR1915)

\n Strip the sub-dials out of a chronograph and you get something like the AR1915: the same wide,\nnumeral-marked dial layout, but with only a date window interrupting it. A rose gold-tone case, a white\ndial and a brown leather strap, at a wearable 41 mm. \n\n Case and Wrist Presence \n Round, 41 mm, rose gold-tone and polished. Two millimetres smaller than the chronographs in the\nsame family, which matters more than it sounds — 41 mm sits comfortably on a medium wrist and the\nthin bezel makes the dial look larger than the case. The lugs turn down steeply and there are no pushers,\nso the flanks stay clean apart from the fluted crown at three. \n\n Dial and Legibility \n A flat white dial with black printing, which is the most legible combination Emporio Armani puts on\nthis case. Applied Arabic numerals mark twelve, two, four, six, eight and ten, with printed batons between\nthem and a fine minute track at the edge. The date sits in a small aperture at four, printed dark on\nwhite. Rose gold hour, minute and seconds hands run over the top; the seconds hand is a thin needle that\nmakes it obvious at a glance the watch is running. \n\n Movement and Functions \n A quartz movement with a date. Setting the time is a single crown pull; the date advances at midnight\nand needs correcting by hand at the end of any month shorter than thirty-one days. \n\n Strap, Clasp and Fit \n Brown leather with a crocodile grain and stitching in a matching brown along both edges. It is a\nfull-width strap to match the case, and there is enough length in it for a larger wrist. Leather takes\nabout a fortnight to settle; after that it holds a curve and stops pressing at the lugs. Sweat and heat\nare what age a leather strap fastest, so take the watch off before exercise. \n\n Who This Watch Suits \n Anyone who wants one watch that works with a suit and with jeans. White dial, rose gold case, brown\nstrap — it is deliberately neutral, and the clean three-hand-plus-date layout means it never looks busy.\nThe 41 mm case suits wrists from roughly 16 cm upwards. \n\n Care and Maintenance \n The dial carries no water rating, so keep the watch dry — hand-washing, rain and swimming are all\noutside what it is built for. Wipe the case with a soft cloth. Rose gold plating wears thin at the edges\nof the case back and the lug tips over years, so avoid resting it hard against desks and keyboards. \n\n About the Brand \n Emporio Armani sells this case in steel, black and rose gold, with and without a chronograph. The\nthree-hand version is the quietest of the set, and the only one where the date is the sole thing\nbreaking the dial’s symmetry. \n Technical Specifications Reference AR1915 Brand Emporio Armani Case diameter 41 mm Case shape Round Case finish Rose gold-tone Dial White Hour markers Arabic numerals Movement Quartz Calendar Date at four o’clock Strap Brown crocodile-embossed leather EAN 4053858563865 Buying With Confidence Every watch ships new and unworn in its original box with the manufacturer’s paperwork, and carries a 24-month international manufacturer warranty on the movement, excluding the battery and normal wear.
