Yellow gold rather than rose, and it changes the character of the watch entirely. Against warm gold the shell dial reads cooler and whiter, and the ring of crystals set inside the markers picks up the metal rather than the dial. \n\n Case and Wrist Presence \n A 32mm round case in gold tone plated steel with a thin polished bezel. There are no lugs; the mesh runs through narrow gold brackets above and below the case so the bracelet curves from the case edge. The case is flat and light, and at this diameter it wears as an everyday watch rather than as an occasion piece. \n\n Dial and Legibility \n White mother-of-pearl with the natural mottling of real shell. Gold Roman numerals mark nine, three and six, applied gold batons fill the remaining hours, and a circle of small clear crystals is set inside them, well away from the markers. The eagle sits at twelve. Two gold hands and no seconds hand. Because the crystals sit inboard of the hour track, they add light to the dial without making the markers harder to find, which is the practical advantage of this layout. \n\n Movement and Functions \n Quartz, hours and minutes only. It runs on a battery, needs no winding, and has no date to correct at the end of a short month. \n\n Bracelet and Fit \n A gold tone mesh bracelet, woven fine and completely flexible. Mesh adjusts continuously instead of in whole-link steps, which usually means a better fit than a link bracelet can manage. It does need more cleaning: the weave traps dust, lint and soap far more readily than solid links do. \n\n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who already wears yellow gold jewellery and wants the watch to match rather than contrast. The mesh is soft enough to stack with bangles without scratching them. \n\n Care and Maintenance \n Rinse and dry the mesh regularly, and avoid folding or crushing it. Keep perfume, hairspray and hand cream off the plating. Use a very soft brush around the crystal ring and never a polishing cloth on the case. \n\n Technical Specifications \n \n Reference AR11321 \n Brand Emporio Armani \n Case diameter 32mm \n Case finish Gold tone \n Dial White mother-of-pearl with crystal set ring \n Markers Roman numerals and applied batons \n Movement Quartz \n Functions Hours, minutes \n Bracelet Gold tone stainless steel mesh \n \n\n Buying With Confidence \n Covered by a 24-month international manufacturer warranty on the movement, excluding battery and normal wear.
