Description
The Emporio Armani Gianni T-Bar AR1840 is a refined expression of contemporary Italian design, blending understated elegance with meticulous craftsmanship. This ladies' timepiece features a sophisticated 32mm round stainless steel case finished in warm rose gold PVD, perfectly complemented by a striking two-tone bracelet that alternates between polished stainless steel and rose gold-toned links. The grey sunray dial is adorned with Roman numeral hour markers at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock positions, whilst the remaining hours are elegantly indicated by crystal-set indices that catch the light with every movement of the wrist.
At the heart of this timepiece is a precise Swiss-made quartz movement, ensuring reliable timekeeping with minimal maintenance. The slimline 8mm case profile sits comfortably on the wrist, making this watch an ideal companion for both formal occasions and everyday wear. Rose gold-toned hands sweep gracefully across the dial, protected by scratch-resistant mineral crystal glass. Water resistance to 50 metres provides peace of mind during daily activities, though this is a dress watch designed primarily for elegance rather than aquatic pursuits.
As an authorised retailer for ARMANI watches, Cassims & Co. is proud to offer this distinguished timepiece with full manufacturer warranty support and authentic documentation. The Gianni T-Bar collection represents Emporio Armani's signature aesthetic—bold yet restrained, fashion-forward yet timeless. The interplay between the cool stainless steel and warm rose gold tones creates a versatile palette that transitions seamlessly from boardroom to evening events, whilst the crystal-set hour markers add a touch of understated glamour.
Whether you're building your watch collection or seeking a signature daily-wear timepiece, the AR1840 offers exceptional value within the luxury fashion watch segment. Our watch servicing and repairs team is available to assist with battery replacements, bracelet adjustments, and any after-sales care you may require.

FAQ
Q: Is the AR1840 suitable for everyday wear?
A: Absolutely. The Emporio Armani Gianni T-Bar AR1840 is designed as a versatile dress watch that transitions beautifully from professional settings to social occasions. Its 50-metre water resistance provides adequate protection for daily activities including handwashing and light rain exposure, though it should not be worn whilst swimming or showering.
Q: What type of movement powers this watch?
A: The AR1840 is equipped with a reliable quartz movement, offering exceptional accuracy and requiring minimal maintenance. You can expect approximately 2-3 years of battery life under normal usage conditions, after which our service team can replace the battery for you.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, the two-tone bracelet can be professionally adjusted to ensure a perfect fit. When you purchase this watch from our Johannesburg showrooms, complimentary sizing is included. For online purchases, we recommend visiting our store for professional sizing, or you may take the watch to a qualified watchmaker.
Q: Are the crystals on the dial genuine?
A: Yes, the hour markers feature genuine crystal embellishments that are securely set into the dial. These crystals add a refined touch of elegance whilst maintaining the watch's sophisticated aesthetic.
Q: What is the difference between rose gold PVD and solid rose gold?
A: Rose gold PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) is a highly durable coating process that bonds rose gold-toned material to the stainless steel case and bracelet links. This offers the luxurious appearance of rose gold at a more accessible price point, whilst providing excellent resistance to fading and wear. It is not solid gold, but rather a sophisticated finishing technique used in premium watch manufacturing.
Q: Does this watch come with official Emporio Armani packaging?
A: Yes, as an authorised Emporio Armani retailer, we supply this watch in its original branded presentation box with all accompanying documentation, including the international warranty card and instruction manual.
Q: Is this watch suitable as a gift?
A: The AR1840 makes an exceptional gift for any discerning woman who appreciates refined design and Italian craftsmanship. Its elegant two-tone aesthetic appeals to a wide range of tastes, and the prestigious Emporio Armani brand carries international recognition. We offer gift wrapping services and can include a personal message upon request.
Warranty
- This Emporio Armani watch is covered by a 2-year international manufacturer warranty from the date of purchase.
- The warranty is valid only when the watch is purchased from an authorised Emporio Armani retailer, such as Cassims & Co.
- Coverage includes manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, including scratches to the case, crystal, or bracelet, nor deterioration of non-metal straps.
- Battery replacement is not covered under warranty, as batteries are considered consumable components with a limited service life.
- Water damage resulting from misuse, failure to ensure the crown is properly closed, or exceeding the stated water resistance rating is excluded from warranty coverage.
- Damage caused by accidents, improper use, unauthorised modifications, or servicing by non-authorised personnel will void the warranty.
- To claim warranty service, the original purchase receipt and completed warranty card must be presented.
- Warranty service must be performed by an authorised Emporio Armani service centre—contact Cassims & Co. for guidance on warranty claims and authorised service locations.
- This warranty does not affect your statutory rights under South African consumer protection legislation.
Care guide
- Clean the case and bracelet regularly using a soft, lint-free cloth to remove fingerprints, oils, and daily residue.
- For deeper cleaning of the two-tone bracelet, use lukewarm water with mild soap and a soft brush, ensuring the crown is fully closed. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely with a soft cloth.
- Avoid exposing the watch to harsh chemicals, perfumes, cosmetics, or cleaning agents, as these may damage the rose gold PVD coating or dial finish.
- The 50-metre water resistance rating is suitable for everyday splashes and light rain, but the watch should not be worn whilst swimming, showering, or participating in water sports.
- Never operate the crown whilst the watch is wet or submerged, as this may compromise the water resistance seal.
- Store your watch in its original box or a dedicated watch case when not in use, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and magnetic fields.
- Quartz movements typically require battery replacement every 2-3 years. Have the battery replaced by an authorised service centre to maintain water resistance integrity and warranty coverage.
- If you notice the watch losing time or the second hand jumping in irregular intervals, this indicates the battery requires replacement—attend to this promptly to prevent potential movement damage.
- Avoid impact, knocks, and extreme temperature fluctuations, as these may affect the movement's precision and the watch's overall condition.
- The mineral crystal is scratch-resistant but not scratch-proof—avoid contact with abrasive surfaces and materials harder than the glass.
- Have your watch inspected periodically by our service team to ensure gaskets remain supple and water resistance is maintained.
