The same small 32mm steel case and patterned white dial, here on a plain tan leather strap. Swapping the bracelet for leather changes the character completely – lighter on the wrist, quieter, and easier to wear with casual clothes. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n Stainless steel, polished, 32mm across, with a bezel thin enough that the dial dominates. The lugs are short and hold the strap close to the case, so the whole watch curves down onto the wrist rather than sitting proud of it. Total presence is modest: this is a watch you notice on someone when you are close to them, not across a room. \n Dial and Legibility \n White, textured with the repeating eagle motif that shows up as soft light and shadow across the surface. Rose gold Roman numerals mark nine and six, with slender applied markers at the remaining hours and the logo under twelve. Rose gold hands. It is a warm, low-contrast face – very easy on the eye, less easy to read quickly in poor light. There is no date cut into it and no luminous coating. \n Movement and Functions \n Quartz, battery-driven, hours and minutes with a sweep of seconds. Set it once and it holds time without winding; expect a battery change every couple of years depending on use. \n Strap and Fit \n A smooth tan leather strap with polished steel keepers, the same width as the case at the lugs. Smooth leather in a light tan shows marks more readily than a dark grained strap – it will pick up a wear line where it bends and darken slightly with skin contact, which is part of how it ages. Take it off before swimming or showering, because repeated wetting is what makes light leather go stiff and blotchy. When the time comes it is a simple strap to change. \n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone who wants a small, warm, easy watch for daily wear. Tan leather with a steel case and rose gold dial detail sits well with denim, linen and knitwear, and is less formal than the same watch on a metal bracelet. \n Care and Maintenance \n Keep the leather out of water and direct sun. Wipe the case with a soft dry cloth. If the strap gets damp, dry it away from heat – a heater or a car dashboard will crack it. \n Technical Specifications \n Brand Emporio Armani Reference AR1988 Case diameter 32mm Case material Stainless steel Dial Patterned white, rose gold Roman numerals Movement Quartz Strap Brown leather Case shape Round \n Buying With Confidence \n Ships new and unworn in its original box with the manufacturer’s paperwork, backed by a 24-month international manufacturer warranty on the movement, excluding battery and normal wear.
