An octagonal case is unusual on a small women’s watch, and it changes the whole feel of this one. The corners are cut flat on all eight sides, so instead of a soft round disc you get something closer to a cut stone in a setting – a shape that reads as jewellery before it reads as a watch. \n\n Case and Wrist Presence \n The case measures 24mm and is taller than it is wide, in polished stainless steel. Each cut corner catches light separately, which is why a small polished case like this throws more sparkle than a round one of the same size. It sits flat and close – at 24mm across, it is genuinely small, and it suits a narrow wrist where a 32mm case would dominate. \n\n Dial and Legibility \n White mother-of-pearl fills the octagonal opening, in a single piece with the natural cloudy figuring left visible. There are only three markers: a crystal at three, one at nine, and one down at six. The rest of the dial is empty apart from the eagle logo at twelve and the wordmark below. Rose gold hands stand out cleanly against the pale shell. With three markers you are estimating the time between them – fine for a glance, not a watch for timing anything. \n\n Movement and Functions \n Quartz, time only. No date and no seconds hand. \n\n Bracelet and Fit \n A two-tone bracelet with polished silver links and rose gold connecting bars set between them, so the rose gold reads as a repeating stripe rather than a full row. Two-tone is the sensible pick if you wear both silver and rose gold jewellery. The links are small and flexible, giving good drape on a slim wrist, and the bracelet is sized by removing links. \n\n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who wants a small, angular dress watch rather than another round one. The octagon and the two-tone bracelet both push it toward jewellery, and it stacks well with fine bangles. If you want a watch you read constantly, choose one with twelve markers instead. \n\n Care and Maintenance \n The rose gold sections are plated over steel and will wear at the clasp before anywhere else. Take the watch off in the gym and keep perfume and hairspray away from it. A soft dry cloth is all the polished steel needs; never use metal polish, which strips plating. Dust collects around crystal settings – a soft brush lifts it. \n\n Technical Specifications \n \n Brand Emporio Armani \n Model AR11146 \n Gender Women’s \n Case size 24mm \n Case shape Octagonal \n Case material Stainless steel \n Dial White mother-of-pearl with crystal markers \n Movement Quartz \n Bracelet Two-tone stainless steel \n EAN 4053858931169 \n \n\n Buying With Confidence \n The movement is covered by a 24-month international manufacturer warranty, excluding battery and normal wear.
