The Emporio Armani AR11500 is a striking chronograph timepiece that combines contemporary diver-inspired aesthetics with Italian design sensibility. Featuring a vibrant green sunray dial complemented by a matching unidirectional rotating bezel, this 43mm quartz chronograph is crafted from at least 50% recycled stainless steel—a testament to Emporio Armani's commitment to sustainable luxury. The bold green colourway, contrasted by crisp white indices and hands, delivers exceptional legibility both on land and in water, with 100 metres of water resistance making it suitable for swimming and snorkeling.
The integrated stainless steel bracelet flows seamlessly from the case, creating a cohesive silhouette that sits comfortably on the wrist despite the watch's substantial presence. Three chronograph sub-dials track elapsed time with precision, while a date window at 4 o'clock adds practical everyday functionality. The mineral crystal protects the dial from scratches and impacts, and the screw-down crown ensures water resistance integrity. This is a watch for the modern gentleman who appreciates bold colour, functional complications, and conscious craftsmanship.

FAQ

A: The AR11500 is powered by a precision quartz movement, offering reliable timekeeping with minimal maintenance. You can expect battery life of approximately 2-3 years under normal use.
Q: Can the green bezel rotate in both directions?
A: No, the bezel is unidirectional, rotating only counter-clockwise. This is a safety feature commonly found on diver-style watches to prevent accidental adjustment that could overestimate remaining dive time.

Q: How do I operate the chronograph function?
A: The chronograph is operated via the two pushers flanking the crown. The upper pusher starts and stops the chronograph, while the lower pusher resets the chronograph hands to zero. The three sub-dials track elapsed seconds, minutes, and hours.

Care Guide
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater, chlorine, or chemicals to prevent corrosion and maintain the bracelet's lustre.
- Dry the watch thoroughly with a soft, lint-free cloth, paying attention to the bracelet links where moisture can accumulate.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or impact, which may affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Ensure the crown is fully screwed down before any water exposure to maintain the 100-metre water resistance rating.
- Have the water resistance tested annually if you regularly use the watch for swimming, as gaskets and seals can degrade over time.
- Replace the battery promptly when the watch stops to prevent potential leakage that could damage the movement.
- Clean the bracelet periodically with a soft brush and mild soapy water to remove dirt and oils that accumulate between links.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the dial colour and case finish.
- Avoid operating the chronograph pushers or crown while underwater, as this can compromise water resistance.
- Service the watch every 3-4 years with an authorised service centre to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
