Emporio Armani Three-Hand Date Black Stainless Steel Watch and Bracelet Gift Set
Ref. AX7101
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.At 46mm and 12mm thick, this sits broad and flat on the wrist — a proportioning that reads more assertive than heavy, and keeps the silhouette relatively clean on larger wrists despite the generous diameter. The all-black monochrome treatment runs through case, dial and bracelet without interruption, the baton markers and minute track keeping the face legible rather than decorative. The set pairs the watch with a companion accessory, making it a coherent thing to give or receive rather than a watch sold alongside an afterthought. The Y-link bracelet adjusts via removable pin links and fastens through a push-button folding clasp — practical details that hold up in daily use without any ceremony.

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?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
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
