Emporio Armani Men’s 43mm Chronograph Watch (AR1941)

\n A green dial is rare at this end of the market and it is the whole reason to look at the AR1941. Deep\nbottle green under a polished steel bezel, with a tan leather strap that pushes the colour further\ntowards outdoors than office. \n\n Case and Wrist Presence \n Stainless steel, round, 43 mm, polished on the bezel and the flanks. The lugs curve down hard at\nthe tips so the strap breaks away close to the case. Two chronograph pushers sit above and below a\nfluted crown at three, all in the same bright steel. \n\n Dial and Legibility \n Dark green, deep enough that it reads black in poor light and unmistakably green in daylight —\nwhich is the appeal. Applied silver Arabic numerals mark twelve, two, four, six, eight and ten, with\nprinted batons at the odd hours. Three sub-dials sit at nine, three and six, and the date is cut in at\nfour with a matching green wheel behind it, which is a detail cheaper watches skip. The hands are\npolished steel and stand out well against the dark ground. \n\n Movement and Functions \n Quartz chronograph with a date. The top pusher runs and halts the stopwatch; the bottom one returns\nthe hands to zero. The central sweep hand counts seconds while the registers accumulate minutes and\nhours. The date advances at midnight and needs a manual correction after a short month. \n\n Strap, Clasp and Fit \n Tan leather, smooth and lightly waxed, run full width into the lugs. Green and tan is an old\ncombination and it works here for the same reason it works on a pair of boots — the warm strap keeps the\ncold dial from looking severe. Tan is the most delicate leather colour to own: it shows water marks,\nink and dye transfer, and it darkens unevenly if you get it wet. \n\n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who already owns a black and a white dial and wants something with a colour in it. The green\nis dark enough to pass as formal at a distance and obvious enough up close to be the point. A 43 mm\ncase suits wrists of roughly 17 cm and larger. \n\n Care and Maintenance \n No water rating is printed on the dial, so keep it clear of taps, rain and swimming. Wipe the steel\nwith a soft cloth. Leave the stopwatch stopped when you are not using it — a running chronograph hand\ndraws current continuously and takes months off the battery. \n\n About the Brand \n Emporio Armani’s steel chronographs are usually black, white or blue, and green surfaces only\noccasionally. When it does, the brand tends to pair it with tan rather than brown or black, which is why\nthis reference looks less like the rest of the range than the specification suggests. \n Technical Specifications Reference AR1941 Brand Emporio Armani Case diameter 43 mm Case material Stainless steel Case shape Round Dial Green Hour markers Arabic numerals Movement Quartz chronograph Calendar Date at four o’clock Strap Tan leather EAN 4053858630369 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.
