Emporio Armani Mario AR11472 Men's Watch – 43mm Green Dial Stainless Steel
Ref. AR11472
Sits in Emporio Armani’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Emporio Armani watches we list, which start at £100.
Price range £100 to £359 across 336 Emporio Armani watches in stock.A 43mm round case in black-plated stainless steel sits at roughly 11–12mm thick, carrying enough presence on the wrist without becoming unwieldy. The fixed bezel carries a tachymeter scale, and a mineral crystal protects the sunray green dial beneath. Baton hour markers and luminous hands aid legibility, with a date window sitting between four and five o'clock. Chronograph sub-dials and a 24-hour display add utility to the layout. The 22mm black stainless steel bracelet fastens via a butterfly deployant clasp with push-button release, wearing securely throughout the day.

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?
No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.
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.
