Emporio Armani Chronograph Two-Tone Stainless Steel Green Dial Mens Watch
Ref. AX1966
Sits in Emporio Armani’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Emporio Armani watches we list, which start at £90.
Price range £90 to £359 across 281 Emporio Armani watches in stock.The Spencer collection sits at the more expressive end of what Armani Exchange produces — watches built around presence rather than restraint. The textured green dial against the black-and-green bezel and gold-tone accents is a deliberate combination, and at 44mm it wears with the confidence that combination demands. At 179 grams on a full steel bracelet, there is real substance on the wrist, and the integrated link design keeps the whole thing reading as a single piece rather than a case dropped onto a bracelet. The Miyota JS25 inside is a Japanese-made quartz chronograph movement, widely used because it is dependable and straightforward to service — here doing its job quietly behind a dial that does most of the talking.

Learn more about Emporio Armani
Giorgio Armani launched Emporio Armani in 1981 as a younger, more accessible line beneath the main label. Watches followed under licence, and since 2000 they have been produced by Fossil Group, which holds the manufacturing and distribution rights.
The watches are fashion accessories rather than horological objects, and the house does not claim otherwise. Movements are bought-in quartz and Japanese automatic calibres, cased in designs that follow the clothing line's aesthetic: muted palettes, clean dials, and a preference for restraint over ornament.
That restraint is the appeal. Where much of the licensed-fashion category reaches for size and shine, Emporio Armani generally does not, and the better references in the line are quietly proportioned watches at prices well under the Swiss entry point.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedWhat size strap does it take?
22mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
Cheapest place to buy
Goldsmiths is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
