Rose gold over a case built as a single piece, with the strap running through slots cut into the metal rather than sitting between lugs. Warm metal on a pale croc-embossed strap makes for a soft, low-contrast watch, and the Roman numerals in matching rose gold keep the dial in the same register. \n\n Case and Wrist Presence \n The case measures 43mm and the outline stretches well beyond the dial on either side, so it takes up a lot of wrist. Rose gold plating is polished right across the surround, which is a large uninterrupted area of shine. If you want a watch that gets noticed, that is exactly what this does; if you would rather it stayed quiet, look at something smaller. \n\n Dial and Legibility \n Rose gold Roman numerals printed on a pale silver dial, with a small seconds sub-dial under the centre and a thin minute track at the edge. Rose gold on white is easy on the eye but not high contrast, so the dial is best read in daylight. The numerals are large enough to orient you in a glance even when the exact minute is harder to pick out. \n\n Movement and Functions \n Quartz, hours, minutes and small seconds, no date. The crown is a small rose gold-tone knurled button at three, recessed into the case so it does not press against the hand. A battery every couple of years is all the maintenance it asks for. \n\n Strap, Clasp and Fit \n Pale croc-embossed leather threaded through the case slots. Because the strap emerges from inside the case rather than from lugs, it lies flat against the wrist immediately, which helps a wide watch sit better than it otherwise would. Light leather shows dirt along the edges sooner than dark, so it will want an occasional wipe with a barely damp cloth and a proper dry afterwards. \n\n Who This Watch Suits \n Someone building a look around warm metals who wants a large watch rather than a delicate one. It sits well with tan and cream and is a poor match for anything silver. \n\n Care and Maintenance \n Rose gold plating wears at the highest points first, which on this case means the outer edges of the surround. Keep it away from abrasive surfaces and never use metal polish, which cuts straight through plating. No water rating is printed on the dial, so keep the watch dry, and keep the pale leather away from water entirely. \n\n About the Brand \n This integrated case has been part of the Emporio Armani range for years, produced in steel, gold tone and rose gold tone.
