A pale blue dial is the unusual choice here. Most watches at this size go white, black or mother-of-pearl; this one uses a soft powder blue with a fine sunray brush, and the rose gold-tone markers sitting on it give a warm-against-cool pairing that neither colour would manage alone. \n\n Case and Wrist Presence \n The steel case measures 32mm and is polished all over, with a bezel set with a full ring of small crystals. On the wrist it reads as a proper watch rather than an ornament, and the crystals catch light along the outline rather than across the dial, which keeps the blue clean. \n\n Dial and Legibility \n Slim rose gold-tone batons at the hours, with two small crystals set into the dial and matching thin hands. Light blue is a bright background, so the darker rose gold markers stand out well in daylight. The crown at three carries a blue cabochon that picks up the dial colour, which is a small detail but the sort that makes a watch feel designed rather than assembled. \n\n Movement and Functions \n Quartz, hours and minutes. No date, nothing to reset beyond the time after a battery change. The crown is small, in keeping with the case, so use fingertips rather than nails when pulling it out. \n\n Strap, Clasp and Fit \n A two-tone bracelet, steel outers with rose gold-tone centre links, closing on a fold-over clasp. The links are small and rounded, so the bracelet drapes rather than sitting rigid, and the fine link size means it can be sized close to exact. A folding clasp keeps the bracelet a closed loop while you put it on, so there is no moment where the watch can drop. \n\n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who wears both silver and rose gold jewellery and wants a watch that will sit next to either. The blue dial makes it an everyday watch rather than an evening one. \n\n Care and Maintenance \n No water rating is printed on the dial, so keep it out of the shower and the pool. Two-tone bracelets need the link gaps cleaned occasionally, since soap residue dulls the rose gold plating first. Use a soft brush and plain water, and dry the clasp thoroughly. Keep liquid away from the set stones on the bezel. \n\n About the Brand \n Emporio Armani’s smaller women’s watches tend to be built around a case shape and a colour rather than a complication, and this is a clear example: no date, no sub-dial, just a dial colour you do not see often. The eagle is printed at twelve. \n\n Technical Specifications \n \n Brand Emporio Armani \n Model AR11597 \n Case diameter 32mm \n Case material Polished stainless steel, crystal-set bezel \n Case shape Round \n Dial Light blue sunray with rose gold-tone batons \n Movement Quartz \n Functions Time only \n Bracelet Two-tone steel and rose gold-tone, folding clasp \n Gender Women’s \n \n\n Buying With Confidence \n A 24-month international manufacturer warranty covers the movement, excluding battery and normal wear.
