The Emporio Armani AR11692 is a striking timepiece that fuses contemporary Italian design with robust horological functionality. This chronograph showcases a deep, lustrous green sunray dial that radiates sophistication, beautifully complemented by rose gold-tone hour markers and hands that catch the light with every movement. The two-tone construction — stainless steel paired with rose gold-tone accents — creates a refined contrast that elevates this watch beyond everyday styling into the realm of statement accessories. Powered by a reliable quartz chronograph movement, the AR11692 offers precision timekeeping alongside practical sub-dial complications, making it as functional as it is visually compelling.
At Cassim & Co., we are proud to present this exceptional model as part of our curated selection of ARMANI watches. The 42mm case diameter strikes an ideal balance between presence and wearability, suitable for a wide range of wrist sizes and occasions. The green dial — a colour choice that has become increasingly coveted in modern watch design — provides a refreshing alternative to traditional black or blue, while maintaining a level of versatility that pairs effortlessly with both formal and casual attire. Three chronograph sub-dials and a practical date window at 6 o'clock add functional depth to the aesthetic appeal.
Water resistance to 50 metres ensures this timepiece can withstand daily wear, including hand washing and light splashes, though it is not designed for swimming or submersion. The integrated two-tone bracelet, crafted from polished and brushed stainless steel with rose gold-tone centre links, offers exceptional comfort and durability. Each link is precisely engineered to drape smoothly around the wrist, secured by a fold-over clasp with push-button release. Whether you're attending a business meeting or enjoying a weekend gathering, this Emporio Armani chronograph adapts seamlessly to your lifestyle.
We invite you to experience this timepiece in person at our Mall of the South boutique, where our knowledgeable team can assist with sizing and styling advice. As an authorised Emporio Armani retailer, we provide full manufacturer warranty support and comprehensive after-sales care. Our watch servicing and repairs team is always available to ensure your timepiece performs flawlessly for years to come, with services including battery replacements, bracelet adjustments, and routine maintenance.

FAQ
Q: Is the Emporio Armani AR11692 suitable for everyday wear?
A: Absolutely. This chronograph is designed for daily use, with a durable two-tone stainless steel construction and 50-metre water resistance that protects against incidental splashes and hand washing. The quartz movement ensures reliable timekeeping with minimal maintenance requirements.
Q: What does the chronograph function do on this watch?
A: The chronograph is a stopwatch function that allows you to time events independently of the main timekeeping. The AR11692 features three sub-dials that measure elapsed seconds, minutes, and hours. Push-button controls on the side of the case start, stop, and reset the chronograph.
Q: Can I swim or shower while wearing this watch?
A: While the AR11692 is water-resistant to 50 metres, this rating is designed for light splashes and hand washing only — not for swimming, showering, or water sports. We recommend removing the watch before any water activities beyond incidental contact.
Q: How often will the battery need replacing?
A: Quartz watch batteries typically last between 2 to 3 years, depending on usage of complications like the chronograph. When replacement is needed, visit Cassim & Co. for professional battery service using genuine components to maintain water resistance integrity.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, the integrated bracelet can be professionally sized by removing or adding links. Our team at Mall of the South provides complimentary bracelet sizing with your purchase to ensure a perfect, comfortable fit.
Q: What is the difference between the stainless steel and rose gold-tone sections?
A: The rose gold-tone elements are created using PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) coating over stainless steel. This process creates a durable, long-lasting finish that resists fading and wear significantly better than traditional plating methods.
Q: Does this watch come with the full Emporio Armani warranty?
A: Yes. As an authorised Emporio Armani retailer, Cassim & Co. provides the complete 2-year international manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Your warranty card and proof of purchase will be included with your timepiece.

Care Guide
- Wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove fingerprints, oils, and everyday residue.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals including solvents, detergents, perfumes, and cosmetics, as these may damage the finish or movement.
- Do not operate the chronograph pushers or adjust the crown while the watch is wet, as moisture may enter the case.
- If the bracelet becomes soiled, clean it gently with a soft brush and lukewarm water, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- Remove the watch before engaging in high-impact sports, heavy manual labour, or activities involving strong vibrations.
- Have the battery replaced by a qualified watchmaker when the watch stops or shows signs of power loss. Delaying battery replacement may cause leakage that damages the movement.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not being worn, preferably in its original box or a dedicated watch case.
- We recommend having your watch inspected by our service team every 2-3 years to ensure water resistance seals remain intact and the movement functions optimally.
- The rose gold-tone PVD finish is durable, but avoid abrasive contact with hard surfaces to preserve its lustrous appearance.
