Steel case, brown leather, champagne dial. It is the warmest of the family and the one that reads least like an office watch – the pale gold dial against brown leather gives it a softer, older feel than the black or silver versions. Case and Wrist Presence A rectangular polished steel case, 25mm across and noticeably taller than wide, with gently curved sides that follow the wrist. The bezel is minimal and the crystal is flat, so almost the whole case front is given to the dial. The crown is a small fluted disc at three. Dial and Legibility Champagne with a fine vertical grain running the length of the rectangle. Black Roman numerals stretch down both long sides and the Emporio Armani eagle sits above centre. A small seconds sub-dial is set low with 60 and 30 printed in it. The hands are dark and narrow. Black printing on a light gold ground gives clean contrast without the hardness of black on white. Movement and Functions Quartz. Central hours and minutes, seconds on their own small register. That separation is what keeps a narrow dial from feeling crowded. Strap and Fit Brown leather with a crocodile-style grain and stitching along both edges, on a pin buckle. Brown leather ages more visibly than black: it lightens where it flexes and darkens where the skin touches it, and after a year it will not look like it did new. That is the appeal. Do not wear it tight – the fold at the buckle is where a strap always fails first. Who This Watch Suits Someone who wants a formal watch with some warmth in it. Champagne and brown is a combination that suits daytime wear better than black, and the steel case keeps it from tipping over into gold. Care and Maintenance Keep the leather dry and let it dry naturally if it does get wet – a radiator will stiffen it permanently. Wipe the case with a soft cloth. A worn strap is easily replaced with any leather of the right lug width, which is worth doing before the stitching goes rather than after.
