Emporio Armani AX7186SET Gold Tone Watch And Crystal Necklace Set - W65567
Ref. AX7186SET
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 350 Emporio Armani watches in stock.Part of the Leila collection, this rectangular case is styled to read as jewellery first — the silver sunray dial shifts subtly with the light, and the plain stick indices keep the face uncluttered enough that the gold-tone surround does most of the work. At 27mm wide and 7mm deep it sits flat and light on the wrist, and the integrated bracelet's tool-free link adjustment means sizing it properly takes a minute rather than a trip to a watchmaker. The set includes a matching crystal pendant necklace, so the two pieces arrive already coordinated.

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?
12mm. 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 women's.
Cheapest place to buy
Both Goldsmiths and F.Hinds list it at £189, so choose on delivery and warranty rather than price.
